I signed up for
smallfandombang last month, did I mention? I'm not sure I did.
I've never done a big bang before---I can remember being seriously confused when I came back to LJ after many years of absence and saw all these stories tagged with bigbang. I thought for a couple of days that people were really, really into The Big Bang Theory!
As big bangs go, this one is nice and small. To go along with the name, I suspect. It's 10k, which would make the finished story the longest thing I've written since my attempt at NaNo in '03. (I think I managed about 20k before giving up.)
Today I junked my original idea and embarked on a new and slightly crack-tastic one. I'm blending Hawaii Five-0 with various and diverse fairy tales. There are talking mice (who would rather learn police procedure from 80s cop movies than a manual), poisoned pineapples, an unlikely Sleeping Beauty, troll bridges and more! I've managed 3k today, which has absolutely stunned me. I can't remember the last time that words poured out like this... it's brilliant!
(This is also my first foray into H50 fandom. I am slightly nuts, I think.)

Date: 2011-10-09 11:47 pm (UTC)I've read loads of H50 fic since I really got into it about half-way through the first season. Eagerly awaiting s2 beginning over here, but the boxset of s1 arrived yesterday so I can keep myself entertained for a while!
I am hoping that this will turn into a modern fairy tale that I can be proud of :)
