Check in #1

A wee bit later than intended because I was travelling and actually forgot... oops!
The tiny bit at the bottom with excused is for anyone who knows ahead of time that they may not be around when the check in posts go up and a quick email or PM to let me know is absolutely fine. Life happens.


Pull up a chair, grab a drink and snack :)


1. Have you started your fic yet?
2. Have you got lots of ideas or just one or two?
3. Do you have other commitments first?

1. Yes. I got some of my thoughts out during Camp NaNoWriMo plus hand written prep before that in terms of story but I really need to put together a serious outline so I don't get completely lost in the weeds. Also decide on structure.

2. My story is a riff on an old piece I wrote for Apocalypse Kree called "40 Days". Atlantis locks down after receiving word that Earth is under attack. They find out later that the attackers were the Aschen and the Lucien Alliance and that the planet is effectively lost to them. I'm going back in to flesh out those ideas and adding it what happens next. Since I set it within the context of the episode "Ripple Effect", Janet is alive (she came through to the prime universe with an SG-1 team during the incident). Disclosure Day happens because of the Prior Plague and Atlantis is a step away from being a fully independent colony state. Everything gets messy because of the influx of survivors, including some non-SGC civilians. SO, there's an idea, now I just have to make it all work.

3. I'm committed to [community profile] soul2soul which posts at the end of this month, another challenge in a non-DW community that's due near the end of June. There's a writing intensive I hope to take in June that's none fic related. And there might be some quick fic that happens in July when Leverage: Redemption premieres. But this overall is my main jam.
