It's pretty good. Writing this way, I mean. I mean I've had this story kicking around for a little while; this way I *am* actually able to just write it out in my down-time, instead of hurryhurryhurry writeandpostitNOW kinda thing. I wrote 3000 words of thesis yesterday, and 3000 words of fanfic in the evening. I feel good.
Anyway, it's a John-centric story, which you wouldn't have convinced me I'd be doing a month ago. Field of Mars was really damn hard to get the voice and characterisation for - both because John is emotionally unavailable and because the trouble with writing intelligent characters into conflict is that you have to outsmart them. And that can be a delicate/difficult thing to construct.
ANYWAY.
I've been strangely excited by the idea of this gen zine, god knows why. Maybe it's that time of year again, I'm having nostalgia, a revisionist reminiscence where all I remember is the glee of getting a bunch of authors I like to write for me me meee, so I can hold all their hotass stories in my hot little hands.
So, if I were running the gen SPN zine the same way I ran Lotripping, this'd be my wishlist for authors (in alphabetical order):
