writethisfanficMiddle of the first week! How are things so far?
And for a discussion topic, how about we talk about research? As usual, the fanfic flamingo has relevant commentary:
[Background — a six piece pie style colour split in three shades of pink. Foreground — the long neck and face of a pink flamingo.

Does your current fic require any research? If so, want to tell us what about? Where do you tend to find research materials for your fic? Is it difficult to pull yourself out of research to get back to writing, or is research your least favorite part? And how do you organize all your research once you've dug it all up?

And my favorite question! In 3 words or less, how are you feeling about the fic?

Date: Thursday, May 5th, 2011 11:16 (UTC)Luckily for me, my husband owns the company and I am the boss's wife. My duties take up maybe 20 out of 40 hours of the week so I'm really lucky and do get a lot of time to play, though I only work on the smut writing when I am the only one in the office. Which doesn't happen often. :)
