I need to enlist somebody to beat me over the head.

Self I don’t care how much the AU wish world is making you want to write “Rule Number Three” your Enchanted Forest Rumbelle/Swanfire AU, you are not allowed! Right now the priority is RSS and Painting Layers of Love. Then you need to finish all your other WIP’s before starting anything new.

Repeat after me self *dangerous tone* “before starting anything new.”

I’m actually really pleased the hiatus is as long as normal. I need the three months to get some fics finished.

Mr. Gold can be a strong motivator… in many ways.

Indeed he can. 

@still-searching47, I feel your pain, my dear. *gets out cheerleading pom poms* You can do it! 

@rowofstars I’m jealous of your gif finding skills, that is awesome!

Also, thank you both. Gold is definitely a good motivator heh and yeah most things will get written eventually. It’s just a matter of butt in chair, hands on keys and focusing. It’s the last part, the focusing that I struggle with sometimes but I’m loads better than I used to be, so practice, practice 🙂

Do you have a prompt doc or folder? Just file it away. #Focus

Ah the elusive focus heh 🙂 Yeah I do have a doc and it has … I’ve lost count of how many ideas on it. Probably more than I’ll ever manage to write because I generate new ideas quicker than I can write them. Actually this idea has been on my list for a very long time. It was the second idea I ever had for Once fanfic.

What’s happened is that in the six months I’ve been writing fanfic for Once, it’s slid down the priority list as new ideas came in that took precedence. This wishworld Enchanted Forest AU, has just sparked the idea again and made it zoom to the top of the pile.

I did think that after I finished my WIP’s my next fanfic would be GoldenLace Bonnie and Clyde (I was going to do that for this months Monthly Rumbelling smut prompt but I don’t think I’ll have time), or the Hustle/Leverage AU (just because I do love this idea), but now I’m pretty certain it’s going to be the Enchanted Forest Rumbelle/Swanfire AU.

This is why I’m thankful for the hiatus. A good chunk of my words last month went on Fix-it fics because I’d watch episodes and then need to fix them.
