"The Distance to You" updated, current to do list

You know, I was going to work on ES today. I have about half of the next part written actually, but I deliberately did not because of a few of the so-called reviews I got on it. Oh, I'll finish it. Likely tomorrow or Wednesday. It'll even be posted sometime before the weekend, but I felt like being bitchy today. I still don't like being told to hurry up and update when I only posted a part this past weekend. I also don't like being called an evil bitch for leaving it in a cliffhanger-y situation. I like cliffies, folks. As a writer, I am allowed to like such things. As a writer, I am allowed to leave it hanging if I wanna. Please don't get testy with me about it... because then I reserve the right to be a crabby bitch about it right back at you and not work on things... even though I could have. Oh well, writing this part to "The Distance to You" was just as satisfying.

And for the record... I am not evil. I'm merely wicked. There's a difference.

the whole fic enchilada

So if you *think* I was talking about you in my last post, but you're not sure, then I probably was NOT talking about you. The people I was speaking of were very clearly rude. Pushy I can handle. There are a lot of you who are borderline pushy when it comes to updates. I can handle that. I may not like it, but I can deal with it because that's usually not all you say. Most of the time very good reasons for being slightly pushy are listed, and I actually like that. You give me your reasons for wanting the update quickly, I'm not so ticked at you. I wish you'd have a bit more patience with me, but I get it... because you've said why you'd like more. It's the... "you need to update with the next part NOW" people with no reasons, that's all they've said about it, that bug me. Or the ones who resort to name-calling because I'm not boring and wrap every part up nicely. That's so not my style, folks. I like to keep people guessing.

Now, I have made some fic plans. For the rest of this month and a big one for October. Then come November, we have NaNoWriMo again... which I am doing again because I actually managed to write a whole book in a month last year. I have yet to decide whether I will do an original or start a fanfic. I plan on finishing "The Distance to You" and "Jealous Face" before the end of this month. I would like to finish "Eternal Sunshine", "Unique with Cheek", and "Chasing Amy" soon. I plan to write at least one or two minis fot the School/Learning challenge thing-y at TtH. Just haven't had time with all the the_fund stuff I've been working on. In October, I plan to write a collection of Halloween minis for the Fic-for-all. I sort of forgot about that. The last time I wrote any was for Valentine's. I kind of quit because I was running out of suggestions for pairings. Because when you post a fic, you get to post another pairing. I mostly write BtVS/HP, and there are only so many characters there, you know. So I might open a post with suggestions for who YOU would put in there.

I'm trying to decide something with this. It'll make sense later. pinkpunk713 this is for that thing we were talking about. Not all of them mean what people think they mean. I'm being weird and sneaky.

title: Eternal Sunshine of the Slytherin Mind
author: echo
part: 8
rating: 18
disclaimer: Much as I'd like to lay proper claim on Blaise, these characters aren't mine. They belong to JK Rowling.
summary: Though Voldemort has fallen, someone is after Katie Bell for being on the Potter side of the war. She gets one of the most interesting and unlikely protective custody details ever issued.
AN: This part was also requested by bitteliten for the_fund.

Just a reminder that telling me to hurry up and update the next part mere days after I've posted one is not the way to ensure that I don't become an unreasonably cranky beyotch with you.
