Ha ha! It is to laugh...AKA my writing life

[neotoma]

I have not been able to get the hob story to move an inch yet again -- this is the second time I tried to write it for the sabriel_mini and the second time it didn't budge.

So I'm picking up 'The Man Comes Around' again since it's already at 22K words, even though it was utterly jossed by the end of season 5 -- I started writing it after 5.10 during the mid-season hiatus. Which means that I had anticipated the car-based puns for the Horsemen, but not which ones (I had Death drive a Pinto, etc), and didn't have Anna or Gabriel get killed. Also there is an alligator-style egg mound in the back of Bobby's scrapyard that an entire garrison of angels is getting broody over.

alchemyalice gave me a critique of the partial draft way back when, but I could sure use volunteer alpha readers. I know that I need to work on the Dean&Sam stuff, and rewrite a lot of the early part of the story -- I started it as a Dean/Cas fic and it mutated into a Sam/Gabriel one. Anyone want to volunteer?

Dean's dance of disgust is kind of hilarious.

I'd love to see them.

It gets worse when he realizes that's not just the exit, but also the entrance, and Cas is a girl, so - OH GOD DRINK THE PAIN AWAY.

Remind me, and I can get to them later this week. Blog post or e-mail?

Dean's coping mechanisms need work.

Posting it is a lot of fun, but if you don't feel comfortable having it up, email is fine too. I'll be traveling this weekend, so I don't know that I'll be able to respond a lot to it.
