logicgunnI have one goal for the coming year: finish a fic without it turning into a fluff-fest.
I started posting fanfiction in June 2019. I've shared 14 works so far, and most of them have one thing in common - they're adorable. I love writing fluffy fics, but the thing is, even when I intend to write something dark and gritty it just turns into a fluff fest. My biggest work, The Long Dark, is a fluffy post-apocalyptic fic, despite the dark tags. Who knew that was even possible? I certainly didn't, but when I tried to write a dark and depressing first chapter it kept edging lighter until I just gave up and just wrote it how it came out. I love it for what it is, but this year, hopefully this month, I'm going to finish a BAMF!John, Whumped!Rodney fic. I've started it and so far so good. Fingers crossed I can keep it gritty and stop it turning into candyfloss.
On a more personal level, last year I was pretty unwell and had to take some time off work. I had my first day back yesterday and it went okay, so this year I'm hoping to get my life back on track. Maybe also go on a holiday with my wife. We've never been abroad together, even though we've been together for over seventeen years. That would be awesome.

I've written the intros to TWO angsty fics, so hopefully one of them will work out the way I plan!
