this is totally necessary research

...and not just me procrastinating on bigbang.

You're my friends. How would you hide a dead body?

ETA: You guys are too good at this! *eyes you* I should have specified it has to be findable. Hidden by someone who knows what they're doing, but findable by someone who is extremely good at such things.

Ha, I haven't seen Goodfellas. I am imagining you saying it and it still sounds pretty damn funny. ;)

Yeah, between walls is good. With cat litter, as per Kelleigh.

It's actually a relatively minor plot point! But I want authenticity. *g*

I'm so excited about this story. I wasn't sure I was going to be able to pull off bigbang. There is still doubt, ack, I was stalling out a few days ago, but I have a plot and 16K words and I can't face having put all this effort in and crashing just short of the finish line, so... I soldier on!

oh 16k? so close! you can do it!

[electricalgwen.livejournal.com]

I know, woot! Except I don't think it will be finished at 20K. *eeps*

[laisserais]

LOL ain't it always the way? the milestone just whizzes by and you keep going and going and going...

I don't know! This is new territory for me! I've never written anything this long or complex before! IT'S ALL RATHER SCARY.

OH MY GOODNESS, REALLY? you're doing your first big bang, and its SPN? wow! i guess you really have crossed that threshold. lol i keep thinking of you as a reluctant dabbler. *G*

but i know you can do it. actually, i can't WAIT for you to do it. *glee* new gwen!fic ftw

Heh, yeah! The longest thing I ever wrote in BtVS was Dies Irae, and I think that came in at just over 10K. I find that in general, there are a lot more long fics in SPN. Or maybe I just never found or wasn't interested in the long ones in BtVS.

I really debated signing up for bigbang, I wasn't sure I'd be able to do it (and there is still doubt, ha!), but everyone was getting so excited about it and I thought I'd give it a try. The cheerleading is helpful! :)

Oh man, I am hardly a reluctant dabbler. *g* I guess you weren't around last summer when I was posting about my conversion. I haven't been hugely productive fic-wise (but what's new) but I've hit J2AU, J2 "non-AU", haiku (hmm, in a comm, meant to post it here, will get on that), and even a Dean/Sam ficlet...

Caprica! I'm behind on it at the moment, but whoa. I love the ideas (it was particularly fun that it took right off from all kinds of stuff I was playing with in Dollhouse meta) and they've managed to get me hooked despite the fact I know how it all ends (always a problem with prequels, for me.) I think it's neat how the characters are all flawed, in some way - they're all complex.
