Okay, so I haven't posted a chapter of my fanfic in a while.../Buddha

But, I swear, I'm getting to it!

My firefly addiction has hit an all time high. I've joined the fine folk at http://www.stillflying.net, which has been tons of fun, but has cut into my fanfic time a little. I'm officially the casting director, finding actors to virtually play the roles of original characters, which is tons of fun and not too time consuming. But, because I'm me, I want to write too, and it just so happened that one of the writers was going on vacation and they needed someone to step up and write and episode...

Well, of course, I volunteered. So far its been going very well. Matt, the writer, had very good notes for how the episode should go, so writing it has been very fun. This, however, really has stolen my "Over the Hills..." time. What can I say? Geminis are known for their ability to rapidly switch projects. Sorry? I am getting back to working on "Over the Hills..." though. I am half way through chapter eleven, having a little bit of trouble working out the finer points of this chapter's "job" (I swear, if I ever writing another fanfic, they're going to steal something; teenage sabotage is complicated, damn it!), which of course made it ten times easier to forgo writing my fanfic so that I could write the virtual firefly episode... but I swear, things are starting to come along.

I'm not going to be doing much writing this weekend. I may do some more before I go to bed tonight and I might have sometime to work on either this or the virtual firefly episode tomorrow, but Friday night I have a friend coming to visit (which should be awesome) and on Sunday I am going to Chicago with my Buddhism in Asian America class to visit a Buddhism temple and participate in their services. By the way -- anyone have a question they would like answered by a Buddhist monk? I haven't though of one yet. :-( I will have to get up around 4:40ish so that I have enough time to get ready and walk to the parking lot where we are meeting (damn U of I for being so big -- its a half hour walk) so that I'll be there by 6:15 am. Maybe I can get away with getting up at 5:00...

Anyway, I just wanted to let everyone know.

Peace.

Well what do you know!!!

We're on the same project! I'm proof reading over at stillflying.net

Anyway, better to take your time and get it right than rush the ending to a so far brilliant fic.

Don't worry, we'll still be here to read when you get it finished!

I so wanted to join the project over at http://www.stillflying.net when I was asked, but I was already behind on my own story and I knew I just would not be able to commit to a time frame with the way things are in my life right now... :o( It would have been a lot of fun, and maybe someday I'll be able to join you!

I never get any writing done on weekends... I always want to, but it never happens :o/

Anyway, enjoy your Buddhism temple visit! Wish I could think of a question to ask, because, that would be too cool...
