I hate my plot

[wickedwords]

I got 3/4 of the way through a list of scenes, and realized I hated what I was doing; I was essentially drafting a cave story, and it had no cleverness to it. It was just...lying there like a gutted trout. So I think I am back to reexamining what I want this one to do, and what I want it to be. Anyone got some favorite story tropes that you'd like to see?

Oh, you are tricky! Yes, I have read a lot of your Leah stuff. *g*

:) Well, I wasn't trying to be tricky--honest! I just needed a new LJ so I could do archive stuff without being cyber-stalked by people whom I had told needed betas. And then I started wondering if I could write differently if I was writing as a different person (don't know if I did, but it was fun to try). I was never trying to actually deceive anyone.

Now that I'm no longer involved with the CSI archive, I'm going to 'out' myself once I finish this fic and post it, because it'll probably be my last one in the fandom. But I'm no longer trying to keep anonymous as TiS so strenuously.

And you are one of the few who knows. ;->
