So it ended up at 60K words. Technically four times longer than the mandatory minimum for the Big Bang challence. And I finally have a real title instead of the working title I'd slapped on it so I'd have a convenient file name.
Because the artist and fanmixer claims on the Big Bang community are supposed to be blind (ie. they're not supposed to know whose is whose), I can't post the title. Which is fine, really. The fact that I changed the title from what I've been mentioning here on my LJ makes it even more anonymous, so I'm playing properly by the rules. And I can post the title after the Big Bang Claim (hee) on Sunday (OMG NERVOUS). I really want to post the title though. It works on so many levels, and I'm surprisingly proud of it. Titles aren't normally my strong suit.
...
Or that could be the squeeful delirium of being done with the rough-draft and thoroughly sleep deprived.
But anyway, now that I've finished the rough-draft of the Fic Of Doom (TM), I suddenly find myself in an awkward sort of position. I want to keep writing. I have ideas. I have more fics. I want to perfect THAT fic.
I also really want to write outtakes from the fic from Kirk's perspective. The entire fic is written 3rd-person limited from McCoy's perspective, and I think it works really well that way. However, there are a couple of scenes that I really want to write from Jim's perspective, stuff that McCoy can't see, and aren't mandatory to see for the purpose of the plot, but would be exciting and interesting. What do you think?
I guess I just really feel like WRITING right now.
