I have 2 word documents with a short story I wrote and eventually turned into a rough outline for a DW story, but I can’t attach the files so I can’t get y’all’s feedback on them which is annoying

Docx is very easy to convert to PDF inside Word!

Turn Back the Clock.pdf (183.0 KB)
Right, I think this has worked. The first file is the short story and the second one is the rough plot outline it became, do let me know what you think

Just read these, and they’re really good[1]!
The Asylum was written beautifully, and Turn Back the Clock is such an intriguing story idea, I’d love to read a full version of it!
I’m not just saying this, I mean it ↩︎

My main trope is thst i hate writing ensemble casts so i try to have as few characters as possible
Also, i believe The Asylum is written in second person forced perspective

I’m getting further into a SJA fic and oh boy I have a feeling this is going to be a long one… (By my standards, at least.)

I’ve rediscovered that for some reason I write amazingly on trains. Also at 2 am which will definitely not haunt me tomorrow but I knew that already

Don’t we all write best at 2am?

I’ve spent so much time doing work as a non-fiction writer or writing narrative non-fiction that I’ve always been super nervous to try and actually write a fanfic, but I think I might finally try it out. There was an artist on over on tumblr who did some comics for a super fun au they made, and I ended up writing a very short fic for them. And I’ve kind of wanted to expand it since then, but have felt very overwhelmed by it.

My favorite (fanfic) things to write are…largely exploring how not-ok Romana is throughout Gallifrey and the occasional what-if about that. As in, I must have at least a dozen short fics just on that topic. But I also have a few longer form ones, one of which is a rewrite of the show but if Romana was on her own living the Doctor’s life, and I REALLY should find a way to regularly add chapters to things I’ve already started instead of starting more new stories >_<
The one I’m most proud of though was that time I looked at that one girl who got possessed by daleks in Remembrance of the Daleks and did a character study about how hard her recovery from that was.

I’ve had several ideas floating around in my head, though I usually gravitate to writing about my two favourite original characters Marco and Myron. They both work on the Braxiatel Collection, and were created back when I was consistently going through my big classic Bernice Summerfield series marathon. Stopped the marathon at around Series 8 and haven’t picked it back up yet, but I will at some point.
Marco’s a cloned humanoid from an artificial planet, and Myron is from a near-extinct species who Braxiatel took under his wing aboard the Collection. As per usual with Braxiatel though, his intentions are far from empathetic.
I’ll be happy to share some of this stuff here once I’m confident enough in its completion, should anyone be interested!

I love getting bursts of inspiration from random or unlikely places that have me exploring new plotlines I may have never considered before.
