Well, shit
I hate it when this happens, but I have come to the conclusion that I have to chuck the current Fusion story. It's not working at all. I have some different ideas, which will require fast-forwarding the timeline a bit. It's not all bad, but it makes me wish I had given up before having 10,000 words' worth of a fic attempt. Feh.
It's not the first time and certainly not the last that I'll end up chucking thousands of words' worth of fic. I estimate I have at least 75K of words that will never see the light of day. It is what it is.
In other news, there is a pretty big snowstorm outside, the first of the year for us. I'm hoping for a quiet night during which I might be able to get some writing done. I have a high seas AU to write before December 18th, after all.

This sort of thing only happens when a writer really cares about the integrity of their work - at the same time, you really care, so it's hard to dump something!
You'll find something that flows beautifully. I have faith. ^_^
