occasionally, i have to wonder about my writing process.  i'm waiting for my betas to get back to me with Green Day, and in the meanwhile, have another story pinging my brain.  i never thought i'd be into Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but i'm currently writing a Buffy/Mag7:OW cross.  and i'm going along and it occurred to me i'm still on 'Part 1', and i'm 10 pages in.  Green Day's Part 1 is less than 5 pages long.  also, i wrote the prologue of Green Day in one shot - i've got the basic concept of the Buffy cross's prologue down, but it's been half-finished for a couple of weeks now while i concentrate on the rest of the story.

i apparently have a thing for kids, or for 'fix-it' fics, or something, as the the only character i'm really working with from Buffy is Xander, and he's been de-aged to 8, although not de-scarrified or had his experiences taken away.  and i have a thing for Chris, because i write an awful lot from his point of view.  i think this is the first time i've tried to write anything from Nathan's point of view at all.

any way, my brain is weird, my writing process is weird, and my obsessions are weird.  i just wanted to tell everyone that i wear the cheese, the cheese does not wear me.  yeah, that's it.

HUH - are you thinking abotu having Vin and JD as kids as well in this crossover idea? It sounds really intriguing.

And the story is coming - really.

no pressure on the beta, just mentioned it as an adjunct to the one i'm currently writing.

and no, Xander's a kid, but the 7 are all adults. Willow does a spell and sends Xander back to 1875ish Four Corners, where the 7 are, and the whole thing is them trying to figure out who he is and what happened to him, and Xander trying to figure out where he is and what he's going to do with his life.

the action is much slower than Green Day. but it keeps writing itself for me, so we're seeing where it goes.
