Reasonably quick. I have a story idea and notes, so the situation isn't dire yet.
I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

Matt, I have no idea. But I've found that het pairings that would be really interesting tend to be written really poorly by about 90% of fandom. This is a pain I feel often. I don't recognize the female half of the pairing most of the time.
I have reviewed canon about three times, I have over 6600 words written, I'm still fighting off bears.
Thus, I am spending my days in Yulechat and doing word wars. I had fewer than 4k written yesterday morning!

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
Usually it's not a problem, as I'm more than fine with reading m/m for most characters. But I can no more enjoy slashy fic of Clark Kent than of my dad.

My first fic fandom involving Clark Kent was Smallville, so m/m including him is definitely not a problem for me.
Mmmmmmm, Lex.

I have over 300 words written for Yuletide! 30 minutes ago I had zero, so I will take a moment to celebrate while also trying to outrun the BEARS.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Man, I can't get Written Kitten to work.

Okay, I have 400 relatively polished words, another couple hundred in notes/sketches, and a vision. I am less panicked than I was.

I have 13k. I also haven't done squat today and I still need to write the rest of the third act and finalize the first two. (Actually, I think Act 2 is basically done, but I have one more scene I need to finish in Act 1 that's not gelling yet.)

Also, dude, hop into IRC. I've written almost 10k in the last week, mostly through WWs.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I just did one! Although, now I need to look up a couple things in canon. But I did not let that derail me!
