So, I have a new ship. *headdesk* Never in my life have I shipped Obidala. I always thought, "Ewww..." but aruna7 and I were talking and one thing led to another. I was wanting to "improve" the plot of the prequels today anyway, and...well...Anakin is an idiot. My main problem with Obidala has always been the fact that I can't see a dark, broody, secretive Obi Wan who would like secretly lust after a woman, or even secretly love a woman, and certainly not try to take Anakin's wife, but someone said, "I think Obi Wan would rather leave the Jedi Order. He's too honorable." And someone wondered how that would affect things and plot ideas started, and then SOMEONE said, "Who's the father?" and bang. We have ourselves a new project. Which we both need like a hole in the head. However. Iconage.

Wow, awesome. Can't wait to see it!

[so-out-of-ideas.livejournal.com]

Heh. It'll be long. The outline alone is 6-7 pages in small font. So, I hope you don't mind fic in installments.

[janetlin.livejournal.com]

Not at all. It forces one to pace the reading, draw it out like a multi-course meal.

Plus I get a little intimidated by single posts that are just _huge_, 'cause I seldom have the time to sit down and read it all in one go, anyway.

[so-out-of-ideas.livejournal.com]

Some of my fic posts are actually pretty huge anyway, even for chapters. But I try to write for scifi_five where the max word limit is 5000. Usually I run about 1000-2000 per chapter though, unless I really get into something.

I love your icon, btw.

[janetlin.livejournal.com]

Thanks. He's just too cute.

2000 is a good size for a chapter; that's about the length mine tend to be. I don't like them _too_ short, either, because then it just feels like a teaser.

[so-out-of-ideas.livejournal.com]

You're welcome.

I don't have a set limit, but that's what I aim for. I will say I don't always post to comms immediately, so I do sometimes end up with more than one chapter in a post. I have no idea where I'd even post this particular fic anyway, since most of the comms I belong to are Stargate related.

[janetlin.livejournal.com]

There's got to be some Star Wars ones out there, though. And if you just post in your journal, maybe someone on your f-list will know where to link it.

[so-out-of-ideas.livejournal.com]

I'm sure there are, just never had a reason to join any because my main interest as far as fic writing has been Stargate SG-1. *shrugs* We'll look around when the time comes.

[janetlin.livejournal.com]

Haha, I love badass!Yoda in the prequel movies.

[so-out-of-ideas.livejournal.com]

Heh. Me too. And I love that episode.

[janetlin.livejournal.com]

Mmmm, and Danny is just yummy.

I found you through the list of icon posts in sg1_debrief and I think I'll stick around to read your fic. Mind if I friend you?

[so-out-of-ideas.livejournal.com]

Feel free. Plenty of Danny-centric fic floating around this place too. Just follow the tags.

[janetlin.livejournal.com]

Sweet. Thanks.
