boring old days, drifting away

Okay, you know what?


Screw it.


What ever I have on my computer come Friday night gets posted for WotC. I will run a spell check and read over for grammar in some clarity and flow, but that's it. It's going to go up.

I've gotten sick of not being able to write anything but oneshots. I have many of those I've not posted, and one or two that I think really should be.  But, since some of them are in the kinda-maybe-sorta-one-day-could-be-a-series category, I won't.

And I want to move on in WotC. I want to write Yuugi again.

I love fanfiction so very much, and believe that there should be standards, but there's only so long I feel that I cannot post this chapter.

And with this fire (hopefully) lit under me, I'll finish the damn fic.

Can I just say that my respect for anyone's perseverance to suffer through WotM to past ch. 20 has just gone waaaaaaay up? I was rereading the story, trying to recapture the magic. Originally, I was looking up a name, seeing if she had even made it in, but got wrapped up, and went back to the start, the first chapter.

My eyes burn; seared by the missing words and bad grammar. The early dialogue. Forgotten plot pieces. The OOC actions.

I'm horrified and awed that I don't remember my writing as this bad.

It needs to rewritten. I've know this for a while. I just had no idea how badly it needed it. No clue or conceptions.

Forgive me.

To my dearest story, WotM and all characters residing with in,

You know, I have issues with you. You've been around for over three years, infesting my mind, so how could I not. You're something that I've lost hours of sleep over, and I think about you at least hourly. But:

I have plot lines lying on the way-side, forgotten and discarded.

The continuity in you sucks.

My writing style has changed drastically since you began, in my opinion.

But most of all, the plot has changed so many times it's not funny, or even vaguely amusing to me...
...
...Well now that I think about it, it is bemusing, however that's not the point.

Yugi, Malik, Ryou and all yamis.... PLEASE STOP CHANGING THE PLOT ON ME NOW! Please, I'm nearly ready to cry. Look we've gone through how many plots for this part? At the bare minimum it's eleven. This one's nice, this one is nearly written out and it's good.

Sincerely,
Ella

PS, YES, Yugi-tachi who were left behind, I hear you! Wait your damn turn or else I swear with the web as my witness that idea involving you and a certain firefly ship is going to get beyond my hard-drive and on to here!
