Meme from [livejournal.com profile] cageyklio:
If you happen to be working on some creative writing project, fanfiction or NaNoWriMo or what have you, post exactly one sentence from each of your current work(s) in progress in your journal. It should probably be your favourite or most intriguing sentence so far, but what you choose is entirely your discretion. Mention the title (and genre) if you like, but don't mention anything else.

Yarp. 'S prolly gonna take a while, tho.

I can do the dialogue and the characters, and I have a premise, but it's surprisingly difficult to come up with a skeleton of events to hang it all on that feels worthy of the source material.

But the dialogue and characters are the most important part! Most of the episodes didn't have any actual plot, really, just little scoops of their lives together and their reactions to events we all deal with.

To quote Ann: YOU CAN DOOO IIIIT!!!

And I'm not just saying this so I can read more of your stories. Nope. Not. At. All.
