The Threeguesses/Lowriseflare was AWESOME!
I was minorly weirded out by it. But the writing was good.

You girls are killing me!! I wanted so badly to answer you while I was at work today and tell you that I'm working on Ch 14 :) I'm hoping to get it ready for editing/rewrites by the end of tonight/Saturday night. So, if everything works out perfectly, you'll have it soon.
:YAY: :hug:
Well thank god for that...

Margie, you are single handedly responsible for my dragging my ass this morning (lack of sleep due to late night reading) and for my current state of overload of coffee!

How many chapters are you thinking this story will be?

And by the way, I was about to throw my iPhone against the wall when Sam new partner chick kissed me. I can't afford a new phone.. please refrain from such content in the future. Regards... Me
Bahaha. I did get some very interesting reactions from that.

I have an idea for chapters, but don't want to commit to anything. I thought the first part of the story, before Andy gets sent away, would be like...2 chapters *L* Clearly, Im a bad estimator. I'd say 18 19 at the minimum, but even that is a conservative number.
Do you know how it is going to end? I mean, when you set out to write a story like that, do you have it all planned out? I would love to pick your brain about how a chapter story is developed.

Actually this story started with one specific scene in my head, and sort of snowballed into an entire (but basic) plot over the course of a day or two. The major plot points are pretty set in stone for me, but not every single minor detail is worked out ahead of time, and I had written a large portion of this story before I wrote the first chapter. Unfortunately, the story has evolved and wandered so much from the initial plan that all those scenes do need to be reworked at least a little before I publish. But things never go exactly according to plan, right? ;)

If you want to listen to me babble on endlessly (or feel like babbling yourself), go ahead and shoot me an email or a PM. I love talking to other writers about their style and/or methods.

Ok that makes sense, and don't say "unfortunately" because I don't know what you had planned originally, but what you're putting to paper is exceptional.

So at this point are you reworking chapters you've already written or completely going from scratch?

When I have some more time I'll send you an email. I'm really curious about the process.

@photogfan - right now it's a combo. I don't have any future chapter written in entirety except 15, and that is going to need a major overhaul, because, for instance, (and I'm putting these in tags, just for the hell of it)

Spoiler: click to toggle


Mostly what I have is very specific scenes that I knew I wanted to use, and whether they were a paragraph or a page (or *cough* five), I knew where in the story I wanted to stick them. So right now, I'm putting those together with the other details so everything follows the main plotline.

I'm reasonably sure that this it not how SANE people work through a story, but it works for me, and keeps things interesting. :D

Yeah so glad to hear that I have an LAWoman fanfic to read and its M rated.. I'm all for that. I'm reading an oldy now (Witness), which is insanely well written, but heart crushingly sad so I'll be up for something happy very soon.
Maybe by calling "The Witness" an "oldy" you'll encourage margie311 to update, evelinav! :wink:
Yeah, no pressure Margie, we're all just waiting!!! Lol. I finished The Witness last night and I'm pretty sure I'm wrecked for the rest of the day. It's just exceptionally well written.
I finished it TODAY.. AT WORK, when I should have been, I don't know.. working! lol
You girls are killing me!! I wanted so badly to answer you while I was at work today and tell you that I'm working on Ch 14 :) I'm hoping to get it ready for editing/rewrites by the end of tonight/Saturday night. So, if everything works out perfectly, you'll have it soon.
No pressure, margie. :flower:

BTW - The new threeguesses/lowriseflare is just awesome !!!

No it makes sense that you would write scenes first that you wanted to include and then write around those scenes. I think its awesome that that you started out wanting something for certain characters but then ended up organically morphing them into something else. That would be super annoying though having to rework pages and pages of writing.

With all the plot lines you've got going I can't imagine how much work it all is. Is it still fun writing for these characters? Now that you've been doing it for so long?

That's sort of a loaded question. I enjoy writing this version of them, but I do have to admit that seeing the turn the characters took this season was a bit of a setback for me, mentally. It's hard to write about these two people who refuse to let go of the idea of being together when the same couple is splitting up right in front of you on your television screen.

I know I wasn't the only one who had this issue this season, but it's frustrating all the same.

Yeah sorry if that question was too much. Just keep doing what you're doing, you're keeping fans like me invested in their love story :)

I'll warn you-- it's addicting, and when you get to the end you will be extremely frustrated and want to know what happens next! So, don't begin unless you are prepared to wait to know what the ending will be. I know some readers on here don't like to start stories until they are finished, so I just thought I would give you a heads up! (However, if you can't wait like me, it will give you many hours of enjoyable reading, followed by acute torture. . . :D )

I totally didn't expect to like this Sam and Andy high school story especially since I tend to stay away from alternative universe stories... But gotta say... I thoroughly enjoy this one.

I thought that TG/LRF one was really good, as always, I just had trouble picturing it (and not being a little iffy about the fact that Andy was 14 years old hahaha). Either way... that shows a lot of talent, to be able to write that much and that well in an AU 15 years ago situation and have it be really good and believable.

Second part of Sairs J's latest http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8609670/2/Shadows-from-the-past is up. It's set after 2.7 & she describes it as darker than her previous stories.

Her "To Protect Innocence" from 2011 remains one of my all-time favourites: I'm a sucker for the much-loved antique teddy bear that's part of that story...

anyone read "Must Love Dogs"? It was posted earlier today. The chapters are a little on the short side, but I'm kind of interested to see where it goes. I do have to admit I really like the idea that Sam got Boo and they are going to be a K-9 unit.
