solarianaI really want to complete my stories. It helps to keep track of them, so they're not forgotten.
My WIP (not so anonymous) writer's statement:
My name is Jacie, and I have 5 WIPs.
I know. I JUST did one of these. But I'm happy I've been able to complete another WIP and get it off the (WIP) books! I'm going to enjoy being down to 5 WIPs for a day or two, but will have to get started on my SeSa soon. I'm also thinking about writing something for the Holiday Challenge. I don't know. I'm still feeling rundown. I can't motivate myself to get much done other than writing. I've been off work for six weeks and haven't done a thing to make my house better (cleaning and organizing). Plus I will be out of town for a few days.
Completed:
I have completed and posted Fragile! I wrote two chapters last year, and another three in the last 4-5 days.
Started 2017:
Post-Apocalypse bunny
3100 WC - (no change - last update 01/07/2017)
Oh, I've been kicking this one around for a few years, probably since 2014 or 2015, but never started writing it until 2017. I'm considering using this as my Big Bang, but I doubt I will get it done in time. So far I'm thinking Earth is taken over by aliens who enslave humans. Tim gets nabbed and one of the aliens takes him as a sex slave/pet. Ducky, Jimmy, Tony and Gibbs get away to Gibbs' cabin, but are trying to save Jackson, Tim, and Ziva/Bishop (ETA - using Bishop). Ha! I could probably kill off Ziva in this and not take too much heat for it. Maybe I'll use it for Big Bang 2018?
Started 2016:
*Fragile (Prequel to Broken)
11,400 WC (last update 11/14/2017) - COMPLETED!
I didn't expand much on the universe Broken was written in as Tony was kidnapped, which didn't leave much time to explore the D/s relationship between Tony and Gibbs. This was going to be a short Tony as a teenager and how he got to that s level. I wrote about 1800 WC Sept 11. Sort of a sad, painful little story. I found the first two chapters seem complete, so I'm working on ch 3. I'm hoping to keep this one short. So maybe 3-5 chapters.
ETA: 5 chapters was the magic number. It is now done and posted!
Musician Bunny
850 WC (no change - last update unknown, maybe August 2016)
I've been musing about writing musician fic for a bit. I had some great stuff come to me when I was drifting off, but only remembered one line when I got up and tried to get it down. Once I finished my BB # 2 in 2016, I tried adding a bit to this. I was thinking maybe it could be a Micro Bang story. I'm just not sure where to go with it though. Do I make it an undercover fic? Or does Tony get offered a job as a musician full time? Do I just make a short little bit of fluff at the bar? Hmmm.
Started 2014:
Plane bunny
WC 843 (no change - last update 02/22/2015)
This one has been bouncing around my head for a couple of years. Never started it, just had some general idea for it. Based kind of sort of Cast Away. When the season premiere (Sept 2014) started with Gibbs and Tim in a helicopter crash, I thought to abandon this, but it's different. They crashed in a forest, shot down and chased by bad guys. In my story, they crash in the ocean and wind up on an island.
Undercover bunny
WC 3770 (no change - last update 12/27/2014)
Naemi is so good to me that I wanted to write something for her. I started writing it during the BB writing period. I may have added a couple hundred words here and there since. It is currently at 3770. Tim/Tony undercover. Tim gets kidnapped and tortured. I haven't added to this one in a long while and I would love to get it finished so I can present it to Naemi before she loses all interest in reading NCIS. I've been thinking more about this one. I'd really like to finish it one day.
Photography bunny
WC 1180 (no change - last update 12/21/2014)
This bunny was inspired by artwork posted with Gibbs taking pictures. I started it during the summer (BB writing period...I was struggling with The Contract and started a few other projects during this time, also got several chapters of SOLD! done.) So it's undercover, Gibbs as a photographer. Maybe abandoned forever.
Not Started:
(because sometimes I have thoughts and lose them if I don't write them down! Will I ever write these? Who knows?)
Brokeback Mountain bunny not started
I recently (2014?) watched most of Brokeback Mountain. I've been yearning to write a cowboy AU for quite a while. Maybe for BB one year? I haven't put anything down or made any firm thoughts of plot or direction.
