( Mandate from the Masses )

Taken from thefannishwaldo:

Inspired by Doctor Who's "Turn Left:" Pick one of my stories and tell me a point in the tale that you'd change. Something tiny (e.g. "and then Fay chose silver glitter instead of gold") or big (e.g. "and then Rose was arrested instead of Jack") and I'll tell you how that one difference would have altered the course of the entire story.


... This one I'm curious about.

ETA: And I'll take more than one question. I'm having fun with this!

Official BBC Radio 4 site.

And I'm outside the UK, and I still managed to get it. Right click the download link and select the 'Save Link As...' option (or browser equivalent).

*looks at word count*

Yeah... I missed it. By half, at least.

However, this is what I have done this month, and frankly, it's enough to be proud of!


* A solo Baccano! fic Between Friends. It's also my first femslash and I'm rather proud of how it turned out!

* Three chapters of DKoM, and am working on the fourth (which thrills me, because the muses were DED for a while there). Also got many, many plot ideas that came out of NOWHERE. I even know how it'll end, but now the problem is to get there. It's looking to be about 30 chapters at the moment. Shocking that this came from what I originally had in mind to be an eight to ten chapter fic where I'd make Ianto a Time Lord!

* A Baby Towel Story for gingerlr's birthday. We're still not mentioning how old she turned. Nope.

* Another Footnotes chapter. This one also makes me happy because I skipped one book and wrote about four other ones that have been waiting to be posted. I am also toying with the idea of doing a Doctor Who style one with the Torchwood novels. Talk me out of it, someone.

* Three different chapters of Slipping Through. One more little interlude to go and then it's back to totally4ryo!

* Another Torchwood Fairytales story.

* Let's call it one and a half chapters of my original story. I didn't get that one done, which is what I'd hoped to do, but I started it and I'm damn proud of that fact!

So, uh, yeah. Ten fics and 1.5 chapters of original stuff. Wow.

Expect a lot of stuff to come soon! Especially fic. Especially after the new season of Torchwood next week.
