The Snow Garden and Book #5

Wow, looking at my entry of when I started this book, it took me over a MONTH to read it. Except I wasn't reading it much. It sat for like three weeks because I just didn't care about any of the characters. I finally finished it on Saturday simply because I wanted to know how it ended. The whole book was terribly boring, but not so awful that I felt I could justify not finishing it. It was weird and kind of all over the place, no one had any real clear motives for anything they did and most of it just made no sense.

But now that I finished it, I can move on. Andy bought me the final book in a trilogy that I've been wanting to finish, so hopefully that will be as good as the others and I can read something I actually enjoy.

Writing

Did some more writing yesterday! This time on a fanfic. It's already longer than my other two fics combined. Which, really isn't saying much since the first one was just under 600 words and the second was just under 400 words. Yesterday I put down just over 1000 words! Some of it is just bare bones paragraphs that I have to go back and fill in better, but I put down enough to get the story moving and out of my head before I lost it.

My main problem with this fic is that it's now written in three parts. It keeps coming at me at different points in the story so I now have three different documents sitting open. And I have to figure out how to put them all together (if at all) and make it flow into one continuous story. I'm definitely going to need a beta for this one once I get it all mashed together. It wouldn't help to have one right now since everything is so disconnected and there's more to be written to hopefully bring it all together, at least story wise. Thankfully for this fandom I have an LJ group I can go to for help when I'm ready for it.

Unfortunately after next week I probably won't have much writing time as it's spring break and I have family coming to visit. :/
