Sep. 14th, 2006 09:34 amI just had a simultanious yay and oh crud moment.
On the one hand, yay, because I've got a prompt for a DW ficathon that I've been stumped over, and I just had a story idea and the first scene pop into my head and I'm really enthusiastic about it.
On the other hand, oh crud. Because this story's going to be really pushing at the limits of what I can do as a writer, in terms of the plot and the structure. If it works, it'll be fantastic. If it doesn't work, it'll flop miserably.
Right, I might just end up going and grabbing that book on plot from the library. And doing some prewriting, figure out exactly what's going on and what the heck Mickey is doing there at that age in that time period.
And of course the actual story idea hit me ten minutes before I had to leave for class, so I was frantically typing the first scene before I ran out the door.
At least the story isn't due for a while, so I still have time to freak out and then write it.
