Status of the writer, NaNoWriMo edition.
Oct. 17th, 2010 07:49 pmSo, yeah. I'm pretty sure I'm blaming
apiphile for this.
I may be changing my NaNoWriMo idea and it's all her fault. I say "may be" because I always reserve the right to change my mind at the last minute, because I'm a twit like that.
Anyway, somewhere between me being led during a discussion to say that the whole thing made me want to write a story where the previously-mentioned unshaven cardigan-wearing asexual heroine glares at the stereotypical heroine who asks her about shopping or something and sneers, "Yeah, I'm not helping you pass the Bechdel Test," [the entire discussion brought to the fore my basic feelings about the Bechdel Test, which is that I understand the point of it while still kinda wanting to set it on fire before using it as genuine film critique] before walking deliberately out of the scene, and the flaily glee I had over this week's SPN ... well, after all of that, I'm in the mood to write the Asexual Archivist/Librarian Who Saves The World Without Wearing Leather Pants Or Firing An Enormous Gun Or Being A Scrawny Waif With Ninja Powers.
... er, obviously the title will probably be shorter than that.
