Why hasn't anyone posted on the GI FanFiction board, it's almost been a month since the last fanfic?

Hi!

Well, the fanfic I'm currently working on (the one I mentioned about someone Gilligan knew in high school showing up on the island) isn't coming along very quickly. I've had a lot going on in real life, too. And I think Julie and Courtney are still working on their fanfics.

i wrote a fanfic a while back but it REALLY stunk.

Julie the GI girl · 04-03-2003, 04:41 PM

yeah...mine's got a long way to go. i have it all planned out...it's just finding the time to sit and type it. and not only the time, but the want to. sometimes i'm just not in the mood to write, or i can't get "into" the story well enough to make anything flow from my fingers. to be perfectly honest....i don't expect to have it done before the end of the school year. it depends though. if i get a chance to sit and type, and the story flows well, then it may be done sooner. but i'm picky and i change stuff constantly. i'm STILL making changes on what i already have written. every time i re-read it, i find something else to fix up. it'll be fairly long though....so that may give you something to look forward to. lol

Um, yes, I am "working" on mine. Ahem. Kinda. I start things without planning where I'm going with them. LOL.

The "Return of Duke" thingy will probably get done sooner than "What Ever Happened to Baby Ally?" because of length and depth. I still have no plot for the latter. LOL. **shrug**

I agree with Julie - it all depends on time constraints, homework, real-life medical crap (Julie: "You can still write with a busted toe!"), and inspiration/want-to-write.

PS - I felt the need to put words in your mouth, dude. Sorry. LOL. (BTW, saw a bumper sticker that said "HAY!" today. LOL!)

Julie the GI girl · 04-03-2003, 10:36 PM

yes, thank you for that. lol. i'm reading it like "wait...i never said that!....did i?"

HAY!!!! HAY!!!! HAY!!!! LOL!!!
