So, this year I've decided to challenge myself. And by "challenge myself" I mean, "I don't feel like choosing between the three plots I have, so I'm just going to try to write them all!" Plus, SK jokingly suggested I do that, and then told me I couldn't do it, and we all know how stubborn I am. And, really, all I have to do to write 150K in November is write 6K a day! I can do that! Sure I can!

SO!

First plot (50K): Nolanverse fic
What if Nolan made a third movie? What if Nolan didn't hate women? Those are the questions I want to answer with this ridiculously long fic that brings redemption to Gotham. It features a cast that ranges from Batman to Harley and Ivy to Barbara Gordon.

If all goes according to plan, I should finish this one on November 9. I'll probably finish sooner because, in retrospect, no way is it going to be 50K.

Second plot (100K): F/F/F urban fantasy
Abby's a PI who does bodyguard work to pay the bills. Red's a mercenary, and Abby's best friend. Sam's an heiress who needs a bodyguard, but doesn't want one. What happens when you throw the three of them together and mix in one part death threats, one part secrets, and two parts assassins?

I'm not sure if I want this one to be more urban fantasy or more paranormal romance, because while I'm delighted with the three of them, I don't think I can squish the entire romantic plot enough to match the length of the action plot.

Regardless, this one should end up finished around the 25th. Again, probably sooner, because really? I pulled that 100K out of my ass. I have no idea how long that is.

Third plot (150K): Gadget Girl and the Dullahan Dilemma
Look, I am too fucking in love with Carrie and Ray and Stacey to just trash the characters because the zombie apocalypse didn't work out. I MEAN HONESTLY. THEY ARE SO LOVELY AND WONDERFUL AND *________*

Anyway. People are dying Final Destination-style in Carrie's city. Turns out, there's a dullahan hanging around, waiting for it to be time for a specific person to die. A specific person who's very dear to Carrie.

To be honest, this one's probably going to end up closer to 100K and the urban fantasy's going to be closer to 75K. But I'm still projecting it to be finished sometime near Christmas. Which is just in time for me to be ready to go back and start editing the fic!

THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY THIS WILL END IN TEARS.
