Author	Topic: The plot bunny that won't go away...
Vongchild Registered: Apr '04	Date Posted: 8/6/05 8:43pm Subject: The plot bunny that won't go away...
	I've got a few that I don't want to write but they're stuck in my head. And a few that I have written but they're mutating. Anyone else got a plot bunny that won't leave them alone? May I coin the term Plot Moles for ideas that get down deep and won't go away? -----signature----- "Oh," the other clerk said, as if it was nothing new, "You got one of the kid's drawings." http://boards.theforce.net/Beyond_the_Saga/b10477/21158399 - Mechanical Dreams Apprentice to Zonoma "I'd take a Yuuzhan Vong Warrior over Jacen Solo any day."

	I have a couple - most I which I don't think it's possible to turn into good fics, so I can't write them to make them go away. -----signature----- "Pretty. What do we blow up first?" * * * * The Wise Words of Myn Donos * * * * Fics in my profile

	Oh, I've got one. Just spewed a whole bunch of ideas on KFM. And by one, I really mean four. But it's all off one concept. One day, I will accomplish it.

	Commander-DWH:One day, I will accomplish it. Somehow. Good luck with that! Though I must warn you, it might never happen. VongChild, I know exactly what you're talking about. I get these ideas that his me, and even though I know I'll never get around to writing them, they just...sit in my mind, and never leave. What do you guys think about this idea?

	Maybe you can find a way to put these plots into your already exiting fics? -----signature----- The Force is with you young Skywalker, but you are not a Jedi yet --Vader But all warriors must fall one day-ROSE I

	Maybe you can find a way to put these plots into your already exiting fics? The very thought of doing this with my idea makes me want to curl up and laugh until my stomach can't take it anymore. Not that the idea is a bad one, but it would be so hilarious if I tried to do this. I'd have characters breaking into song at the most random moments. "So, Atton, how exactly did you get into that Force cage?" "Oh, I am a Scoundrel King! And it is, it is a glorious thing to be a Scoundrel King!" cough Erm. 'Nuff of that. -----signature----- Complements (KOTOR)- http://boards.theforce.net/before_the_saga/b10475/21177927/ Luminosity- http://boards.theforce.net/before_the_saga/b10475/27900517/ Barefoot hippie in the OC revolution Master of the lovely and talented SoA

	Plot Bunny Management a la oqidaun: I keep my plot bunnies in a high energy containment field that will zap their little bunny butts if they hop out. I have my one big opus-fic (you know the one that you hope one day Papa George calls you in on) and so that I don't get derailed from the people, places and things in the opus-fic my plot bunnies have to play inside of the broader setting that I've set up for the opus fic. It keeps everything in perspective and if you're shoveling a lot of OC material (as I do) it gives your OCs more time to get fleshed out and the people who read your stuff will have more perspectives from which to appreciate your original elements. An example of my methodological madness would be the spooky/horror story I'm doing right now. I'm using some of my OC geography, two minor characters, consistent Obi/An characterization and stressing some of the political backstory that really comes out in the bigger story and it all takes place 4 yrs before my other fic. It's a win/win situation, I get to be spooky and murder characters, but not go wild and knock the other story off its tracks. -----signature----- . . . . I'm so bad, I banned myself.

	What's wrong with spontaneously breaking into song? Only that I promised myself these particular stories wouldn't be as spooftacular as I usually tend to be. They can break into song in their proper stories, but agh! Now they're going to want to sing in the other ones, too. Demanding characters, they are. -----signature----- Complements (KOTOR)- http://boards.theforce.net/before_the_saga/b10475/21177927/ Luminosity- http://boards.theforce.net/before_the_saga/b10475/27900517/ Barefoot hippie in the OC revolution Master of the lovely and talented SoA
