fan_elune | There's always time on my mind

The unexpected happened today. Or, really, it started last night. I lay awake for at least two hours, absolutely unable to go to sleep (but exhausted, which I really hate - body tired but mind going hyper, very frustrating). Consequently, I spent some of that time thinking on some fic projects of mine, and it served me right because today I wrote the first chapter of "Collion" - temporary title for the third part of the Crossed Destinies series.

Yes, I finally went for Collion/Colin as names for the kid. It suddenly felt right.

But besides that, I am so thankful things finally clicked in place. I adore writing Haldir, and I find that Colin himself is quite interesting. A half-Elf raised in our world, a bit of a challenge to write. Just as Haldir is. Everywhere, you see fic where characters from this plane are sent into Middle Earth and have to adapt to the life there. Doing it the other way around is quite interesting, I find. And the transplanted character being Haldir does not hurt, I'll admit.

By the way, Cinnie, would you be interested in beta'ing it? I'm intent on doing justice to our favourite Marchwarden and I don't see who better to ask. ;)

Now if I just manage to hold the Cowboy Bebop muses at bay long enough, I hope I'll write a few more chapters in the next couple of weeks - am going back to Reims without

greenie_breizh on Thursday, which shall despite the heartache enable me to get a few things done both regarding next year, and a few writing projects of mine.
