(Cross-posted from my blog, so if it sounds familiar, that's probably why.)
I missed the Ficlets days, not having discovered it until news came about that it was being shut down with no hope of exchanging hands. Bad move, AOL, but that's another grumble for another day. By then, it was too late for me to join in on the fun, so when I heard that a replacement service was starting up, I jumped right on that bandwagon.
Just the other day, an e-mail graced my inbox, proclaiming the opening of Ficly. I quickly jumped in and made myself an account, even though I had no idea what I was going to write. But I've been writing a lot lately (mostly Cookleta fic), actually, and when I haven't been, I've had ideas. It's kind of amazing, to put it lightly. So after I sign up, I head downstairs for a dried-mango run (blame David Archuleta and his obsession with mangoes) and the first line pops into my head. And then the second. And once I'm back upstairs, I'm typing as quickly as I've ever typed with one hand to try to capture my thoughts before they leak out of my head like water in a wicker basket. At the end of all that, I have something a bit short of 200 words that, if it weren't for the character limit, I could expand, and that I am super proud of:
Hollywood's Full of Girls Like You - PG (Gay/lesbian romance, angst)
I've since written two others, as well, and I hope to keep productivity up!

I think doing the formatting just gave me Carpal Tunnel. Owfrick. Feel free to point out anything that doesn't work, typos, and yes, I know there's at least one place where I left a section off in midsentence, but that was something I am aware of.
