potentiality_26From verdande_mi, thank you!
What is the longest plot idea you've had that you have not started writing? And why not?
This is a tough question simply because I only know when most of my WIPs will be very long once I have bits and pieces of them written and I realize how much is left to go. It might be fun to list those around here at some point, to keep myself accountable progress-wise.
On the subject of ideas I'm just kicking around, though, I have one for a Pride and Prejudice canon divergent AU. I was watching the 1995 version again recently, and I was getting a Vibe off Darcy and Wickham, and I started thinking about something that was still endgame Elizabeth/Darcy but he also had a more intense history with Wickham and there were ripple effects to that. I have a short teaser-style summary and enough plot beats in my head that I know it would be a big project, but that's it so far.
As to why I haven't started it yet, I just need to be in a certain headspace to get the language right, and that's hard when I'm writing modern stuff at the same time, so I'm sort of waiting to run out of steam on (or finish! It's possible to finish) some of the shorter fics I'm working on first.
Ask me questions.
