So, I found an old ficlet that I wrote back in prehistory (in the Lord of the Rings fandom), and I think I'll polish it up and post it soon. No reason not to, right?
I've also been addicting to Dragon Age: Origins for the past few days, so a little ficlet in that fandom is in progress and possibly coming out soon.
Bad news: the direction I'd planned to take with "Conflict" didn't exactly work out, so I've had to scrap what I've done with the next chapter so far and do something different. Ah, the woes of chapter-based publishing!

An letters
The next part of "conflict" is up. It's not as good as I wanted it to be, and reading through it here, I can see one error at least, but I've had this written for a week and been mostly timeless to go over it more than a few times.
Maybe once I finish up my pre-break essays, I'll have the time to work more on this.

Progress update
A while back, I finished the rough draft of the next part of "Conflict of Interests." Although, it's still a bit rough and there are some obvious spots that still need some major touch-ups.
I'm not sure when it'll be up--I've been mainly working on some other stuff recently. The same stuff I mentioned in the last post. It'll all be up eventually, I hope, except one or two things that I know just won't belong on the site.

Editor?
I now have a volunteer editor (JyrFalcon345) who may be working with me on a few things.
In other news, I've made fairly good progress in the last few weeks on the fics I'm currently working on. My progress has been mostly scattered though, and what finished products I have are either in draft stage or in need of a lot more completion before posting. I have one fic that I plan on completely finishing before I post the first chapter, if that means anything.

"A Conflict of Interests"
The first chapter of the continuation of "Necessity" is up on FFN, and I've changed the name of the story to "A Conflict of Interests" with "Necessity" as its first chapter. It's only a portion of what I've been working on, but ehh, I suppose it's still pretty hefty at 2700 words.
Also, I axed the poll. I'm going to let the story just write itself. No intervention from Jaslazul.

Small update
My total for last night reached 4,649 words, making it the second-highest number I've ever done in a day (the other was on that 13,000-word original short story that I did a while back). So, in the past two days, that means I've written over 8,000 words. Maybe the whole NaNoWriMo thing is feasible after all.
Anyway... the 8000 of the past two days has been split between two fanfics. The first is the "Necessity" continuation (answer the poll on my profail, please), and the second is another fic that has a funny story to it.
I started the most recent one with only two paragraphs in my mind, one of which was one sentence. I started the fic, having no idea where it was going, and 4200 words later, I've been quite pleasantly surprised. The story has, for the most part, taken off and left me and written itself, which is normally a good thing but weird this time because of where I ended up. I'd estimate that I'm about... three quarters of the way done with it, and I anticipate a large chunk of it being cut out during the editing process.
"Necessity" has a chapter done that I could post, but I don't want to start updating and not have anywhere to go. I want to have a few chapters finished before I start posting. I also need a new name for it, and I have no idea what that's going to be.
Au revior!

"Necessity" and...something else.
Well, I'm 4000 words into the new "Necessity" chapter... although I've reached a crossroads. Pleaaaaase respond to the poll on my profile.
Also, I've been working on another fanfic that... I'm not really sure what to do with. It's ending up way different than anything I've done before, to say the least.
