Fic: Vampily Ever After, Parts 3 and 4
Mar. 15th, 2006 08:09 pmThis has to be the longest case of writer's block on record. Hence, I am going to apologize all over myself and start this fic with a little story.
In November of 2004, the election was held. Not only did Bush get re-elected, but bans were passed in multiple states concerning gay marriage. I was ticked, and I decided to host a ficathon in response. Thus was born the Slash Wedding Ficathon. I wound up with a lovely Spike/Angel wedding assignment from
stakebait, which I began working on. The first section was posted on time, but as I went into writing part 2, a veritable cornocopeia of things started to go wrong, and inexcusably, it was posted late. And incomplete. I did two other back-up fics for that 'thon, and then ran into an absolute brick wall with the rest of my own assignment I had for my own ficathon.
This has, frankly, been nagging at the back of my mind ever since. I tried multiple times to get past this block, at one point trying not to write anything until I finished the fic, and it just did not work.
Then, hallelujah, came today. My muse showed up. She showed up over a year late, granted, but she showed up.
With huge apologies, massive embarassment, a desire to throw myself on the mercy of the court, and a hope that I will be condemned to writer's purgatory rather than writer's hell when I croak, I present to you the final two parts of the now COMPLETE "Vampily Ever After"
