Not sure where this article should go, Sharon, but if it's in the wrong spot, could you or Steph move it?

Came across this yesterday and thought it was a lovely tribute to our favorite "bug guy" Dr. Jack Hodgins:

I guess it is in the right spot. That's Steph's thing so if she thinks it should be moved she'll do it. :)

Yes, it is a nice article, written by Catherine who I've chatted with on Twitter a few times. :) She writes a lot of fan fiction (which as you know I don't read).

Thanks, Sharon!

I don't know Catherine (but then I don't browse BuddyTV or many of those sites very often. This one just caught my eye because it was about Hodgins).

Ah, fanfiction... knowing that you don't read it, I especially appreciate you took the time to read mine. Back when I had time and drive to write it myself. *sigh* Whether it's fanfiction or 'original' fiction, I do miss writing. I'd like to renew that energy and re-find my "muse," but I'm sad to say I feel like ever since I got done with school I haven't been able to recharge the creative brain cells. Maybe it was just too many years of intense homework and focus, so right now my brain doesn't want anything that feels like homework? I'm not sure.

I suppose the thing to do is simply to take some time and ease back in. Perhaps if I take more time to read some novels and books from my "to read" pile, I'll find myself inspired to do some writing myself. :D

I read that article online as well. It was a very good description of Hodgins' character. I enjoyed reading it. :) Sherry, I'm not a fan fiction either but I would be more inclined to read it if was yours. :D

Thanks, Kathy! That's very kind of you to say. :D

I've only written 3 Bones-related stories, and in a potentially funny way, they were all "gifts" of a sort.

I wrote one very short piece as an amusement for an online friend who mentioned wondering what it would be like if Jack Hodgins (forensic scientist on Bones) ever met Abby Sciuto (forensic scientist on NCIS). So I made up a quick and playful piece as a surprise for her birthday.

The second piece I wrote was for another friend's birthday, someone who enjoyed the Jack-Abby story and asked me if I'd write something for her. She wanted something involving Jack and Angela, so I wrote a longer piece for her. It's a piece I'm quite fond of -- I was aiming for the early seasons emerging flirtation of Jack and Angela, back before they started dating, but with a tiny bit of an edge.

And the final piece was kind of a writing challenge -- I wanted some David Tennant / Doctor Who userpics (because he's cute and I liked him on that show, LOL), so I told a friend who liked to create userpics that if she made me some of David Tennant, I would write her a story. She requested something involving the friendship between Booth and Angela.

That last one was actually one of the most challenging things I've written to date, mainly because I ended up writing it in the first person and it was tough to capture Booth's character voice (you know, because I'm not a guy, and have never been in the military). Also because I had a specific blueprint in mind for the story, and it didn't end up working out exactly as I planned. I got stuck at a point in writing shortly before the "pivotal moment" in the story was supposed to occur, where I felt completely blocked. I had no idea why, but it was frustrating at the time because I just wanted to get past the part where I got stuck so that I could move on to the Big Planned Moment of the plot. But after months of struggling with it and trying to force it, I finally realized that the Big Planned Moment wasn't supposed to happen the way I'd planned. It was such a huge thing for me to realize, that the Big Planned Moment was actually going to happen in a much more subtle and creep-up-on-you sort of way. The way it ended up was much better than what I had initially outlined. I found myself amazed that once I was able to let go of my Big Plan, I was able to be open-minded to the other possibilities and then it was like all the pieces finally fell into place. Funny how things like that happen! So unexpected.

Anyway, enough of my yammering. ;)

If you're at all interested to read any of those pieces, I'd be happy to post links for you. I've got all 3 of them on my LiveJournal.

(Or send them to Kathy privately, if that's more appropriate, Sharon?)

Go ahead and send me the links privately. I'm sure I'll enjoy them. I've been watching Dr Who recently and I like David Tennant too! I'm currently watching Season 4 so I have quite a few episodes to go. :)

That would also be something you'd have to ask Steph. :icon-razz:

Of course I thought of asking Steph too. :D I just figured I see you online more often, so I'd be more likely to get an answer sooner from you.

Kathy, I'll send those links to you in a private message. Thanks for being interested! I worked really hard on them - they're meant as a bit of a love letter to the show.

Yes I'm online more but I don't really mess with the moderation stuff, that is all Steph! She is the one that keeps things neat and moves threads around and if she feels something isn't appropriate she's the one to say so. I might discuss something with her but I don't do anything as far as approving anything and never would move around things around! The boards are Steph's Queendom! LOL
