09:38 pm - Currently Friends Only: Comment to be added


For the moment this journal is friends only. This is mostly until I figure out what I'm doing and where I'm going for certain. Feel free to comment and add me. I'm sabrinanymph@LJ, Sabrina@Dreamwidth and sabrinanymph@IJ. Why am I [info]sabrina here and not [info]sabrinanymph? Not honestly certain - I probably should have just been sabrinanymph here too, but I thought I'd mix it up a little since Sabrina was actually available!

06:08 pm - NaNo update.

18771 / 50000 words. 38% done!

Well, I am caught up till Wednesday now. I really have got to stop not writing during the week, mostly not because it is so impossible to catch up on weekends, it is doable, but it means that I do nothing else for the entire weekend.

Luckily, it seems that my original problem, which was that I had no idea where to take the middle, seems to have been solved when I jumped forward to write the 'end'. I am now back into the middle section, and it is moving, I keep shaving off chunks of hundreds or thousands and I feeling a bit better about things - it is only 6:00, and I keep giving myself the 'get to this point before I go get tea' method, which is working.

I told R today over lunch that I have no desire to even contemplate how much of this is going to get shaved out in post-editing. And of course I fear the continuity is lacking, but that is something to deal with in editing mode. I do still like this story - I like what it tells and that does help.

09:18 pm - Fic: Where Angels Trod (Luke/Mara, Luke/Callista, PG,'Planet of Twilight')
Title: Where Angels Trod
Author: [info - personal] sabrina
Fandom/Spoilers: Star Wars/ Planet of Twilight
Rating: PG
Length: 2,508
Summary: This is a sequel to ‘To Mara, With Love’.
Warnings: Character Death
Author's note/Disclaimer: These characters are not mine. I am simply borrowing them from the people who created them: George Lucas, Timothy Zahn, and Barbara Hambly among others. I love this universe and thank them for giving me the freedom to play in it. This is a sequel to ‘To Mara, With Love’. It has been asked for by several readers and I have finally gotten the time and inspiration to write one. Sometimes a story is better left alone, but I too, want a sequel to this one as ‘To Mara’ is far too sad.

08:02 pm - Fic: Stark Promises, pt. 10 (Luke/Mara, PG,'Correllian Trilogy')
Title: Stark Promises; "The Truth Will You Free"; Pt. 9 here.
Fandom: Star Wars
Spoilers: None particularly.
Rating: PG.
Length: 2,747
Disclaimer: The Star Wars universe and the characters contained within are all the property of George Lucas, Lucasfilm, Ltd., and the authors who invented them. Some of them were my own invention, Stark, Kilana, Cedrik, Jerri Gigel, and Que'ouli and many other minor supporting characters. I hold no copyrights on those characters and this story was not written for profit of any kind.
Acknowledgements: Thank you to all of my beta and idea testers, Mike, Carla, Erin, -- you know who you are! You guys were great and I couldn't have done it without you. Special thanks to all the people who lurk in the 'Who Should Luke Marry?' folder in AOL, your discussions keep me on my toes. All Club Jaders, your discussions really keep me on my toes. And also for all you inmates of Detention Block C. A lot of you have read this and given me feed back, thanks.
Author's Notes: This story takes place approximately 15-16 years after Return of the Jedi. A fairly good knowledge of the SW universe up until that point would probably be helpful. This is a Luke and Mara story, but it is also a Leia story, and deals with a lot of political situations in the GFFA. In other words, it is a lot more than simply a romantic romp, although there is certainly a romantic triangle of sorts throughout it.




SIXTEEN YEARS AFTER THE BATTLE OF ENDOR, LEIA IS ACCUSED OF A CRIME SHE DIDN'T COMMIT. LUKE AND MARA RUSH ACROSS THE GALAXY IN A RACE AGAINST TIME TO CLEAR LEIA'S NAME WHERE THEY DISCOVER SINISTER FORCES AT WORK THAT IF ALLOWED TO PROCEED SPELL CERTAIN DOOM FOR THE SKYWALKER LEGACY AND STARK PROMISES FOR THE ENTIRE GALAXY. )
