serynI need to write more. I should do at least one 30 minute thing per week. If you want to suggest a prompt, feel free, but I'm not writing for a fandom I don't know.

I cannot draw a cartoon sheep. I suspect this has more than a little to do with not having a good image of what a sheep looks like to hold in my imagination while I exaggerate its characteristics.
I wrote a child-appropriate story about sheep and it just cries out for illustrations. I both want to share and want to keep it all to myself. No one is going to love this story like I do and I'm afraid to send it out into the world like a three-legged kitten missing an ear. So I said that I would work on the illustrations and then see.

I went back and looked at my orig fic tag and realized I haven't done much more with Julian. Honestly I know where that story is going and I can't find a way to tell it. I'm not sure how much there is going to be since every vignette is showing the same thing. We're just waiting for Julian to clue in.
I find it enjoyable watching Julian see the same cues repeatedly, but either there's not going to be plot or the plot is going to be very skeevy. I sat down after writing 3 vignettes for Julian and asked myself what the overarching plot is. I had no ideas. So, bitterly, I asked myself what's the worst thing that could happen? How can I show something truly monstrous as a natural outcome of the situation as we have all seen it?

I don't want to write more fanfic. I never pimped my stuff and no one noticed me. I have some fanfic ideas, but I'm not completely sure it's stuff I'd want to share because I have some warped ideas. Like, I'm pretty sure Molly Weasley cursed Hermione before the World Cup with a dark curse for fidelity. I imagine the reason Narcissa Malfoy was wrinkling her nose is Hermione's reeking of dark magic. Various scenarios have played out in my head, none of which are tame.
I would like to see a fic where Neville and Luna are getting married and Luna gives him a tie made from the gum wrappers his mother kept giving him.
I'd like to see a time travel fic where Hermione goes from the end of fifth year at the Ministry battle to being a sixth year (good thing she was ahead of all her work) cotemporaneous with Lucius Malfoy and instead of hatred, he falls for her and is disowned so there is no incentive to join Voldemort and V has no access to the Malfoy coffers.

I had this idea for a mystery. I have the crux point in mind... that one niggling detail that the detective knows and everyone else could know because it's everyday knowledge that no one pays a lick of attention to. There was an Encyclopedia Brown story where EB talks about how the door could not swing that way because doors swing toward their hinges. As if everyone knows that. Well, everyone could know that, but 98% or more of 10 year olds do not bother with that kind of thing. Mine has to do with clock winding.
