I just got a review on a story I wrote about a year and a half ago. I never posted it in my livejournal because I wrote it before I started using my lj on a regular basis. It's very short, very silly, and of the handful of things I've written in any fandom, I think it's my favorite. Or at least it's the only thing of mine that I thought was good without needing someone else to tell me it was good, so I decided to repost it here.

It's a PG-13ish That '70s Show fanfic, but you really don't have to be a huge fan of that show to read the fic, you just need to know who Eric and Donna are. And enjoy silliness.

Title: Moving On
Rating: PG-13
Summary: This is a short little QAF ficlet inspired by something in the recently released season 5 promo. Although I’m spoiler free, I do watch promos because I think of them more like teasers than spoilers, but if you are completely spoiler pure you might want to stay away.

Thanks to the lovely and talented vedaprophet for the beta. All remaining errors are mine.

( Moving On )

Sorry I haven't had any drabbles all week. I got involved in this surreal discussion with someone on the QAF Refugee Board who -- I swear to God -- was insisting that Jack Kinney was actually a great father, that the only reason Brian believed otherwise was because Joan had poisoned his mind, and, of course, Brian believed everything Joan said because he is such a Mama's boy. Maybe I should have just chalked it up to insanity and ignored it, but I could not just let that go.

Anyway, that discussion seems to be over now, so I had a little time and I wrote a few drabbles. I'm not sure if I'm as happy with these as I have been with the others, but this was what I came up with -- sticking to exactly 100 words can be really hard!

(sandstorm63, I am still thinking about the story idea you gave me, but I haven't actually written it yet. Hopefully I'll have some time this week.)

For some reason, finding out what a "drabble" is has sparked a little bit of a writing bug in me. I don't know, I guess I like the challenge of writing something and fitting it into exactly 100 words. Anyway, I've done one each for episodes 101 - 104.

Also, I wrote another lyric-meme drabble -- this one for zoisite84: ( Episode 308 Drabble )

I don't know if I'm going to write more of these or not... I'm not good at forcing myself to write stuff; it usually depends on whether the mood strikes me. But I do still like the idea, so I might keep going.

Since half my friends list is doing this, I figured I'd give it a shot, too.

The opening lyrics from 20 songs, chosen at random from my playlist, are listed under the cut. Pick one and write a brief little ficlet or drabble based on the lyric. And if any of my non-QAF friends want to join in, feel free to post something related to Buffy, Angel, Highlander, or even something completely original.

First, the fics I've posted in other people's journals:

1. For wide_ocean, ( I wrote a short 308 gapfiller )

2. For twistinside82, ( I wrote a much shorter 304 drabble )

3. For burnitbackwards ( I wrote a pre-series, Brian piece )

4. For shape5 ( A 220 Gapfiller )

5. ETA: For zoisite84 ( An early Season 1 Drabble )

6. ETA: For reinabelle ( Another early Season 1 Drabble )

7. ETA: For just_for_kicks ( A post-314 Drabble )
