Writing Badfic....
Nov. 1st, 2012 04:14 pm.... is a lot harder than it sounds, as it turns out. :(
In the next day or so, I hope to post a Rymon story. It started out as a funny, silly, little badfic to explain the ridiculous biography of Simon Cowell that was published this spring. But the thoughts and ideas and WORDS kept coming, and it just became impossible for me to sustain that intentional badfic "voice" for so long. I ended up re-writing the first half to make it "better," yet the base of the story remains a big pile of dialouge-heavy angsty schmoop. I also wanted to incorporate more realism into the plot than originally planned, but the guys have distanced themselves and blurred the lines between what is real and what isn't so much these last couple of years.... well, the canon isn't what it used to be, that's for sure, limiting what I could do.
I know that it sounds like I'm trying to make excuses, but that's probably because that's exactly what I'm doing. LOL
I am, however, fairly confident that I successfully painted Tony Cowell to be the fool that he is in the story, thereby accomplishing one of my primary objectives. :)
