AUGH.

So, I'm having trouble with classifications here.

I have a very bad tendency to write things that don't fit comfortably into a genre. The Werewolf Fic? Normally something with werewolves is a horror story, but there's nothing scary about this one. It's funny. So, is it horror? Or fantasy? Urban fantasy, even though it doesn't take place in a city, but does take place in "modern" times? It's not really even all that "dark," so those markets are probably out too? This doesn't matter when I'm writing it, but it sure does when I'm picking markets...

The CatFeet story? I have no idea what that is. It's sort of horror, I guess, especially the ending. Of course the problem with that is that most horror markets want 5000 words or less, and it's 6000 words.

Abducted!Werewolf? Er. I have a werewolf, and I have aliens. What's that? Is it SF, or fantasy? Or horror? Because, ew, body count.

And again I say: AUGH.

And I still need to figure out what I'm writing next. Cuz, I got nothin'. Of course, I can still do some editing work on the BearFic, and I suppose I could poke the A&tS story a little more...

YAY x2

I just read that Pushing Daisies got picked up for the whole season. *dances*

And, after watching four episodes and not paying any attention at all to who was playing whom, I looked at Aunt Vivian and said "Hey! That's Ellen Greene!" Who, for those not in the know, played Audrey the Girl in Little Shop of Horrors. I think it was her voice that really did it for me.

I love it when my fandoms collide.

NOT ONLY THAT, but the girl who played the girl in the windmill played Charlie the waitress in Heroes. And Swoosie Kurtz was in an episode as well.

In other news, I think I've figured out what I'm going to write next. I just need to figure out what an insane alien acts like...
