Aeärwen's Corner

It's time again for participating in the WIP meme, where this time around I'm to post the first sentence (or two or three) from my WIPs. This year, I'm snitching this meme from heartofoshun. The thing is, at least one of these WIPs has been partially posted in here - so for that one, I'll post the first sentence of an upcoming (and thus unposted) chapter, rather than the very first bit.

As usual, most of these are novel-length pieces, with only a couple of one-shots.

So, if you ever wonder what I'm doing when I just kinda disappear writing-wise, I'm most likely working on one of the above. Either that or I'm up to my epaulettes in music. I do intend to finish all of these - I'm just not making promises as to when.

My name is Aeärwen, and I'm an Internet Addict. Hi, Aeärwen!

Evidently the BIG QWest Internet hub decided to have a melt-down yesterday, and took out 12 states' worth of internet traffic from a number of providers, including mine and Verizon, I understand. Of course, coming on the heels of having intermittent drop-offs due to old connectors and such here at the house, we (and by this, I mean all the gamers in the house) decided our provider was getting flakey again. So I called, and so a tech came out. Our personal equipment was OK, and so the only thing he could think of was that the line "drop" to the house had somehow flaked out; he'd call in a half-hour to schedule maintenance to come out and replace it.

Three hours later, I called again, only to be told the horror story of massive outages - complete with anecdote about how their phone system fell apart when they ended up with over two thousand people sitting on hold to complain about no Internet. I went to bed, not knowing if it truly was that, or if we did indeed need our "drop" replaced - and/or if I would have access in the morning.

I'm baaaaaaaaa-aaaack.... *smirks happily*

On to the fun...

Snagged from aranellaurelote, figuring it might be nice - or interesting, at least - to give my readers here hints as to what I've been spending my time writing lately.

Meme: Post a little bit of each WIP you have (or as many as you want to pick). No context, no explanations.

( Tantalizing and Misc. Snatches from my WIPs to whet your appetite, with no promises as to when any of these will see the light of posting )

All I can promise is that I am working on them all, as my Muse allows. When they are finished and have been run through whatever beta/concrit process they need, they will be posted.

So read at your own risk....
