5 Ingredient Fics
So remember when I asked for ingredient lists?
I actually wrote them all. Seriously, all of them. Except![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
auburn's because hers was just a beautiful transliteration of epic fic to recipe, one too perfect for a tiny little fic, so I'm going to reproduce it here for you all to appreciate.
2 cups of world building
1 cup of character development
1/2 cup of creamed romance
1/4 cup angst
1 plot* (1 mcguffin may be substituted)
Sift dry ingredients for inconsistencies and then mix together in a large format with plot, blend, then add romance and angst (to taste). Write vigorously then allow to rise until first draft is finished, then have beta punch it down. Shape story into desired form and allow to rise again before posting.
* Some plots may be larger than others and require additional world building to achieve proper consistency.
Serve with fan art and fan mix as side dishes.
Also, I handed out a few ingredient lists, andwolfshark wrote What Rodney Would Do for a crazy list including raspberries, cake, piercings, taffeta, sunglasses.
( Stuff I wrote (SGA, Star Trek, LOTRIPS, VG) )
auburn, I may write your fic someday, but since Impromptu has taken me three years so far, I think you're going to be waiting a while.
If anyone else wants to get in on the fun, go ahead and leave me an ingredient list or ask for one of your own!
P.S. I started writing up this entry less than a week after I posted the Five Ingredient Fic requests.spillingvelvet's just took this long to write. I like it, and I'm doggedly finishing my WIPs this year, so this is the first one off my plate. I'll post the other fics to the AO3 tomorrow (gblvr and beachlass's are already there). <3
