rynlingI’m totally stuck on the next chapter of my Zelda/Ganondorf fanfic Malice.
It’s a nsfw chapter, and fellas is it okay if I admit that I’m not particularly into the idea of Ganondorf’s dick? I don’t have anything against men as real people or as an abstract concept, but like. Can’t Ganondorf and Zelda just be really good friends? Can’t they just watch nature documentaries on Netflix and gossip while they braid each other’s hair? Does Ganondorf’s dick really have to be involved in their relationship?
I had this fantasy that I would finish rough drafts of the six remaining chapters of the story before editing and posting them, but I think I’m going to have to go back to using regularly scheduled posting dates as hard deadlines. I’m going to say that next Saturday is when I’ll post the next chapter, and then I’ll aim for posting a new chapter every two weeks until the stupid novel is finished.
The penultimate chapter is going to be another nsfw chapter, and I have no idea how to handle it. At this point I’m not above getting stupid drunk and typing every ridiculous stray thought I find amusing.
On a related topic, I get the feeling that I’ve started to use public posting as a crutch for getting things done. Which is fine, because I will take any support I can get, but I wonder how that’s going to translate into original novel writing. Would it make sense to post the first book of The Demon King on AO3, perhaps as a story that’s only visible to registered users? If nothing else, that would allow me to play with a mixed media format, alternating between the main story, illustrations, comics, Balthazar’s worldbuilding field notes, and writer’s notes (perhaps occasionally soliciting very specific feedback) in the form of endnotes.
