More fic musings

The first of my sequels to When the World is Burning currently stands just shy of 20,000 words. I've been rushing to finish it in the hope of getting it done for [community profile] ladiesbigbang. It's a good candidate for that challenge, being mainly focussed on Anna and some other female characters but although it's just feasible I could, I don't think I'd be doing the story justice if I hurry it. I've reached a good point to pause and let what happens next unfold more naturally.

For those waiting for a resolution to the Dean and Sam storyline in WTWIB, this isn't it. The idea is that this story Hour of Need has the same first chapter as the other sequel (as yet untitled), and the two run in parallel, so HoN follows Anna and to a lesser extent Castiel, with Dean and the others involved only peripherally, and the other will focus on all the characters in WtWiB and Dean trying to save Sam from Lucifer. Ideally, you'll be able to read the two in any order. I'm beginning to think my planned trilogy might need a fourth installment to wrap it all up...but I don't know yet.

ION they posted the second round of vacancies at work last week and lo and behold, there's one I like. ONE. But it has some very specific requirements which not many people are going to be able to fill - and I'm one of them. So unless this is one of those where they've already got a candidate lined up, I'm hopeful. Got my application in today. I have no clue when I'll hear but it'll probably be a few weeks.
