Sometimes, I feel like "Why bother?"
But I reread all your wonderful words of support...
And I pick up the pen again.
Just wanted to say: to my lovely readers, you thank me for writing "The Oncoming Storm", but I am thankful for you for reading it. Your feedback astounds me still. They uplift me when really, I want to cry because the words aren't coming out right or fast enough.
The sequel is never far from my thoughts. Sometimes, it's intimidating to write it up against it's sibling TOS. But it'll get done. Proper, with all my love for the readers, for Janto, for this universe. I'll get it done. I promise.
In the meantime, thank you for sticking around, for recc-ing, for reading, for being you.
All My Love,
mommy

Oh hon, that is the best compliment anyone has ever paid me. But don't sell yourself short: while I might have prodded you to write, you sold a story on your own merits.
Oh? (blinking innocently) Did something happen in canon? I'm treating it like Fringe, parallel universes! :)
i have not been keeping up with the torchwood fandom but i do so adore your writing and i know how it feels when it seems the words have just abandoned you
but do not be discouraged!
it will return to you like a lover who has gone to war and heroically returning from battle you two will make massive love everywhere XD
i hope everything is well with you
and if there is just piles of rant you wish to rant, please feel free to rant away
good luck, mummy!!!
best of wishes!!!
And I totally understand what you mean about the words not coming out right. I have that trouble right now with my current fic for my Time Verse series. *SIGH* Still, perseverance is the key I guess... if we write it, they will come.
By the way, adore your icon!!!
Hey, did I ever end up sending you the link to the .pdf I did of TOS? I know I asked for permission to make it, but I forget if you ever ended up with the finished product.
Pass it over lovie, I'll stick it into ePub.
That's a sodoff great big huge file there.
And then sue wonders why I haven't made my own copy. Sweet Monkey Jesus.
And since I tried this on all three of them, you can imagine how much it takes to crash them all.
I wasn't being snappy, by the way. If you do figure out a way to make it smaller, go for it. I know it's likely possible; it's just text after all, with nothing more fancy than bold and italic.
Can hardly wait! Remind me to send you some pictures of your name sake: OnComing Storm!
She is beautiful! and I have been riding her!
You'll see the name fits!
her dam is named Frontier Storm.. so it seems fitting that she be called Oncoming storm..

me: and there's this amazing whole sequence in which all the guys and girls in Torchwood 1 call him Captain Jack Hotness
and Ianto's like :| I do not like him I do not like him I do not like him
and finds himself calling him Captain Jack Hotness and he's like DAMNIT IT'S HARKNESS
and then they make out in the elevator <3
USS.Rosa.Imo: <3 that sounds really cool
me: It's honestly one of the most amazing things ever
and that's just like... chapter one
in like 50k word
and then she rewrote the actual Torchwood, and that was just...heartbreaking and amazing and painful and oh god.
&
I hung on every word of this fic for so long
it's something like 500k words long
and I have read it about six times
^about 1/10th of the gushing.
Anyway, I guess I thought you might appreciate hearing your fic is still loved massively and that I like to gush obsessively about it to friends who don't even watch Torchwood as I was on your page anyway to see if the sequel was any closer.
I'm glad you're still working on it. <3 I will be here waiting until it comes out.
Interlude of Soph's insanity over, bye!
P.S. I might make her read it anyway.
