writethisfanficI have just been doing an enormous mountain of washing-up (about five days' worth; a the hazard of bachelor living!) and vaguely thinking about possibly typing something... How is progress feeling for other people?
Question of the day: what do you do next when you have just finished a fic?

Mod Post: Off-Topic Tuesday
Jan. 6th, 2026 09:12 amicon_uk posting in scans_dailyIn the comments to these weekly posts (and only these posts), it's your chance to go as off topic as you like.
Talk about non-comics stuff, thread derail, and just generally chat among yourselves.
The intent of these posts is to chat and have some fun and, sure, vent a little as required. Reasoned debate is fine, as always, but if you have to ask if something is going over the line, think carefully before posting please.
Normal board rules about conduct and behaviour still apply, of course.
It's been suggested that, if discussing spoilers for recent media events, it might be advisable to consider using the rot13 method to prevent other members seeing spoilers in passing.
The world situation is the world situation. If you're following the news, you know it as much as I do, if you're not, then there are better sources than scans_daily. But please, no doomscrolling, for your own sake.
Though... I mean... c'mon 2026, could you have not given us just a couple of weeks of relative calm? Was that SO much to ask? But... well... here we are.
The "Stranger Things" finale aired, with mixed, though generally positive reviews, though it did confirm the complete lack of the most hotly fanticipated slash pairings in recent media. Honestly, I never saw it myself, and I prefer the ending both characters got, but I appreciate that many were hoping for it.
Yoroi Shin Den Samurai Troopers released it's OP, and the first episode aired in Japan today. Heavy on the neon, but a couple of nice nods to the original series openings.

CHECK IN: DAY 5
Jan. 5th, 2026 11:54 pmigenlode posting in writethisfanficIt's a very cold Monday (not a good day for my boiler to go on the blink, but I think I've successfully reset it...)
Did your writing process freeze over in the course of the day, or is it flowing freely?
Question of the day: how do you handle a plot-hole if you notice one?

Metamorpho has been one of DC’s second-tier stars since 1965, and unlike a lot of characters without long-running series of their own, he’s retained his supporting cast.
( Captain Atom’s kids are reading this in a bar somewhere, glaring in resentment. )
