I have an idea for another fic. It's been done before, but I want to try it anyways. What can I say? I'm not original, but I am persistent. My idea, which started writing itself in my head last night while I was trying not to think of all the things that could go wrong with dinner today (I'm helping cook a turkey dinner with all the trimmings for over 30 soldiers...there were a lot of disasters to cover) was to do the old "What if Spike got a soul instead of Angel" plotline, complete with Spandery goodness, because I think if I tried to write Spuffy my head would implode. So, my question to the six of you that read this journal on a regular basis is:
Should I wait until I finish MoS and Ashes, thus possibly losing the thread of this story and never actually writing it OR go ahead and write it, attempting to divide my creative brain between three stories and possibly screwing them all up?

I don't normally use a beta, just because nobody I know has the time to read, con/crit and get back to me without it taking forevuh. And since nothing is ruder than having someone bug you when you offered to do them a favor, I generally just skip it. But, if you really want to and you have the time, I wouldn't mind it! :)

I completely agree with you about the rewrites; but keep in mind that the night Spike killed the Chinese slayer was the same night that Angel left the Scourge because he had the soul. Or at least I think that's the timeline; so he had only been a vampire for about 20 years at that point.
And here I am, trying to tell you how to write a fic you haven't even decided if you're gonna write yet. Just tell me to shut up, why don't you? *headdesk*
