Random, random

I signed up for [livejournal.com profile] gateverse_remix, because clearly I do not have enough to do, what with Big Bang and, oh, my original writing and all. XD (Signups are open until May 26, btw in case anyone else cares to join me in my madness and increase my chances of getting a gen author to remix! Not that I'd mind remixing a pairing-focused fic, but the more, the merrier. You need 5+ stories of 1000 words or more to be eligible.)

Completely unrelated to that, I have a spoilery question for anyone who has seen Ashes to Ashes. (This is probably also quite spoilery for the Life on Mars finale.)

Do they mention anything at all about Annie? I haven't seen the show yet, but I know from cast photos and so forth that she's not in it. I know what happened to Sam, more or less, but I'm wondering if Annie's absence is explained away somehow, or if she's just gone.

Damn that looks sooooo interesting but why can't it have an August due date? Sigh.

*mutters to selve about squeezing it in*

Annie

I'm only 3 episodes into Ashes (I've got all of season 1 waiting to be watched) - There is no mention of Annie.
Sam is meantioned a few times and he is seen in photos twice in the first episode. No other mentions of him or Annie in any of the other episodes... but then again, only season 1 has aired so far. I REALLY hoping Sam makes an appearance further down the track because I think it could work well.
Have you watch Ashes to Ashes yet? You know, it's good .. but its just so hard to see Gene Hunt without Sam Tyler. But if you just forget for a little bit, its not bad (at least that's what I think). I've got some theories about A2A and Sam. But I'm not going to say if you haven't watched it yet =)

Oh... I mean I have to be done with Big Bang rough draft by July 14th and...

No, no, no!

I really love the idea of the remix challenge, but man... why does it have to fall in line so close with Big Bang? Perhaps I'll continue to flounder a bit until Labor Day.

You brave (or mad) person!! But go for it!

I'm not signing up at the moment as my writing is hit and miss - sometimes I can sit down and write something - and then I hit periods where I can't seem to get anything much written (maybe the odd ficlet at most). I'm also having a problem actually finishing any longer stories!! Frustrating, but as I write for pleasure I've told myself to chill and just let it happen when it happens!!

Ashes to Ashes - no mention of Annie at all, which is a little disappointing. Just got two more eps to watch - the fact it is taking me this long to get through them tells you that I'm not overly keen. But there are these brilliant scenes here and there that just keep me watching - even though I don't really like the new girl all that much...

I think it's a case of watching it and making your own mind up - I know some people thought it was great; me, not so much.

*covers eyes to avoid spoilers* (I'm d/l'ing s1 of LoM now...!)

...welllll, I was debating, so you decided me, I'm signed up for the remix! (Especially since it doesn't look like Big Bang is going to happen for me, eheheh... *runs away quickly*)

So tempted to sign up, but I'm such a picky reader and writer, and it would be just my luck I'd end up with an NC-17 slasher who really, really likes "details" :S

But... so tempting! I really enjoy challenges. I always have plenty of ideas but never the motivation to write, and challenges give me the motivation.

I'll have to ponder this carefully.
