Half-fanfic/Half-original
That is where my brain is right now.
Fanfic
Still obsessed with fic of the Supernatural variety, though I've been a little nostalgic for SG-1 lately. And Smallville. But currently, I've been spending some time working on my wing!fic series for SPN. The sad part is that I have most of the series planned out and I have fun with it. It gives me something to work on that's a bit stress free. I've just struggled with having the time. I'd say that I'm about 3/4 of the way through the current fic I'm writing in the series. If I'm lucky, I'll finish another scene tonight.
I'm about near the climax and then I'll have the wrap up scenes. As always, my philosophy on LJ is not to post it until it's finished or a couple of scenes away from completed. However, I'm not as anal about it on fanfiction.net where I've posted a few chapters to see how it would look. I don't read WIPs myself, but if anyone is interested in the wing!fic universe, you can check out the first four chapters there: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/9284489/1/The-Second-Deviation
No worries if you pass. I'll post it here for anyone interested when it's done anyway. :)
Original
As for my original stuff, I had a breakthrough this month and it's taken a new direction. The first time in a long time I feel like I know what I'm doing with it. It's a good feeling. It's hard to explain. but I think it's some kind of combo X-Files meets Warehouse 13 meets Supernatural. That's a guesstimate. Contemporary/urban fantasy is my main genre of writing. I tend to sway towards anything with a supernatural or paranormal flare. I'm interested to see where this rewrite takes me. I also need to work on some other works to send back to an editor interested in my stuff.
How goes the writing front with my writer friends?

Yay! :) I need that feeling again re: my trilogy. It's been on hiatus all year; hit a roadblock last November. Something about the plot stopped working for me, so I've been slowly going through the whole thing trying to find the 'problem area'.
In the meantime, I've been working on a book series idea. Spec fic (fantasy/scifi) again, but more modern-day. My protagonist is an OC from one of my Smallville fanfics. :D I've figured out the plots and titles for the first 5 books, as well as a few recurring characters. I am writing him into another 'fanfic', but it's mostly for my own enjoyment and working out his characterisation - especially how he interacts with other people.
I won't get started on the actual book series until my trilogy is done (& almost-ready for publishing). But having this series project in-the-works makes me especially eager to get the trilogy story complete.

But it's also great that you have all these other ideas waiting for you. That's a great sign!
