mhalachaiOver the weekend, I came up with a horrible/great idea for a Stargate SG-1 and Kindred the Embraced crossover. I'll probably never write it. But man.
Maybe I'm weird (maybe?), but I find that drabbling helps me get over writer's block. Or to come up with new ideas. Example, my Hermione and Graham drabble from a few days ago has now spurred a Graham and Ginny ficlette, which is again pure fluff but still something.
Why is "nimrod" slang for an inept person when the origin of the name was a great hunter from the Bible?
