Plot Bunnies are Hard to Kill

[danalwyn]

My subconscious is not listening to me at all.

I've got one of those story ideas - you know how it is - that I've absolutely, totally, completely and utterly decided not to write on because it would be a monstrous sink of time which would absorb all the writing potential that I have, and it would only produce a:

1) Monstrous work of un-editable fanfiction

that would be

2) A crossover of such epic proportions that the chances of someone actually knowing all the fandoms would be low.

So, given that I have made the perfectly reasonable decision to never pursue this line of work, why have I spent my free time in the past week trying to figure out which fandom character should enter Middle Earth to take Gandalf's place in the Lord of the Rings?


My suspicion is that I'm an idiot.

Uh, that'll be a no, Ghost Rider. Repeat: negative.

What the hell, go for it. What fandoms are we talking about here?

I claim that inability to know when to shut up makes you an idiot as much as talking about something you don't know about.

And all possible fandoms. That would be part of the problem.
