Wherein I may be MIA

Since Monday my internet has been spotty and slow and was actually out for a few hours yesterday.  Comcast is "aware" of the problem and is "in the process of fixing it."  However, since they also gave the helpful advice of going to their webpage for 'convient updates with their progress' I do not have high hopes for their abilities.

Today it is out again so I've gone to the local library, which has computers and allows one hour of internet usage per patron per day.  *sighs*

But at least that was long enough to look up some info I need for a story I'm not going to write.  Not enough, unfortuantely, but I'm happy because hopefully it's an idea for something longer than a ficlet, which is all my brain seems capable of these days.

I like Elizabeth, and Teyla. But I can't *hear* them if that makes sense. I've written both as minor characters, but I cant imagine trying as a lead character

Oh, yeah, I definitely know what you mean. *nods*

but who knows, I was positive I wouldn't write anything for round 5 and then out of the blue got clocked over the head with a story idea. Although since I can *hear* rodney, something similar happening is less likely this time around.

I'm also just a little tired of the forced POV. I'd really like prompt that was more up to interpretation

I'd think they'd get boring to read, too. That many stories at once with the same POV. Well, it's probably high time you used a skip anyway.

there are only 17 writers left. and there were only 12 entries last time, no idea how many will do a skip this time.

If an idea strikes I'll write, but if not, having the skip to use is nice

I really hope the next one isn't Ronon POV

Ronon would be difficult, I'd think. *nods*
