ladybug_archiveI finished tinkering with chapter 6 and put it on ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
monkeesfic. When I put up the final installment, I'm going to use the WTH icon. It's bizarre.
I actually got some inspiration and have started jotting off a Bowery Boys blurb/scene between Duke and Myron. I never thought I'd be writing for them again, but it felt very comfortable, as was reading through the stuff I'd written for them five years ago. If I like it well enough when I'm done, I'll probably post it to the Bowery Yahoo Group.
I was thinking on how it felt alright to shift the time period to the present day. The Boys' films seemed to move ahead with the times. The fifties movies don't feel like forties movies, for instance. There's plot devices and ways of writing that are distinctly for each decade the films were made in. If they had continued making the films, they likely would have continued being modernized. Hence, it doesn't feel so odd to imagine the time period just being the present day instead. They likely could have had oddball adventures in the here and now while still keeping the spirit of the old films alive. I love how Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys books, and Kolchak graphic novels, take place in whatever era they were written in.
I'm hoping to start work on the Kolchak/YGO fic today. I also may take on one of the few prompts atsharp_teeth that's for any fandom, once I can decide which one it should be written for. It would easily fit YGO or Kolchak or Tutu, or probably even The Monkees, if done right.
Also today, I must start catching up on people's Tutu fics.
