First Line

Norrington's Revenge
Jul. 23rd, 2006 07:24 amI did sit down and start writing my Norrington fic yesterday. The voices and images would not stop playing in my head, and I know from long experience that at that point the only thing to be done is to write it out.
What's behind the cut is mostly an intro: testing the characters in this situation, exploring their emotions, checking to find out if there really is something here of substance to write. It actually didn't take that long to get to a stopping point, and this may be enough: enough to tap into Norrington's rage and his perspective on things without actually going into what he has planned.
To be honest, I'm not yet sure if it's Norrington or me who stopped here. The voices in my head have quieted, so this may be enough. If not, the pages are saved in my computer, so I can always come back.
( General unpleasantness behind the cut, but nothing graphic. No real spoilers for POTC:2. This is one of the few pices of fiction I have not put under friends-lock or an even tighter filter, but it's not personal enough to make me feel like protecting myself like that. )
