My Recent Fanfic Writing
So for anyone wondering what's going on with my fanfic writing, I thought I'd talk a bit about my progress. Writing is operational again, which means I've been actively writing and editing both the next chapter of Heart of Shadow and the next chapter of Cut Strings. Right now it looks like the Heart of Shadow chapter might finish up before the Cut Strings chapter, but honestly I can't say for sure. I really expected it to be the other way around, because I had a ton of trouble deciding what I wanted to do with the scene between Sidious and Talzin, but beyond some minor editing to add more description and indulge my perfectionistic streak, I've mostly finished not only that scene, but also a Plagueis scene I plan to include in the next chapter. The Plagueis scene took me a while to think up the core ideas for, but once I got those, that part was quite simple for me to write.
The Cut Strings chapter was pretty straightforward once I started writing it, though it has a lot of POV switches. It needs some more scenes, though, and there's some stuff I suspect will undergo significant editing. I've already done some editing for the chapter, though.

Cut Strings is basically my "what if The Clone Wars was centered on General Grievous?" story, though I consider it also very much an ensemble story. San Hill and Sidious are both in it quite a lot as well, and both have POV scenes, which I always find fun to write. Grievous is also very much not a fan of the Jedi, though as my tags for it say, Sidious is the main antagonist of the story. Though that's only looking at it from an individual character perspective, because I have and plan to continue employing a critical perspective of both the Republic and the Jedi Order.
