Meme Thing...Because I need more reasons to procrastinate

[amberfocus]

Ask me a question about any of my characters in any of my stories and I will respond from that character's point of view (as if I am that character).  No character is off limits but questions impacting future plot may be danced around so as not to give away too much.

Additionally, if there's anything you've ever wanted to ask me about my writing process or whatever, feel free to ask here and I'll do my best to answer (although sometimes I may not even know the answer).

Thank you for the insight. Tosh was an inspired choice as Nine's companion and you write it very well.

Oh, sure, no problem. Any other questions, feel free to ask. I'm pretty much bored out of my mind and have writer's block so nothing else to do at the moment.

Okay, I think I will.

In "Wolf Moon" how did you come up with the idea of Alt!Nine being stuck with Romana's TARDIS? I really enjoyed what you did with her TARDIS' character and attitude.

I knew from the start that I was splitting the Doctor via disjunction, but I didn't want to do the same thing to the TARDIS. And I wanted a TARDIS he didn't love and didn't get along with, something he would be at odds with, so a TARDIS that wasn't his just seemed to fit that. Romana and the Doctor had such opposite personalities that I figured her TARDIS would snark at him the same way she (or her first incarnation anyway) did. Because in my version they were on the front lines of the war together and he had to do something monumental on his own, I figured it might require two ships. So he'd have to use hers as well as his own to accomplish that task, and he'd find a way to trick Romana into not coming with him, hoping he'd save her, only to condemn her to death. (This was before the whole Rassilon deal happened in canon so I was imagining some kind of mega implosion between the two ships, possibly involving trying to make both ships occupy the same moment in space time or something). The result was the splitting of the Doctor into two and one going with each ship. The ship that got alt!Nine was of course grieving for Romana and mightly ticked off at him for doing what he did in the name of keeping her safe.

The plan was to write Pink Moon (the wedding) after I finished Leap of Faith and You're What? (which is almost finished). It just a question of how long it will be because of my slow recovery time.
