frith_in_thorns | Sunday Six

I should really rename these to Sunday Snippet but so far I've been too lazy to edit my tag. (It's so great to see all the Guardian snippets every week, and I'm still hoping this spreads out beyond Guardian fandom to other people on my flist -- I want to see what y'all are working on too!!)

I'm now onto Part 3 of the epic angst thing! It's called Above all shadows and currently stands at 5000w, 3600 of which I wrote yesterday. Goodness knows how long it's going to be when it's finished, I have a LOT of stuff to get in there.

"No," Shen Wei said, because nothing was wrong, except for him.
