quipxoticI did a bunch of driving today which, if it's good for nothing else, is at least good for thinking. So here's what I'm going to try with Hill House Eight:
"The Haunting of Hill House" TV show has a funky structure. Each of its first five episodes jumps forward and back in time to focus on events concerning one of the five siblings. I'm going to try to do the same, with the first three chapters focusing on each of my Doctor Who characters (Eight, Liv, and Helen). I'd actually considered doing this originally but decided it was too much work. Well, I've got a whole lot of nothing happening in the story right now and a lot of work can't be worse than that.
That doesn't mean that this isn't the stupidest thing I've ever done in a fic ever. But oh well...it's just fan fiction.
I'm also going to push it back in the Eighth Doctor's timeline. Instead of happening sometime after "Ravenous 2," I'm going to place it after "Doom Coalition 1." That means I'll need to rewrite all the Helen bits, but I didn't have much written for her anyway. It also means I can bring up Molly O'Sullivan and Martin Donaldson a bit more in connection to Liv since the story will be happening closer to the events of "Dark Eyes."
