( ‘Filmography’ for movies and other spoilery details mentioned in the story )This story contains a *boatload* of firsts for me. 1st Big Bang fic. 1st story to break 13k - let
alone 20k. 1st
Torchwood story (and given my current antipathy towards S4 - unfortunately my *last* too). You get the picture?
I'd like to thank the mods of
tw_bigbang for giving me this oppurtunity to prove to myself that yes, I
becky_monster can push myself to write 15,000 words on one story. The shock may wear off before 2015 but then again...;)
I'd also like to thank (again!)
torn_eledhwen for selflessly volunteering to beta this behemoth. To
wethepainted for getting into my head and drawing the pictures and the people I saw there.
I'd also like to thank
Christopher Nolan for getting me past (and utterly
derailing me at) the 15,000 words point.
Also, I'd like to thank the very nice soul who put on the
In The Shadow Of The Sun talk and showing of the film
Sunshine at the British Film Institute. Great minds think alike!
For what it's worth, I've seen comments about how fandom tends to write one thing and 'want' another thing. Well, all I can say is - if you want it
WRITE IT. I did. And hopefully you've enjoyed it. There is room for all in fandom.
And now if you'll excuse me - I have to collapse in a big heap and go 'molest' (fic wise!) a physicist or two!
