The Making of "Staunch Fan" – Part oneIt was a dark, dark, night, under the flickering candlelights; a person slouched over her desk…
It was 10.30pm… under the flickering light bulbs, someone sat before her computer…
"I think I know what to do – oh shucks, I have six incomplete fics on hand, and I'm thinking of starting a new fic? The readers will probably kill me…"
Like anyone reads her fic anyway.
"But I just can't resist the idea of a girl who is charmingly boyish and is the childhood friend of Sendoh…ah, heck it!"
The keyboard went 'tap' 'tap' 'tap' furiously…
|
"Two hundred and four…two hundred and five…two hundred and six…"
The orange ball fell through the net again and again. The remaining rays of the sun cast a lingering sweep through the basketball court, leaving the tall figure there, cast in silhouette. |
"What should I entitle this fic? Anything, "Staunch Fan" it would be. Don't ask me what it meant, I can't remember what anyway."
