Standing On Boxes

Almost time for NaNoWriMo

The goal? 50K words in 30 days… approximately the size of a pulp novel from the 50′s.

I tried it last year… didn’t even make it half way… I did end up with the start of a story
(“The Apprentice”) but I haven’t finished that yet…

I don’t think I’ll try it this year… I’m lucky to write 500 words in a day… and not consecutively… 50K is probably 1/2 years output for me…

Is it time for a BtVS/Partridge Family crossover? I think I’ve only ever seen 1 (A quick, ‘Buffy’s real father’ fic)…

I’m thinking your standard time travel crossover… SOMETHING happens and Buffy and Oz end up on the Partridge Family bus.

But when?

In the PF timeline? – Some time after the 1st season? (There were 96 episodes… wow, look at the guest stars… many I recognize, including Mark Hamill, Rob Reiner, Slim Pickens, a couple of Charlie’s Angels)

In the Buffyverse timeline? – I prefer post-Chosen fics but how do we bring Oz into it?

And will there be any cross-fandom pairings? Buffy/Keith? Oz/Laurie Partridge? or something else… Buffy/?

And what if… one of the Partridges were a potential slayer (3 choices – Shirley, Laurie, or Tracy) or maybe Reuben is a “washout” from the Watcher training program… or maybe both??

I even have a title for it — “With the Band”
