General outline of what you think you'll write: A sequel to my Beautifully Broken, so it will be a crossover with Harry Potter and now with Doctor Who and Merlin and it is also going to be Mpreg. Everyone is adjusting to the news that Ianto and Jack are expecting a child but new dangers arise when some comes after Ianto and their unborn child. Torchwood gets unexpected help in the Doctor, John Hart and the Fairies in keeping Ianto and the child safe.

General outline of what you think you'll write: I'm thinking about a sequel to my story "Contagion". Torchwood and the Tomorrow People team up on request of the Federation to help a planet suffering under terrorist attacks. Untimely interference from the Doctor throws the entire operation into disarray and the teams have to pick up the pieces of the disaster.
Big bang/mini bang: Big Bang very likely

General outline of what you think you'll write: Ianto leaves Wales and Torchwood shortly after the events in Exit Wounds and he looks to start a new normal life, but one can never escape Torchwood for too long. (I have two versions of this story bouncing around, not sure which one to finish writing.)
Big bang/mini bang: mini for now

General outline of what you think you'll write: Not sure yet. I have several stories to write and no idea which will choose to be written. I've been holding off signing up in the hope that one would decide to come forward, but none yet. Current contenders include a Taylor Swift songfic where Jack leaves Torchwood to become ambassador for Earth, a Pat Benatar songfic office AU, a Janto and Ninth Doctor OT3 alternate universe crossover, and a fic where the Eleventh Doctot stumbles upon John Hart running his own planet.
Why do I come up with fun stuff then have no time to write!??!

I don't know yet, since I have no time to write, but could I maybe later on submit more than one story, if it comes up? All of those possibilities are probably minis.

Unhappily, I've discovered that I won't have nearly as much free time these next few months as I'd expected. I'll have to pull out :(

General outline of what you think you'll write: I'm not sure yet. Maybe Ianto/Owen, since that seems to be my pairing recently. Maybe a Jack in WWI or old school Torchwood (like Emily and Alice or something). I really don't know yet.

General outline of what you think you'll write: Tosh feels less than wanted by the two men she has come to love and wonders if her feelings are all one-sided and if she is really an asset to the Torchwood team. She puts in a transfer and ends up working in London for a new team under the leadership of Danny Quinn. (The secondary sentence may be reworked, but as of right now this may be a crossover with Primeval.)
Big bang/mini bang: Mini-bang. If it takes off, I'll bump it up to big bang.

General outline of what you think you'll write: Owen/Ianto of some description. Probably set somewhere in canon but outside of the main timeline. Don't have a plot yet but I'm sure one will turn up...
Big bang/mini bang: I'm going to go for a mini bang, as it's been a while since I've written for this fandom! :)
