Author's Note: I came up with the idea for this on my way back from Taiwan. Kept thinking about family and relationships, and this part just kind of wrote itself. Currently set to be three short chapters, but that could change. Set shortly before the events in Norway, during Doomsday (season 2). Unbeta'ed, so all mistakes are mine.

So I've been thinking about writing an actual Doctor Who fic, and not just random drabbles. Which would be an interesting endeavor--despite having devoured each and every episode of the new Who series, I don't know if I could do the characters justice in my portrayal. Especially after reading some of the other authors out there in this fandom. But forge ahead I shall... one can't ever improve without trying, eh?

My original thought was to write about the Doctor and Rose on an adventure and meeting up with Elizabeth Bathory. An uncommon enough subject, I thought, and one that no one else would think of! And in fact, the only reason I know of the name is from watching Ghost Hunters International on the SciFi channel (I love me some paranormal stuff). Imagine my shock and disbelief when I saw someone post a story to time_and_chips with a summary about the Doctor and Rose going to 17th century Hungary and meeting the Bloody Countess. Well, pooh.

I have the beginnings of an idea for another story in my head now. I can tell you right now that I'll be mightily displeased and may descend into paranoia if someone posts a story with the same basic plot next week...

In other news, I'm working on tonight's drabble. Slight smut (oh my!), of which I have not attempted to write before. Would have had it written and posted yesterday, but my cousin's aunt invited me over to dinner... and I never say no to free food. ^_~

Summary: I really liked Donna.  I didn't think I would, but she grew on me.  It made me sad to think of her not happy.  This drabble grew out of that, and from listening to Switchfoot's This is Your Life many, many, many times.

Welp, I did it.  I signed up for NaNoWriMo.  So in order to prepare for the upcoming month of neverending writing, I decided to start writing little drabbles* every day.  And I will make every effort to keep this up.  Really.
