Doing some experimental writing here. The muse struck, had to do this. Check it out, pls.

I like it.

Yay!

The exersize is basically writing the events of Labyrinth as if I were writing a convention report, fuzzy memory and all. I am deliberately not re-watching the movie until after I've finished the journal, just relying on my human memory and thus getting things out of order etc.

My reasons for doing this are twofold:

1. All the Labyrinth fics I've read are set years after the events of Labyrinth - nothing in the immediate aftermath.
2. This is kind of a character-study for me, trying to figure out how Sarah's character would really develop after the events. I find it rather frustrating that so many Labyrinth fics ignore that she did not consider him to be sex-on-legs when they originally met.

That's kind of cool. Never saw a fic quite like this before; makes me wish I'd seen Labyrinth more recently.

I'm deliberately not going to re-watch the movie until I've finished recounting it - that way I'm going on my natural memory of the things that stood out in my mind. I'm cheating a little, in that I'm taking a look at the Labyrinth wiki to refresh my memory of some details, but I'm still basically going from memory.

Second post is now up.
