A small thing I did today:
As part of tidying my apartment in preparation for Susan's visit this weekend, I typed up a bunch of my paper notes into proper electronic files. This means that A) they won't be clutter anymore, and B) I will actually be able to find their contents when I need them instead of losing them at the bottom of a several inch thick stack of paper scraps.
Some of them I don't have any context for anymore, while others are pretty straightforward background worldbuilding or story outlining. And others are scraps of actual stories.
I have a lot more random story snippets than I remember actually writing.
Here are a few that I am pretty sure aren't going anywhere anymore:
---------------
---------------
( Harry Potter - untitled Hermione and Ginny fragment )
(I have no idea where I was going with that.)
---------------
---------------
( Homestuck - untitled Rose Lalonde fragment )
(Again, I have no idea where this was going.)
---------------
---------------
( Daredevil - untitled post-Season 1 fragment )
(I think I abandoned this because it was more didactic than I wanted.)
---------------
---------------
( Daredevil - miscellaneous fragments whose context I have lost )
(I think the first was an attempt at a Black Jewels crossover/fusion thing. The second is clearly a divergence post-Season 1, but beyond that, I got nothing. *shrug*)
---------------
---------------
( Riddlemaster Trilogy - Not Compassion (Those from the Sea) )
(This was clearly an attempt to give the nameless Earthmaster woman some backstory (and also assign her a name that seems plausible, given the "Those from the sea. Edolen. Sec," line that... I think one of the dead kids under the mountain says to Morgon?) and try to make sense of the inherent tension of a society where everyone has that kind of unfettered power even if they haven't quite realized it yet. But I never really had a plot, so it stalled out here.)
---------------
---------------
( Original - untitled fairy-tale fragment )
(This is one of the seeds of Sunbright and Shadowfall, even though I think it originally started as some kind of sideways Homestuck AU? By which I mean, IIRC this was loosely drawn from a dream, in which the lonely witch was Jade Harley, but I dunno exactly; it was a long time ago and I never wrote the details down.)
---------------
---------------
And that's that for my brain-dump. Everything else is either too fragmentary to be comprehensible, or is something I actually do still mean to finish someday.
