PHWOOSH!
::blows dust off this thing::
There. That's a little better. Not much, but a little.
So...
Tori wants me to sign up for the
West Wing AU ficathon.
I am thinking about it. Maybe. Because it sounds interesting. And has lots of potential. And there is a very good chance we would get one another in it if not many more people sign up.
But then I think… I can't write anymore. I've lost that spark, whatever it was. I want to write. I just… can't. No matter how Bex tries to poke me along or give me prompts. And what if I sign up and then can't write for it?
It's like all thing West Wing have taken a permanent vacation from my brain.
And it's not like there aren't things I've been watching instead. There's been a major re-watching of Buffy and Angel lately. But it's just that - re-watching. And I am absolutely head over heels in love with Torchwood and Who, but as much as I am intrigued by ideas for fics and such, the characters just won't speak to me. And even if they did… what new stories could I tell about them? Case files just aren't my thing. And I refuse to go the pregnant Ianto route. ::shudder::
And there's tons of other stuff I watch but I'm just not fannish enough or invested enough to want to write them, to figure out what motivates, to decide why the characters are like they are. It's enough just to see Starbuck be emo!girl or to read someone else's fic or analysis of her.
I miss having a fandom. I miss having characters in my head chatting to me. And what does it say about me that I miss a television show so much?
So still... ficathon. Should I or shouldn't I? I've got two days to decide.

Meanwhile, I have been an angst-filled, hope-loving girl in the fic department lately. Not necessarily romantic fic (though of course I love it!) but all kinds of fic.
So rec me something. Any fandom. Any type of story.
(Good lord, last night I was reading Post-series Angel fic and S3 Gilmore Girls fic, so that gives you a clue on how interested I am in just about anything right now.)
Give me a nice juicy emotional story to read!
