Ficathons should come with Xanax…
You know, I always forget how much I hate posting fic. I'm actually physically nauseous the entire day, develop a frighteningly dependent relationship with my inbox and proceed to kindle a deep burning hatred for almost every word posted.
Why do we put ourselves through this crap? And the thing is that I truly do enjoy the actual writing process - no matter how much it makes me want to jab something long and pointy into my brain and keeps me up at night and induces a legitimately worrisome caffeine problem. I mean, why else would anyone do this? But the posting… and I don't have psychosomatic reactions to bloody anything so why this? Bleh.
And yet, and yet - "Writing is the only thing that, when I do it, I don't feel I should be doing something else." - Gloria Steinem
