Most spectacular FAIL

[kaworu_renritsu]

Argh, the only time I FAILed so much was my HP/Bleach x-over with 0 comments. This time I have the only comment. From my recipient. So all I can say is iFAIL >.< I hate this fic, I hate this fandom, and I don't want to do anything with it any more

It does stink that your writer didn't come through for you so you didn't receive a story, and it's a shame that the exchange mod didn't manage to find someone to fill in when they didn't (though I know that's hard) - so I can see why you feel bad about that. I'd like to encourage you to not feel bad about your own story, though

Wow, haven't seen you for a long time ^_^ <3

Well, I know it's mostly about me. I didn't like the prompts in the first place and tried to twist every one of them, and practically made it as hard on myself as possible including the elements I'm worst at (like sex scenes). So in the end I just feel drained, and with no comments I don't know if I've achieved anything at all, if it's so bad that nobody wants to read it or it's okay but I'm just not in the mainstream (which obviously happened with my HP/Bleach x-over, because I know it's not that bad). I wouldn't have been so annoyed if there were no other Eli/Rush stories in the same fic exchange that received dozen+ comments in the first day... Anyway.

And it's not that I'll stop ideas if they keep coming, but as it is I don't think I'm interested in the fandom anymore. I don't know, I'll wait until Human, but for now I don't have any ideas.

Thanks, you actually made me feel a lot better <3

I haven't been on LJ much for the last couple of years - health issues, so work and my kids have taken pretty much all of my energy. I've been feeling better and trying to be on more lately, though still not nearly as regularly as I used to.

I'm glad my comment helped, and I'm very glad you're not planning to stop writing when you have ideas. I understand about wavering interest in the SGU fandom, too - I really WANT to like the show and the fandom, but I'm still not really sold on it. Maybe the second half of the season will be convincing!

I hope your health is better now. As fir kids... most of my time is eaten by my nephew, so I know what it's like (and I'm not even his mom ^_^)

Well, David Blue boasted on his Twitter that the second half of the season will make the old fans happy... but considering he's not a Gater himself, we'll have to see for ourselves.
