Feeling decidedly foolish

Oct 11, 2009 20:51

So, this is the thing with me and my Snarry love...  I love love Snarry, love the pairing and the awesomely talented fandom that brought them alive.  But, now I have all these fics that I know must be wonderful sitting there, but I can't read them because, well *cough* I haven't read past Book Four.  (Haha, I know I know, what a good fan I am.)  So on the one hand, I don't want to read these fics because they have spoilers, and on the other hand, I already know most of what happened -- the general gist and what happened to all the main characters.  (I know I know, I should have resisted harder.  But when you see a shining new fic from one of your fav authors on one of your fav pairings, oooh it's unbearably tempting!)

So, really, instead of agonizing and then going back to reread the older Snarry fics, I should just buck down and finish the canon.  Because with all the time I spent rereading old fics, I can probably reread the whole canon series.#

*les sigh*

And now that it seems a number of talents in the Snarry fandom are winding down their interests or leaving the fandom, it makes me sad *sob*  (My fav artist Yukipon was gone for months before I stumbled across her blog and read about her departure.  Very sad about that too.)  Don't want the party to end, even if I'm almost always a lurker.

And now I'll wake up from my fandom daydreaming and actually try to get something done before Sunday ends.

# = which is what I want to do, and also the prohibiting factor since it is kinda long (and definitely not about snarry)

P.S.  And now that I wrote everything out, I'm feeling even more foolish.  Alrighty then, Book One here I come (tonight, at bedtime, by which time hopefully I did get SOME work done.) 
P.P.S.  And I really have Snarry fandom to thank for inspiring me to want to write (and realizing how hard it is, but no matter, I'll still keep it on the list.)
