writer!fail and other plaintive vocalizations
Here is the situation: I posted part two of This is Home July 26 2010, which means - to my absolute fucking horror - that it will have been an entire goddamn YEAR between updates if I don't get part three up soon.
I've always known I write at the pace of a snail on Thorazine, but oh god. A year. Part three stands at 5K at the moment and it's still not done - the second half of it has blanks I need to fill in and re-shuffle.
Things I'm worried about:
1. It's going to come off as boring.
2. Because there's very little comedy here
3. And no Kirk/McCoy
4. It's all Sam Kirk
5. Sweet robot Christ, a fucking *year* - what if there's no one left who wants to read the damn thing?
Yes, I write for myself - if you're in fandom long enough you realize that the fics you want to read the most are the ones you're going to have to write yourself - but I like writing for other people, too. Writing for an audience of one is sad!face, but that shit is my own fault (A YEAR).
Okay. Now that I've got that out my system.
