Next manifesto, a change!
First up, my most recent manifesto:
Touya and Yuki from CCS and Tsubasa
Next, thoughts on writing.
I'm tremondously jealous of sailormac because she has the willpower to sit down and take a couple of months and just finish a fic before releasing it. I feel so flighty in exchange. So, I'm going to try to change my style a bit. I'm working on several long fics (over 20,000 words), and making sure I COMPLETE them before I post. I'm hoping it will cut down on some of the... problems... I've had with a few select "fans."
It's more difficult than it sounds to write flat out, because I am used to the comments and encouragement from reviewers. That tends to motivate me... but we'll see, right?
For me, writing is an interactive process. I need to be able to get a reaction, or else I feel I've failed.
