sometimes RL gets in the way, but I always wander back here eventually

The last few months since my last post ... have been difficult, to say the least. I don't really want to talk about the stuff that happened, because I'm trying to focus on the good things. So, a list, in no particular order, of the good things that happened in the last two weeks:

1. Passed all my university exams with flying colours - I AM FREE NOW, THANK GOD
2. No longer suicidal or actively depressed
3. My autistic brother hugged me and said he was proud of me (which he has never done before in my entire life, I nearly started sobbing)
4. Tomorrow I'm flying out to Sydney for a quick holiday and to see the Harry Potter museum exhibit
5. I've finished an original fiction novella at 20k
6. I'm 10k into a meta BNF!AU fanfiction for the Avengers
7. Was given American Gods as a gift, bought Unwind and Inheritance, so I've got some lovely (re)reading material for the holidays

As seen in point 6, I've starting writing fanfiction again. I had been writing more original fiction during the accidental hiatus because it was a coping mechanism for the most part. Strangely enough, I think writing that story helped me more than my friends or family, which sounds horrible, but is true.

Anyway, in the works is more of that model!AU for XM:FC, the fic described in point 6, and maybe some Sherlock if I feel up to it. I wanted to sign up for a Big Bang, but I don't think I'm quite ready to jump right back in like that.
