Yesterday I decided to read some GSR fanfiction. The fandom I wrote my first fics for. I wrote many fics and deleted them all from fanfiction net. I regret that now, but at the time it felt like the write thing to do. Still reading GSR fanfics yesterday made me realize how much I loved that show and how much I loved the characters of Gil Grissom and Sara Sidle. And I truly believed that I had a good handle on them to write good fics. I lost interest in the show somewhere in S7 of S8. And I haven't really watched it anymore. But there were so many great moments in this ship on the show. The chemistry was great.
Reading the fics inspired me to see if I could write for this fandom again. Part of me really wants to because it reminds me of what writing meant to me back then. It gave me so much. These days I keep searching for what writing did for me back then. I'd love to have that back. I know writing was my way of escaping and dealing with my own stuff and maybe now I don't need to escape anymore? I don't know. But I did start a fic and I'm going to try to finish it! So far it's going well. Slowly but well. I have one more week at work and then I've got two weeks off. In those weeks I want to write.
