Updated list and a other things. Also, this instant coffee isn't half bad.

tl;dr

I updated my fic masterlist here, which actually didn't take that much time. I thought I'd been woefully neglectful about the whole thing, but I actually didn't have a lot to add or fix

Maybe you're just ready to write ofic.

[lustmordred]

I think so, yep.

I still hold out sad, sad hope that you will one day finish that 30StM fic and the Melt to Brilliance sequel. Like I said: I am sad and also a bit pathetic when it comes to those two things. I am okay with that. I don't particularly think you should give it to the vultures over there, but that's just me and we know all too well my feelings about those fucking idiots. (And if "we" didn't, well, my choice of phrasing there just gave it away. Heh

[lustmordred]

I might. I don't know. I do want to resurrect a lot of my original characters from that story in something else, though. I love PJ and Mal and PJ's wife and their twins, etc. I think they're awesome characters and it would suck to leave them stranded in something like that. The Melt to Brilliance sequel... I don't hold out a hell of a lot of hope for finishing that. I also had that sequel to the Tim/Jared thing, which was actually pretty cool I thought, but I wrote most of it in one go and then ran out of steam. I left a lot of things unfinished in that fandom, sadly

I started out reading Highlander, then Roswell, then Withcblade, then the Labyrinth... dabbled in those and finally ended up in Harry Potter where I set up camp and had loads of fun for a long time.

I don't really care about the show anymore. Which is kind of sad because I used to look forward to it every week and be very upset if I missed it.

I've lost touch with most people I used to talk to in fandom, too. In some ways that's sad, but a lot of the time I don't mind it much and I think that's also a sign that I need to move on.

I know, right? Like, a lot of the time I'll watch a movie or see a show and I'm thinking, that is the slashiest shit EVAR, there has to be fic. I have to go find it at once. But then there isn't fic and I'm sad :(

Thank you. I think I'm doing much better this semester \o/

I get this. Totally. I miss the HPVerse daze...but have gotten over that little mourning. SPN was so much fun while the fic was coming off the ends of my fingerbones fast and hot....but that too fades. It all fades. I know I'm so unpopular in fandoms for telling good writers they are good and should be writing original....but you are good and should be writing original.

[lustmordred]

Why in the world would that make you unpopular? Is it just me or are people getting way more sensitive about things?

And thank you. That's always nice to hear :)

[zagzagael]

It's not a new thing, it's an older thing - from about ten years ago onwards. It has to do with writers feeling "disvalued" if you tell someone they should be writing original instead of fanfic. It's very difficult for some fanfic writers to hear/understand/accept that writing fic is not the same as writing original. It caused huge wank back in the HPDay. But I am sincere when I say this to you.

[lustmordred]

I am so glad I missed the memo about that one when I was writing then. I'd have been forced to take offense all the time. That's a bit ridiculous really, getting offended by a compliment. I mean, writers are neurotic, that's a fact, but that's just kind of stupid.

I didn't think you weren't sincere. Thank you.
