Remaining fannish

In an effort to remain fannish and put behind me what I'm just going to think of in my brain as the months of woe or maybe the months of woah! I have been signing up for things and trying get around to writing things and actually maybe finishing stuff.

I remember in the distant past when a week wouldn't go by without me producing something, be it something long and epic or just short and hopefully sweet. I miss being so productive and I'm sure the hangers on from those heady days are like, dude, where's all the content??

I'm going to put some dates and snippets up tonight and what I've got upcoming and hopefully will be finishing soon. I've signed up for two... TWO Big Bangs because I obviously ate my crazy flakes this morning but I have IDEAS and it's been a while since I had IDEAS so I'm starting to get enthused again.

I just wish I wasn't so tired all the time at the moment. Finally got to the gym last night though and I never thought I would be one of those people that would miss going to the gym and actually desperately crave it.

Starting to feel human again. Tiny steps.

I know it's bad, but I'm completely relying on recs for what I'm reading at the moment because I basically have only enough time to really skim the f-list so if you've read/written something recently that you think I'd like, please feel free to drop me a comment. SPN, XMFC, Stargate, the usual stuff. :)

IDEAS are good. Ones in allcaps are even better. <3

DUDE! I had package fail. I gave it to the flatmate to drop off at the post office and when I was cleaning up the loungeroom yesterday I FOUND IT SQUISHED IN A CORNER UNDER A PILE OF SOFT TOYS! I think he set it aside somewhere "safe" so he would not forget it/destroy it in his rampaging and then put stuff on top of it and completely forgot it existed.

I will be sending it post-haste (har har!) and apologies for it being RIDIK late. Argh! Maybe you'll get it for next year's birthday... :

YAY! This is good news! I was worried it was lost in the mail. \o/

Although, I do have to wonder about the nature of the "piles" of "soft toys" that lie around your house. *eyebrows waggle*

Err... heh! We only just got rid of a giant stuffed dog that was half my size that I got for a birthday because it was getting ridiculous trying to find places to put it. I have 2 nephews, 3 and 1, who visit regularly and the soft toys that were scattered throughout the house (my Zim and Gir, a vampire bear, the monkey from Madagascar I got as a present from leaving my last job (???) etc, etc have all been unearthed and brought out to the loungeroom on their visits and now reside there. :D

I know what you mean about not feeling productive, that's me in the last three years. I used to write a lot of fanfiction, now sparingly. But don't give up, I miss your writing.

I won't give up! I know writing is like anything - you get out of practice and it doesn't flow so easily and then you just get bound up and think the block will last forever.

You gotta woooooork it!

I miss my writing too! Nothing gives me escapism like losing a few hours pounding the keys. :D
