So let me share my ego collapse in fic writing. Writing SV got me spoiled stupid--In the last few years,I always had a pretty decent response to my stories. In fact lately, I've had what for me, is a wild response when I post SV. It's kind of mind boggling and god knows I love it. :) SpN, on the other hand...I post, and it's pretty much Cricketville. Dusty streets filled with tumbleweed. It's pretty humbling, I'll say. And disappointing, sure. Doesn't mean I'll stop writing it, because I love the various stories of these guys. But yeah, there are a hell of a lot of good writers, steep competition (it's the fandom of pain, in many ways, heh).

anyhoo, a shiny new fandom is winking at me, making me blush and giggle. I'll certainly never write in it, like loads of other fandoms I enjoy, but reading will be tons of fun. I need John Cooper icons! *G*

I keep forgetting to come to DW and read! I know that the two short J2 pieces I've ever posted have met with mostly crickets, but I'm not much of a producer and have no following in any fandom. I've got this massive J2 AU nearly done, and I'm prepared to have it read by no more than three or four people.

I just have this idea that every single reader in the SPN fandom is also writing, and that the supply actually outstrips the demand. I can't read fic when I'm writing, and I've been writing this fucker since three months after I joined the fandom.

What is this new fandom of which you speak?

Aaaaah, shiny new fandom is Southland. I'm a freak for clever cop shows!

As you know, I'm eagerly awaiting the epic! I'll gain four more pounds and count for two peeps... ;)

LOL! The little blue ducks? Or the yellow chicks?

I haven't heard of Southland. That's how tuned in I am. *looks it up* Now have! And I don't recognize any of the names in the cast. Does that mean I'm getting old?

The epic is almost ready.
