oy, my friends

As some of you may know,(and god knows i'm making it hard for you not to) I finished my big story that I've been working on since I think November last year. I could look it up to be sure but I'm too lazy.

I haven't looked at it since, because I know it's got to be picked over for mistakes and whatnot before I post it in my own little archive-sort-of(DW). I'm not eager to do so. Let's just say if that fic was a relative and showed up unannounced at my door, it'd be spending the holidays in several different trash bags in the trunk of a car at the airport in Newark.

I've also posted another fic that took me a bazillion years to finish and posted that hither and yon, but that one I didn't post as a WIP. I have one more part of another SpN story that I have been posting as a WIP. This one, Impossible Things, is fun to write. Sometimes I laugh out loud at bits I write. I think parts of it are pretty darn funny and it can be as goofy as I want because this one is mostly just me fucking around, like Alien Boy or How I Spent My Summer Vacation. I had the *best* time with A Young Kryptonian's Travels--that thing was a hoot to write! I loved fucking with Clark! I should write more humor, it's very satisfying for me. But once again I've wandered far afield of my point, which is to say that all this is productivity is kind of surprising me but it's cool. I was a little afraid that my disappointment in the lack of interest in my fics would make me slow down but oddly it's having the opposite effect--weird, right? Hey, I'm not complaining. (not toooo much) I feel more inspired than I have in a while. I guess it's kind of getting good to me, as we used to say back in the day. ;)

I usually cut stuff this long so as not to clog up folks pages, but heck, today I feel like flaunting my floral-patterned-granny pantie-covered ass in public, so there. And as a sign of the wisdom and maturity I've gained through the years, I'm not going to close with na-nana-boo-boo.

hahaha--yeah, 'course! :)

so you got more feedback there than you do in spn stuff?

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, definitely. Not a ton, but getting ten comments on a fic felt pretty good to me. *G* Mostly I could expect at least six or seven per story. I think at the time I entered the fandom, a lot of the really big writers had moved on, and it wasn't as big a fandom as SpN, or whatever. I think folks were more willing to take a chance on a newbie too, which I certainly was at the time.

Right... it's funny isn't it? You don't post to a lot of communities do you?

Shoo, Girl, I post to everyone I can think of, lol! I'm like flinging these things anywhere they'll stick! I mean, I've gotten some very nice response to things like Lodi, but I think I'm just too interested in AUs and maybe this is a fandom not too interested in AUs and OCs. Ach, who knows! *flings hands up* I'll just keep writing the things and let the chips fall where they may!

yeah that's kind of how i feel. Brie and I wrote a fic we weren't particularly proud of - and it got rec'd and had a few gimics and people loved it...

the one we tortured ourselves over? researched? etc? heheh hardly anyone read.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

which one was that? it seems like you always get lots of fb!

oh we do - but the radio one - then again i just might... was our most commented upon ever (is that even english?)

I mean it's okay but it's flush - and we both knkow that - it's not even particularly well written heheh but I guess peopel just liked it.

sometimes, I think it's about when things get posted. You know? What's on fandoms mind at the time.
