Not that anybody cares, but have some tl;dr. Because I am in a curious state right now, with no work to do at the moment, and feel like whining writing about it.

So yes. My weird state of being.

It's not so much writer's block, I don't think, because I finished my JE Fuh-q-fest just fine. It's more like I feel idea-less. Like I can't write without getting prompts from somewhere outside of myself. Watching things doesn't spawn the feeling of 'that needs fic' anymore and I can't just sit down and start writing porn because I can't come up with a scenario that hasn't been done fifty million times. The few ideas that I do have I don't think anybody will be interested in reading.

I'm not sure how I feel about it, or what it makes me as a writer. Probably a bad one who should stop. And if I stopped writing entirely I doubt anybody would notice at this point. When was the last time I posted anything...? >.>; Especially when other people are posting out of the woodwork, and I get the singularly irrational feeling that nobody actually reads what I post anymore.

Ugh. This is what happens when I have two periods in a row free. I need more work.


And because dragons make everything better...

I feel the same way. I used to come up with ideas all the time, and now they're all things that even if I want to write them, I can't get them out. :/

I think you should write what you want, regardless of whether you think others will want to read it or not.

I am, sort of. They're in a notebook and I like them, and the chances of anybody else seeing them are slim to none. I should be taking satisfaction from it, but it's hard when you want to share them.

*whisper* I miss your fic.

Er.

I know how you feel, if that makes any sense. I think that the bulk of the problem with the fandom is that there are so many new writers popping out of the woodwork, and that the bulk of them are just really bad at writing. *bricked*
It really makes it difficult for older, more experienced writers to get their work noticed, and even more difficult for new writers (who are good at it, just not well known at all) to get their work noticed. Even so, just the sheer QUANTITY of writers for this fandom in particular, are so overwhelming that it's just difficult to get noticed anyway. So basically I just wanted to say that you should keep writing, because your work is really really good, and somehow this turned out to be a mini-rant >
