On plus side, tea.
Am frustrated at myself, as ever, for not being able to articulate what I'm trying to. Have added an ETA to the post about travelling solo as a woman that I made last night.
In other news, here are two response-to-CoE fics that I've read in the past 24 hours - practically polar opposites in how they deal with it, but nonetheless both good reads:
- Shift by iamshadow
- Dance Me to the End of Love by Otrame
My own writing is somewhat stalled. I have a bunch of things on the go (including those timestamps) but I'm struggling to get there. It's frustrating because right now I'm relying on fandom for a lot of my sense of community, and not producing anything feels like I'm severing myself from that. So I feel more desperate to write more, but am probably just shooting myself in the foot as the more I try to force myself to write, the less likely it is to happen. Heh.

(Anonymous) 2009-08-18 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)I know that feeling. I feel like if I'm not posting fic, then I'm not giving my fair share, actually. Like, that's what I bring to fandom, you know? I feel like when I don't write, I'm that person who endlessly takes pennies from the till at the store and never puts any back in.
You can talk fandom with me any time, bb.
