Writing Breakthrough
So after I posted yesterday's entry, two things happened. First, I tried to relabel my icons and didn't do it properly and everything reverted to my default icon, so I had to change everything back to their original keywords, and the whole experience was an hourlong headache I did not need to subject myself to in any way.
Secondly, I finally had the breakthrough I've been waiting for with writing fic. I even posted a new story to ao3 (a short, smutty Classic Who Jamie/Polly/Ben story). I definitely feel like it's a sandbox I'm more comfortable playing in now, and I already have an idea of a Jo Grant/Mike Yates story of a decidedly different tone. I've also written a couple of pages of a humorous Star Wars story focusing on Rose Tico that I'm hoping I'll have done before my trip this weekend.
Honestly, it felt so good just to sit down and WRITE again. I spent all of last night casually flipping back and forth between the last two episodes of Frontier in Space and just typing on my keyboard and it was one of the most pleasant nights I've had at home alone in recent memory. I'm just hoping I can keep this energy going into Autumn, since I really want to write some fics centered around that time of year. I think I may even revisit some finished drafts I abandoned a few years ago and rework them into material I can actually post.
But yeah, I'm writing again! It only took talking about wanting to write again for a year for it to actually happen.
