Date: 2011-05-28 03:35 am (UTC)Yeah, narcissistic was the wrong word, but my brain wasn't supplying the right word! *g* I have several favourite authors whose work I pounce on the minute it appears.
I'm absolutely miserable when I have writer's block. I've always wanted to write and writing fan fiction was the first step along the way because it allowed me to tell my stories without necessarily having to be too concerned about the conventions of writing (such as no head hopping! *g*). I've since had a few stories published but I still love writing fan fiction because you get feedback from your readers and if you do a bit of head hopping, no one is going to jump all over you and tell you to rewrite it! *g* I enjoy being part of a fandom too. I'm a quiet, somewhat solitary sort of person in RL, so fandom allows my alter-ego out to play. ;)
It's fun to have friends throw obscure and weird challenges at you sometimes, isn't it? I think it stretches you as a writer if you 'have to' write a pairing you don't normally do.
Lucky you! I read too fast so I'm pretty much always scratching for something new to read. I have three books I recently purchased that I'm saving for when I'm absolutely desperate (and after I get Bodie and Doyle out of the woods in my big bang story).
