Also, twenty years omggg that's an inspiration in itself! It all started with a fic (hers) and a comment (mine, by email, because that's how it worked in those days)... And here we are. Still with the fic and the emails. ♥
I want to think this is an irrational fear but I DON'T KNOW. :( We could always decide that, having put all this hard work into writing, we have worn little creative grooves in our brains we can always return to? That sounds like it should work, right?
I suspect that guilting myself and stressing is not helpful. (when is it ever.) It isn't ever, is it? And yes, I suspect the same. Ficcing isn't supposed to be a chore.
I had to work and now I've been attacked with a social thing I can't get out of tomorrow and ugh. Oh noooo that is terrible timing! I hope you have managed to carve out a little bit of time for yourself, and that the week brings both inspiration and opportunity to write. (I've had both, so thank you for the good wishes! They worked!)
