I opened a fanfic document for the first time since July, when I attempted to keep writing something that I'd left since April.
It's a little frustrating how my ability/motivation/muse seems to come and go for months at a time. I think it has something to do with schedules and the weather changes because I write so much more in the winter than in the summer. Maybe it's because I'm less exhausted. Maybe it's just how I am. idek it's always interesting. But I want to see if I can keep writing this fic because I loved the idea and wrote 16k words before I stopped
Of course that doesn't stop me from abandoning a 55k fic from NaNo 2012. I did win NaNo that year since I completed the word count. But as far as fic completion, it needed another 10k words and I burned myself out. Of course now that one is to the point where it would just need a complete rewrite since my writing style has changed and gotten better (I hope)
