I went through a huge phase of drabbles, (you might have noticed) and since then? Nada. I've written a fic for mery_smutmas, which I'm currently revising, but apart from that... it's pathetic.

I think maybe it's this fandom. Don't get me wrong- the people involved in HP have been absolutely wonderful (so far, fingers crossed), and I've made some good friends. But it's so *big*. There is a huge range of authors to choose from, and I seem to find such a huge amount of really good quality fic... it's extremely intimidating.

The truth is I might be happier in a little fandom. A place where I would have no competition. I don't think I'm a terrible writer, but neither am I particularly good, so maybe I should find a dark little corner, a neglected fandom where I can learn my trade. I need to practice.

I'm not going anywhere. I'm still hoping I have a couple of decent stories in me, and I may well continue to write drabbles and ficlets. I don't really know what the purpose of this is then- probably just a whinge. The lack of progress in my writing is depressing me.

New Years Resolution- write something every day. No matter how crap. Anything's better than what I have now.
