Slashfic-athon

estepheiaI wrote the first 500 or so words of my slashficathon story but I'm not happy with what I wrote. There's no UST. Not for five cents. And somehow Buffy crept into the equation. Character A mopes about her and isn't remotely interested in character B. Darn! *growls* And I thought the pairing was easy. Character A is just so stubborn....

mikelesq is working on a Firefly fic. Yay. He hasn't posted yet, but it looks like it's going to be fun.
I wisheliade would get into a writing groove again. I miss her fic. I like the Sidelines universe, but I enjoyed her off-the-cuff fics and ficlets even more. They were fresher, more immediate and felt as if writing them was more fun than work.
I also miss![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-syndicated.gif)
wiseacress's h/c series. I feel the need for more S/X. Definitely.
Still want to read S/X, although right now I feel like I'll never want to write them again. Or maybe it's just Xander I don't want to write anymore.
I feel like I'm predominantly seen as a S/X writer, but I want people to read my stories because they're written by me, not because they're S/X.... Sorry if I sound kinda mopey tonight. Maybe I'm just tired.
I wanted to stay up for the Sunday 100, but it's already midnight here in Germany... maybe I should just go to bed. *Yawn*
ETA: The Sunday 100 challenge is posted and it's a freebie. No theme or anything. Hmmm. Oh well, bed. Now.

Never doubt that you are an excellent writer!
Thank you
There are pairings I will never actively seek out and probably even avoid :::cough Xander/Giles cough Buffy/Giles cough::: unless I really really love the author in question.
There are only a handful or so authors who I'd read even if they posted the phonebook, sorta.
And I definitely won't read everything just because it's labelled S/X or Spike/Anya or Spike/Ethan... um, actually I think I'd gladly read EVERY Spike/Ethan just because there aren't that many, but definitely not every S/X because there are tons and many of them
suckaren't terribly good.I hope you continue to recommend stories even without BBB... Because I gladly read anything the right person recommends...
Thanks again for your kind words and for patting my bruised ego.
