Thank you for thinking that is impressive. I actually never posted anything until maybe April this year. I have about 50,000 words of something that I started a year ago and need to finish so that I can post it. Probably another 4 or 5 chapters.
I sent it to my beta, after I had been sitting on it for 10 months and she loved it. Which is a big *go me* and said that I needed to keep writing because she wanted to know what happens next. :)
I enjoy writing. It is what I now do for fun. I try to get better every time. My beta has been instrumental in that regard. I am very lucky to have her.
I actually wrote her a birthday fic the other day in her preferred fandom, Spangel which is Buffy 'verse Spike and Angel. It was pretty schmoopy and I surprised her because I'd never actually written that pairing before.
I think last week I was kind of schizophrenic since I posted f/f, the Spangel thing, the Dean/Sam things you shouldn't do with fruit thing and then a bunch of drabbles too.
Maybe I should pick one and stick with it. LOL
Thanks. I appreciate your kind words.
btw-to your point in your original entry, one of my friends posted something yesterday. When I commented she thanked me and said that I had picked up on all of the things she was trying to accomplish with the piece, but she said that when she sat down to write what came out of her fingers was NOT what she had planned. I think that goes to your point of doing rather than thinking about the doing. You may surprise yourself, and pleasantly.
I like you and I hope you don't mind the extra long comment from hell. :)
