Various ramblings

louiseluxI've lost the plot of the Potter fandom, if there ever was one, and some people would say that there wasn't. I don't know who's writing the good stuff, or what the cool new pairings are (as if I cared). I tend to stick to writers that I know I like, and don't tend to experiement much anymore in my reading. I'm still stuck on Remus and Sirius, much the same as I was way back in the days when Snape/Lupin was a pretty wild idea. Not that I'm nostalgic for those days at all; there's so many more writers now, even if I never do get round to reading them.

It was a lot of fun to write something in 90 mins, for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
contrelamontre. Very refreshing not to be agonising over every word, fretting, rewriting and then losing sight of what it was I originally intended. I'm not saying that one way produces better results than the other, but it was good to have a point to stop at, because that's what I'm bad at. Endlessly tweaking until the thing is utterly different from what I started out with. Sometimes that's good, depending on the quality of what I've written, which in itself changes form day to day, but other times I lose clarity and objectivity -in other worse, I just mess it up.

I've accepted that job officially now. For the first time ever I'll have underlings - three of them! I'm going to call them all Dave. Or not.
