tigris_lilsisthinks I should take a month's break from the internet.  She says it might let me write original stuff again.


I am... actually considering it.

I'll miss you if you do *hugs* But I agree...it might help. I know that whenever I'm not on my computer I plot out random stories for my own enjoyment; things that make no sense from a fandom point of view and would never survive being written down, but fun to think about.

I wish you glommage and much creativity :D

If you're anything like me, it's only going to drive you up the wall. I can do no-internet when I'm busy, but sitting around and not having the pressure valve called internet makes me too antsy to write.

But then, I'm pretty sure nothing short of a gun to my head could make me sit down and really write original fiction, despite all the attempts I've made. So maybe that's just me. I'd miss your brilliant, brilliant brain, though.

If you think that it will help you recharge your creative batteries go for it :D

I'd miss you if you took a break, but I think it would really be good for you. Keep a written journal so we can have whatever neat insights you come up with. Good luck!

I'll miss checking up on your drabbles, but every so often it is a good idea to take a break from the internet and remember what else there is.

Oh, I plot out stories all the time. Most of them are pure self-indulgence with superpowers and total Mary-Sues. *hee* They're tons of fun but far too intricate and long to ever be written.

Thanks! I'm thinking if I do it - and that's still a fairly large if - it won't be until January, just because I'm still so in love with Glee and don't want to miss anything when it airs again.

God yes, I know exactly what you mean. Or a pairing that only makes sense to you and no one else would read, yes? I have one right now, it's crazy, but so fun.

The most I've ever written was my junior year of high-school, before I discovered Supernatural and completely fell into fandom. That year, I wrote a screenplay I haven't reread in half a decade because of how horrible it is and a forty-page short story about gay vampires. High-school was much more productive with original works than any time since.

If I do take a haitus, I think it'll be January next year.

When I was at college, walking to and from class, I would write Supernatural episodes in my head, where I guest-starred - either RPF or in-universe.

[tigriswolf]

I'm still not sure yet.

Oh, yeah, I would still totally write fanfic. I just wouldn't post anything during the month. Except possibly at comment_fic. And I'm still considering if I would reply to comments or not.

[tigriswolf]

I haven't decided yet if I'll actually do it. It would be easier if I had anything else in my life going on right now.

You don't have a couple of waiting projects to be worked on or adventures to be had? I always have too many things. Do you want suggestions?

All I have in my life right now is volunteering three hours four days a week as a receptonist and half-heartedly looking for paid employment.
