I just miss writing. I used to do it all the time and feel like this all the time, and now I do it none of the time, except just now. And it was only playing with someone else's toys in someone else's sandbox, but it was words and words and words, and they fit together so beautifully, and I have SO many purely original pieces I've never finished. I still feel gnawing dread that I'll never be able to do it again, but I had a moment near the end of this where I almost stopped too but I pushed through it, so if this, then maybe those?
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
BTW, if anyone doesn't know my fannish name, you can email me at my profile address. So far for OFMD, I've got a ficlet and a vid.

Wee adorable little drabble of a ficlet in the form of a script for the extended version of the co-captain scene (Not mine, just one I found, but it's so good and delightful! Mine is, uh, about 90,000 times longer).

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I love Fic Pon Farr. Congratulations! (off to read)

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I love it! It is really the first time I have read anything by someone I “know” so well through the written word (I have read Dana and FayJay and such, but I read them sort of simultaneously with getting to know them). It is so interesting how I hear JZ so clearly.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
Damn it, wee JZ, now I am crying.
