On writing, and being driven to write...

You know it's not a good idea to write your own fics when the only reason you're doing so is because no one's been writing new stuff in the fandom you feel like reading.

That's all.

It's a perfectly good excuse. You don't find it? Make it!

I'd rather find it, 'cause then I wouldn't know the punches :P

Maybe this is why so many authors pass sleepless nights finishing up their script. Come awake-time (not morning), they don't remember the ending anymore!

(As I'm 'special', I can just let something I've written lie for a week and will not remember its content. It's pretty neat on that. =D)
