Wrote my arm (and back?) sore from writing in my notebook today. Did a tiny amount on my computer; basically expanded on some ideas. Finally submitted That One Piece to beta.
I think I started writing fanfic when I was around 14 or 15? I wrote furiously for a couple of years. Then came the time when I saw what I wrote and absolutely hated my own work. Cue years going by where I'd write, at most, twice a year. I'm trying to get back into it. Trying to shut out that part of my brain that tells me to stop writing -- because we don't need that part, do we. (How am I supposed to develop my skills if I don't write?)
