How's the writing going for you today?
Today's discussion: 'ship jumping (all flavours - het, slash, OTP, OT3 and anything else that is shipped that I've forgotten about)

[Unexpectedly jump ships (Fanfic flamingo) “Damn my fickle heart!”]
Do you ever do this? Do you find it easy or hard to get back to the 'ship you abandoned?

Date: Monday, June 11th, 2012 18:27 (UTC)I think I just add ships. :D While the older one may get pushed to back burner for a bit while I go and read ALL THE NEW PAIRING, RIGHT NOW, eventually they balance out again. (Mostly. Some new acquisitions never really take off, they just hover round the edges of the crowd.)
Edit: Oooh, and I wrote today! Just a handful of paragraphs, but that's still better than the last few days! And I also did some editing, and (for the "Other" tickybox) replied to my beta.

Date: Tuesday, June 12th, 2012 16:40 (UTC)I had a few people talking me off the ledge, but I am still pretty wigged and uncertain. Grar.
Re: shipping. I'm very new to this. I have precisely one ship right now (John/Sherlock), with MAYBE a hint of a second one in Molly/Greg. So... it'll be interesting to see where I go from here.
