I have never written a Mary Sue. Self-inserts don't interest me, not even in my private daydreams or sexual fantasies.
I'm ridiculously pleased that I finished and posted the translation of my Büttenwarder fic. It's a translation from German into Low German, and the reason it took me so long is that I'm very insecure about my Low German and practically checked everything I wrote multiple times. I also got stuck on lot of vocabulary questions, and even with the internet, resources are scarce. The result is probably not without errors, but I'm proud that I managed to write 5000 words in Low German, and glad to add a little bit to what's out there to read.
Now I'm looking at a little ficlet I got back from beta. It's one of these instances where the fic is okay, but somehow lacking, and even with the betareader's suggestions it's probably going to take me a while to get the it into shape.
Not sure if I'll write more on my crossover fic today, but I'm quite happy with what else I've achieved so far today, and given that I left my crossover at a scene I'm looking forward to, I'm not worried about taking a break from it.
