I keep having this weird epiphany. I'm writing tags at BL, very slowly, and I'm kind of okay with that right now (I'm sorry if the people I'm playing with aren't, but y'know). I'm watching Things With Jane Curtin in Them and I'm feeling, right at this moment, like I'm kind of over HP.
I'm kind of over HP. Maybe this is a temporary thing while I enjoy new and shiny, but I have been enjoying new and shiny a lot more now than I used to, and I'm kind of okay with that. It's strange to me that I would ever be okay with being kind of over HP, but I feel like that's the way I'm going.
It's kind of freeing, actually, to think wow, I don't have HP fic bunnies so I might be able to try writing some original stuff again. I'm less obsessed with RP so I can enjoy other things (because god knows doing lots of RP takes up so much time). And maybe being less actively fannish will mean I'll start seeking out more RL social interaction?
I don't know. It's kind of weird. I've been feeling kind of stuck in fandom but so desperately attached to it for quite a while, and it's kind of nice to be feeling okay about letting go a bit.
It feels like a good time to start making some changes in my life.
