Fic writing and woe is me

+ First, I should link to the gifts I got in the last two exchanges.

Why? Because they were absolutely awesome, that's why.

For [Bad username or site: je_justfriends @ site], I got a fantastic Who/Arashi crossover, featuring Matsumiya friendship and Eleven. It's great and it made me laugh a lot and everybody is IC and come on, Who/JE crossover!

And for Parallels Fic I got Ryuusei no Kizuna post-canon fluff, with Yukinari, Koichi and a family party. It's really, really heartwarming and funny.

I'm extremely happy until now this exchange season. Oh, don't I love exchanges.

+ Actually, yes, yes I do. Because I'm the kind of writer that works on feedback. I have silly ideas all the time and just stating them is enough for me. I don't need to write it down.

So I write for the comments or rather, for people's reactions. I don't really get those people who write for themselves. I write for hypothetical others and exchanges are awesome because I get to have a real, tangible recipient that I can tailor my fic for. It gives me motivation to finish the damn fic.

(All of this brought to you because

A - Remix is being hard to write
B - my latest fic has gotten very few comments and that makes my inspiration leave in a huff. I kinda wish it didn't matter so much to me.)
