Date: 2022-01-04 06:37 am (UTC)I don't blame you! They can be fun but like you said, stressful. I really wanted to do one idea and then I couldn't get it off the ground. Fortunately my artist was also in a busy state so we mutually quit. The other one was for a Reverse Bang and I just fell in love with the art idea and since it wasn't claimed after, like, twelve hours, I figured it was a sign. That didn't account for my lack of muses. Then again, I shouldn't have taken on big challenges when at that point, I hadn't even written the ship in question before (Sam/Bucky). I think I would be more comfortable now.
You're very prolific for sure! The lockdown/pandemic was legit the only reason I got back into active fandom mode/writing again so I totally relate. Longer form stories definitely leave you more room to play around in and expand and can be nice in their own right.

Date: 2022-01-04 07:23 am (UTC)It depends on what your goals and expectations are. Maybe shifting them is better. So, instead of looking at it as failure/success, you focus more on the effort. So, it's not that you failed at the Big Bang for example, you just wrote what you could and that's okay.
Yeah, I guess having more time or not wanting to focus on the pandemic all the time makes writing a fun prospect again! I think getting into Smallville was a big part of it too. Before that I only wrote HTF fics and didn't read anything, but actually reading stuff inspired me to write more.
I think the main issue I have with achieving longer fics is the time it takes. Writing is one thing, but the editing process is the real struggle. A lot of times I just get to a point where I wrap the story up earlier for the sake of my sanity, lol.

Date: 2022-01-04 07:16 pm (UTC)Totally fair. I will try to aim for that mentality. Plus not now doesn't mean never, right? Shifting expectations is definitely a long term goal that I need to work on. Along with my need for things to be perfect on the first go. My sister calls me out on that one a lot. :D
For me, I had never worked remotely (we weren't set up for it) so when things were slow, I had this extra time and I just drifted back into writing. I can see how getting into a new fandom can spark up some new interest too. For the longest time I only wrote Smallville fic and I think recently, signing up for stuff has made me branch out.
Oh yeah, true about the time longer fics take and it also feels like there needs to be more planning involved. Longer fics tend to need some sort of structure while I am more of a 'have a few ideas for scenes in my head and go with the flow' type person. The editing is definitely also another factor. I think I used to write multi chapter stories more when I was originally in fandom because I had a beta on hand that I would chat with every day basically (oh, AIM- I miss you) and it was easy to send them stuff immediately and vice versa.
