fanfiction fun??

[rose_griffes]

As I've been whining to daybreak777 about writing, this idea came up: I should be having fun while writing. Huh?

[Poll #1789400]

I thought about letting y'all select "I reject your binary choices!" but then the choices wouldn't be binary, would they? So if you want that to be your answer, you'll just have to comment. *grins*

Writing fic is slogging through the muck of misplaced, context-less words, arranging them into some semblance of order, then hosing them down to remove the remaining debris. It's not fun, although I do sometimes find it satisfying and I nearly always like the finished product.

What about you?

Nope. But *having written fanfic* is fun. ;)

Hee, maybe that's not fair actually, sometimes it's really fun while doing it too. And sometimes it's just really hard work.

I must like it if I spend my free time doing it to the extent that I do. Because I'm fairly lazy. Hee.

Exactly!

I think it's mostly that the story has more willpower than I do after a certain point. Hah!
