Ramblings and Fic and Why Star might be quieter than normal...

[starsandsea]

The chapter I just posted of 'Batman's Files and Bruce's Diary' is going to be the last for a while. I don't know when the next chapter will be up, but I'm thinking maybe Dick's birthday. Maybe. But I'm basically going to be writing it when I feel like writing it, rather than feeling obligated to write it everyday.

I've been treading close to having a burn out for the last 3 weeks, and I think writing that everyday, as well as writing another story at the same time, something that I really don't like doing, has been draining me a lot. I also have some issues, as people have no doubt realized, about characterization, and the feeling that I have no real grasp on any of the characters I'm writing, or hope to write. So I'm going to be re-reading comics.

I'm also going to be taking a little break from fandom. Maybe just 3-4 days or something. I just need to... recharge, and relax for a bit. I'm going to try to keep up with the flist, but I will probably get behind in e-mails and stuff. I'm going to keep up with anything related to jsa_allstars, of course. Oh, and Jen, I hope to get the essay to you soon, but it might not be until next Thursday or Friday now. I'm not sure.

I'll be posting the next chapter of Master and Slave tomorrow, but I don't know when I'm next going to be posting any other fic. I'm going to be concentrating on writing AU's for the time being, with an exception of a Charlie drabble.

So... if I'm a bit quieter, that's why! :)

I know what you mean about posting daily, I was feeling like my personal Bruce had overrode my fic Bruce (why, yes, they are different! lol) with the Mail fic I was trying to do daily, that's one of the reasons I had to stop, even if I love the story. I just.. lost focus of what the character I was supposed to emulate was, since my take on him was so constant... I don't know if it's something like that for you, but in any case, a little distance helps a lot, I'm sure you'll be back on that horse in no time :)

Yes! That's exactly it, Mina! My personal Bruce has been overriding my fic Bruce. I was having problems with which one was which and writing him everyday was... difficult because I had no idea if he was still in character or what even 'in character' consisted of for this Bruce...

*huuuugs back* I hope you have a fantastic time with Wake! :D
