Under the wide, wide sky

Hello, everyone! I am back. Back from the land of RL and of not-working laptops. It has been so long since I last posted on LJ that I have three fics to claim. Anyway, my laptop has just been repaired (by a lovely man who chatted and drank coffee with me) and the sun is shining and spring is in the air. So, happy Omi.

This year I've decided not to sign up for any fests (well, not unless a prompt really jumps out at me). I've been thinking through and dealing with various RL issues - such as retraining, career-wise - and have needed to take a bit of a step back from fandom to have the mental space as well as time to do so. The good news, though, is that I've got a few fic ideas bubbling away, and maybe even an OF idea, too. Plus my RL is a bit more sorted now. Anyway, taking the pressure of deadlines away has been liberating, and I'm looking forward to getting back into writing. I think I've reached a point anyway where I want to try developing my own ideas for stories, rather than needing a prompt to get me started. We'll see how it goes...

And to finish, one fic rec.

A Few Brief Moments by disapparater is the most wonderful remix of / prequel to my fic Sleeping Dragon. I cried when I read it because it was so perfect, both as a remix of a fic that was emotional to write, but also as a lovely fic in its own right. There is a wonderful sweet poignancy to the fic, along with such a strong sense of love, and it is everything I could have wanted for my boys. If you haven't already, rush along and read it now. :)
