(actually, I'm convinced every time I post something that this will be the time that I flash the man behind the curtain at y'all and prove that I actually cannot write worth a damn. seriously. y'all make me feel like a pack mule in a herd of thoroughbreds. *g* I don't actually feel bad about that, it just is. ::shrugs::) Woman, I swear, you better GET OUT OF MY HEAD. *g* Seriously, every story I write I'm convinced it is my last, and have thought for the last 8 years or so. Which may be one reason I tend to have a couple things going at once, to make me commit. Except that it doesn't always work, so perhaps my subconcious is not so clever as it thinks. heh.
And Zelenka vexes me deeply because I love him so, so much in canon and yet in fanfic he is often written in ways I just can't go with. (yours, as I already said, I loved) So I end up skipping a lot of stories that feature him out of fear that they'll suck*, and then I feel bad because I want to read more stories that feature him. This is why I don't write him much either. I want to but I'm afraid of getting him wrong and adding to the (perceived) badness.
* of course, I mean "suck" as in "perfectly valid but doesn't work for me, personally" because I'm all about supporting everyone else's vision of the characters...yeah. *g*
