The best fic I've ever written, I think, is stuff that knocks around in the back of my head for a few days and that I then sit down and write in a single session. I haven't had a chance to do that for a while, so I might put a bit of a writing moratorium on myself just to see if I can get back into the groove.

And Hornblower is lovely. The fandom is amazingly sweet, newbie-friendly and anti-wanky, and the canon is stuff that I can actually respect as, you know, a thinking individual. It's just icing on the cake that the big, obvious pairing in the fandom that I'm in reminds me a bit of Q/O -- except, you know, Qui-Gon is unquestionably unbalanced, Obi-Wan isn't as articulate, and the whole teacher/padawans-can't-have-sex thing, which I completely don't buy in SW even though it can make stuff interesting, has serious weight and teeth to it. <3 <3 <3

Alas, I fear it is not to your taste, but if you have time to read or even to watch, tell me, and I can hook you up.
