My inbox today... yeah, that probably would help my writer's block.

...and you left them and us hanging flat! No fair! Go get layed or whatever you need and get on with the show!

That... is the most interesting way I've ever had someone ask me for a fanfiction update.

Would that I could, my friend. Would. that. I. could.

Just posting up a link makes me uncomfortable. Even saying to my own FL, "Hey, I wrote this fic - look, if you're interested" takes a lot of self-badgering. I have serious self-esteem issues when it comes to my writing, which should be odd, considering I that I post up as much as I do. Believe you me, I have notebooks full of fan fic that will probably never see the light of the Internets.

I'm still searching for the A work, honestly. I couldn't even grade my own stuff, since I look at it then at everyone else and wonder why I even bother. Not because they're particularly better writers, but I'm not producing something that will catch a person's interest. Other than my own.

What's the fanfic you're proudest of?

I'd probably give that spot to two stories - Back In The Bottle (a Buffy/Brimstone crossover) and the one I last produced, Celestial Navigation (Fullmetal Alchemist). (Runners up would be either one of my Cowboy Bebop/Trigun crossovers. The research time on that was brain-breaking. Not to mention the research material in general was brain-breaking. I hate you quantum physics and wormholes and black holes and dark matter!!! But those fics received decent reviews, so I can't complain.)

Granted, the former has over 5 reviews, but I felt that was first class work and I put tons of research time into it, to make sure the mythologies of both series' universes meshed believably. The latter, part of the lack of response might be because it's centered on manga-verse events. Al doesn't have much fic about him, and that was an idea that nagged at me until it was done. However, the one person I most wrote it for - shiveringjemmy - gave feedback via my LJ. Even if it stays there until the end of time with no reviews, I probably won't care. It did get quite a few hits. Maybe it was read and maybe it wasn't. The world may never know. Or I won't.

I feel like such a pimp but - any of the installments in my Dark!Harry series (Harry Potter) are works I'm proud of. But, yeah, they received decent reviews.
