Day Three of Happy--Writing

[kristen999]

In May of 2001, I began posting fan-fiction. Throughout my life writing has been a release and fandom a tremendous joy. According to one archive, I've written 1.5 million words over the last ten years.

Holy my lord.

I find this creative outlet to be extremely cathartic.

As of right now I have an NCIS fic that is nearly complete, an SGA one up to bat, and a H50 story waiting in the wings.

And I am loving every moment of it.

I want to thank those who have have read my work and shared in my joy.

Fandom would be a fulfilling, but solitary experience without you.

Congrats! You and I have been writing fanfic about as long as each other. LOL OMG, that's 10 years!

*iz now curious how many words she's written in the last 10 years*

But thank YOU so much for sharing your talent and your work with us! :D

And congrats!!

1.5 million? That's a lot!! And they are excellent words, too ;-)

May there be another 1.5 million words for your readers to enjoy, no matter the fandom.

*hugs*

Can only hope for ten more but as I only read SGA I'm selfish enough to want that only. Having just re-read Red Sands I'm a buzz with your story telling talent and amazing gift of descriptive writing. I can describe the desert as if I was there and all I did was read your words.

Congratulations and many more years of great stories to come (well, I selfishly want more, more SGA) and lots of other creative success!

Think of all the joy you've given us readers with your wonderful gift! I started writing about the same time, and I still get emails on stories I've written years ago, which makes me smile. I imagine you feel the same.

Meanwhile, keep writing!

Our day three of happy is getting to read all of those 1.5 million words! Thank you for sharing it with us. I get so excited when I know you've got a story coming out (I was strictly an SGA fanfic reader, but I am officially hooked - and squeeing - on H50 now). You've got a tremendous amount of talent and I'm so excited for all of the stories in the middle of being written, about to be written, and hovering in the wings to be written. Yay for great stories told with excellent skill!!

1.5 million words! That is amazing - as are you! Congrats on your milestones in words and years. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your wonderful talent and imagination with us. Your stories are all so well crafted and researched and totally engrossing. You make fandom a special place to be. *hugs*

Congratulations on such a happy milestone. One of the benefits of internet fandom communities is that it provides a place for creative outlets for writers and artists to share the squee. At the same time, it brings a steady supply of stories to even the most voracious of fanfic readers. It's a happy Win-win situation.

Thank-you, too, for your wonderful stories. You have a talent for such gripping and immersive tales. I think I would read whatever you wrote, whether it was my favorite genre or not or whether it was based on a TV show I watched or not. Your stories are just that cool! (The H5O tale I read was so good, that I have decided to access a few episodes.)

I am excited to hear you have more in the works. That also makes me very happy.

*hugs back*

Ditto on the sentiment of fandom being a poorer place without you (and all the other fanfic writers)

To say I am impressed would be putting it mildly
I am encouraged to get mine done. Having posted three prompts since last week, it feels like maybe my muse is moving in the right direction........
:D

Congrats on all the hard work and pleasure that it has brought you over the years.....can't wait to read your NCIS when it's done and the SGA.....
