*glomps* OMG I had no idea :(((( I'm glad you're doing better. *HUGS*
Fanfic - I know exactly what you mean!!! It's part of why that whole Torchwood CYOA hasn't really moved /o\ I'm just not feeling it - it's SO HARD to write in Torchwood and BSG and the Adam fandom - and yet I have things to write in two out of the three of them and it's like pulling teeth :( So I totally get what you're saying.
Good luck on your original stuff!!! I can't wait to read it :D
***HUGS*** Thanks, I'm glad I'm feeling better, too. I scared myself more than a little bit this summer.
I still read fic, although not much Torchwood anymore, but I just can't write it. I'll get an idea for a story and start to write it but then I'll find myself thinking 'what's the point?' Tosh, Owen & Ianto are dead. Amy and Rory are stuck in the past and slowly living out their lives. Arthur is dead and Merlin is off doing whatever. Any new fandoms that I've picked up I just can't get into shipping any of the show pairings. And the only one I can get into (Supernatural), the only pairing I really like has to be RPF because I can't stand Wincest LOL Oh well, at least my original stuff is still slash :)
I mostly don't read Torchwood because none of my favorite writers are writing it anymore LOL. Yeah the whole COE massively killed any muse I have for Torchwood, the only two things I've written since were crack pieces kind of like Wreck-It-Ralph for fandom? LOL.
Ahhh yeah, Wincest - I can't get behind that pairing but to each their own you know? LOL.
YAY for original and here's hoping you eventually find a new fandom.
LOL yeah, the Wincest is just ewww....but I really like Jared/Jensen AU RPF (mainly where they aren't the Supernatural actors Jared & Jensen, just random guys - or werewolves.)
(((HUGS))) Glad to read you are on the right road. I can understand your views on fanfiction. I mostly read Supernatural now and a spot of Sherlock (only one writer) Hope you get a lot of satisfaction from your original stuff!
I've been mainly reading Supernatural fanfic also - but only Jared/Jensen RPF (where they aren't actors on Supernatural). I tried reading Dean/Cas but it just doesn't grab my attention.
Hey. Wow, that's not good but at least you've got yourself into a better state of mind now.
I totally get the fanfic thing. I still have stories I never finished (some I never even started, nothing more than handwritten notes) but I don't think I'll ever get back to them. I still love my slash pairings but the desire to write about them has ebbed. I still read ff, not TW so much. There are still Merlin stories out there I want to read but most of them are Modern AUs. My ff of choice atm is Derek/Stiles from Teenwolf (and I've never seen the show. Someone who shall remain nameless is to blame *glances upward at thrace*).
huge hugs for you.....I can so understand where you are at and where you have been... for me it was 4 years ago , am going brilliantly now, but I found reading was so hard, let alone writing ( I write poetry) sending warm thoughts to you from downunder

About me, some thing could be better, but a lot of thing could be much worse, so I'm happy with what I have.
Take care of yourself.
