Umm, hello. Another update from me. Fingers crossed I might actually get round to posting this one (unlike the previous 3 which all ended up getting scrapped).
I'm sorry that you're feeling this way. It's never easy trying to balance everything. From my own experience when you've got pressure in one area of your life, it's best to cut yourself some slack in other areas. Which means if you don't feel like writing one thing then write something else instead.
Hang in there. Take care of yourself. Let Doubles come when it's ready. It'll be a better story, and that's (hopefully) what we want instead of fast. At least it's true for me.
Does it at all help to know that this complete stranger to you literally just gasped and clapped her hands together in glee because I saw your name on this post? :)
I don't see any crazy here my dear, just a lot of stress and high expectations. Don't worry on our account, we're not going anywhere. Really. Maybe it'd help to just work on a little plot bunny to get the juices going and leave the big stories sit for a while longer? Sometimes it's easier to nibble your way back to something rather than take a whole big giant bite.
I for one will gladly wait for more tennis and more werewolves (OMGSQUEE) whenever you get around to them, if ever. It's all good.
*hugs* Just take care of yourself, and try not to let it all stress you too much. I know it's sometimes hard to remember, but writing is meant to be something we do for fun, and for ourselves. Don't let yourself get panicked by what people want/expect from you - just do the stuff you want to do. If you need to leave Doubles for a bit longer, to give yourself time to unwind a bit, then do. Only idiots would fault you for that.
*hugs* I really hope life settles down for you soon.
Please don't put more pressure on yourself on our account! I dare say the Sherlock fandom has a great deal of patience (what with the long wait for the next season), so don't worry about making us wait a few months - or years. We can take it. (^_
