Writing HP fic after a hiatus is like riding a bike after a long time. You'll wobble a bit at first but sonn you'll be flying down the streets like no time had passed at all! (A great metaphor, used by someone who doesn't know how to ride a bike. Irony? xD )
I recently scored the whole HP series on epub, but I can convert them to something you can read directly on your computer if you don't have an e-reader type device. =D Because I want you to write HP again (I've missed your stories soooo much!). (And age is never a factor when it comes to HP! But hey, if it helps, I'm 26 and still EAGERLY play Pokemon games. And write fic with teenaged characters getting it on. ... Maybe I shouldn't admit to these things out loud... *cough*)
I hope you're right. Writing is so central to who I am, that I haven't felt good not doing it. I know that I should probably work on original stuff, but I suppose that will come in time. In the interim, I just have to make myself write again.
And you are so sweet to offer to do that for me! I'll let you know. I love being able to actually hold a book, so I'm going to poke around to see if I can get my hands on the series for cheap. I won't feel right about writing again until I can canon-check!
I'm usually right about things like this. xD Or maybe I'm just a cocky little thing. Aim for small stuff - drabbles - and work from there. Write whatever is going to feel more natural to you. Pour yourself into a pairing you always adored. I dunno, but something will eventually help you breakthrough. =D (And when in doubt, write porn!)
Ah, I understand. I like holding the books better too but since I never have money and I'm on highly questionable terms with the library, I've recently got a free e-reader from my stepmom and have voraciously abusing it (in a good way) ever since. Good luck finding the books! =3
I'm going to try. I'm super rusty, and I don't have the books handy at the moment, but... gosh, reading old stuff got me so wanting to write again. I hope I still have it in me :p I guess expressing intent is the first step, right?
Oh, I want to see Looper too! It sounds such an interesting movie, and it has Joseph Gordon-Levitt AND Bruce Willis on it. Sadly it's not in theatres in Finland yet :(

And oh, Joe & Sarah are just my Looper character obsession of the moment ;) Too bad there's no fic whatsoever yet :p

Sorry to hear about your girlfriend. She shouldn't have taken the books though!
