vague early-morning thoughts.

1. I've been having this issue when writing femslash recently: so much meta and such has passed my eyeballs I have the distinct worry that I'm fetishizing someone else's sexuality, and it's... making it difficult to finish things. (short things, like the Kara/Dee bit, don't require as much thought, but longer things? Oh yeah.)

A part of me wants to whine about this wrecking my ability to just produce femslash at the drop of a hat.

(ok, a large part of me; I hate second-guessing myself and not being able to write what I want to because I'm not a lesbian/haven't had the experience of coming out/don't know what it's like, and yes, I am whining right now. And frustrated.)

2. My feet are cold.

3. I am going to attempt to stay offline again, though I'm not taking Parker with me since lunch is only a half hour. The upside is that I'll be off an hour early.

4. Pants with no pockets suck.

5. Also? I'm really tired of writing het porn. Like. I think I've written so many orgasms that at this point I can repeat myself verbatim. Maybe it's time to start fading to black.

1). I...don't think it's wrong in itself, but rather how it's done. And I would attempt to expand on that, but I'm sort of not very articulate right now.

2). I WISH MY FEET WERE COLD!

5). Fading to black can work, but it really depends on the story? And, you know, I'm the sort of person who often skips over the porn to get to the plot (yeah, I'm dull like that.) And as such? I still read all your smutty bits because I never feel like they're just porn, and they do have character bits in them? IDK, it's hard to put in words. But...I don't feel like it's all generic.

1. It is ok. I have talked myself out and moved on, for the moment.

2. NO, YOU DON'T.

5. HAH. That is because they never stop talking! Or thinking or feeling or doing things that have me flailing and wishing they'd stop!
