Random thoughts on Highlander and writing.

[profile] sierraphoenix you are truly inspirational. I really appreciated everyone who contributed to that discussion about Dean's immortality and Sammy with Sarah. I literally wrote the next story in the series in 30 minutes. It was one of those sit up in bed grab the paper and write before its gone moments. I will still have to edit it but wow it was a real Eureka moment. I don't think I ever written anything that fast. I just hope it looks as good in the morning as it felt writing it down.

So, anyone else out there ever have inspiration for a story or artistic work hit so fast it made you head spin. Just curious. What did it feel like for you?

The thing I love about fic that takes work is that in figuring out how to fix it, you learn. And then the next thing you write, you know so much more.

Yep. :) It is a pretty good feeling to notice those things you learn as you improve.

Ooh very good point. It is a learning experience for sure. I find straight fandom stories to be tougher than crossovers. I don't know why. But by the time I finish my current one, I am betting I won't be afraid to try again.
