What's Next?

So, as mentioned, I just finished up a massive fic-writing project.

Massive as in, I started it nearly six years ago and have been working on it off and on, at varying degrees of intensity, ever since.

And massive as in, even posting just the second half of the story took half a year, from mid-December to mid-June, with each chapter still needing its final review & revision (plus sometimes writing and editing whole new sections) before posting. So this story really kept me on my toes, having to race to keep up with my posting schedule even as I was also starting a new job, figuring out lots of real life stuff, making a life in a new/old city, dealing with health stuff, planning large-scale travels, etc.

...And now it's over. And I kind of don't remember how it works when I don't have an ongoing writing/revising project nipping at my heels and keeping me moving forward!

What now? Do I cast about for a new fic project to throw myself into? Do I take this as a chance to venture into the waters of original writing again? Do I instead take it as a chance to finally focus on music and songwriting again and let the fiction writing lie fallow for a bit? Or maybe do I let myself take a break, and not feel I have to have A Project going at all times?? (Ha ha ha, take a break, I don't even know how to do that.)

At any rate, I thought it would be fun to jot down some of the ideas in my head and see if anything pops out. Any thoughts or feedback from you, oh friendslist? Seriously, I would love to bounce ideas back and forth! Maybe you'll even help influence which fandom or characters grab hold of me next. ;-)

Ideas intriguing me under the cut...
