I traveled over the weekend and didn't have the time (or the energy) to keep up with the last few days of the Snowflake Challenge, which is a shame; I loved a bunch of their later prompts and I think I'll try making up for at least Day Fifteen's challenge. Maybe tomorrow? It all depends on the amount of homework I'll have to cram, honestly.
On a better note, I think I'll finally have some time tonight to read (I've got two books screaming at me to finish them: Children of the Jedi and IT), and yesterday evening I finished and posted a new ST fic. It's my first completed story this year--by the time I got done with it I didn't know if it was one the better things I'd written or one of the blander things I'd written, and that opinion still stands. But there's a lot I do like about it; it's the first time I've written more than a couple lines of dialogue for Lucas, it's a platonic soulmates AU featuring Steve and the kids, and maybe the prose doesn't sing, but I feel like it reads more or less smoothly...and again, it's finished and it's out there. That's what counts. This month I started, then abandoned, five different stories; I was beginning to worry I'd fallen back into the same rut of never finishing anything and feeling miserable for never finishing anything. However bad or good this fic is, it's a relief to know I can still get stories done.
...And I know I had more to say (or more I planned to say) but all I want to do right now is read, and then sleep.
