I haven't been on LJ in ages. Near the end of 2016 I hurt my arms. A bit of tendonitis and a bit of carpal tunnel. I'm still not completely recovered and I don't think I ever will be. Since then, I've been less and less involved online. It started because I couldn't and then turned into I really just don't want to be on any sort of social media thing.
It was only last year that I really started writing again. I finished my first rough draft in three years. And then I did NaNoWriMo while super depressed and with my arms the way they are now and honestly I'm so impressed and proud of this accomplishment. All the writing has been fanfic though. Original stuff still seems a long way off. If ever. I sometimes wonder if it's because my dad was hospitalized and died while I was working on one of my favorite original things ever.
The first rough draft that I finished was Wesley/Riker. It felt super appropriate. This year my focus is definitely on them. Anyone remember Forbidden Love? That's my huge Wesley/Riker project that is not finished. I'm working on it for Camp NaNoWriMo now. And for the next one. And I think in November too. I hope to work on them a lot more than that this year but I doubt I'll actually finish it. I'm going to try and get as much done as I can though.
