On posting and fanworks

[dragonimp]

Kinda feel I should say more about some of my recent posts. The last couple weeks have been kinda rough for me, emotionally. No real reason except for the upcoming starts of the semester, and while I do always get down around the end of vacation/start of the semester, it shouldn't be bothering me quite this much. Hell, I almost wish I was PMSing, because at least then I'd know why and I'd also know it was finite. But no, I can't actually blame this on hormones.

Anyway, with regards to fanworks, posting of any kind tends to get tied up with emotions, and posting creative works - either writing or art - often ends up as a huge emotional tangle. Even if I never get a negative comment - and I never have on these boards, they're almost polite to a fault - I still end up worked up to some degree. I simply was not in a good headspace to deal with that the last few weeks - for the last month, really. I should have realized this and held off on posting, but waiting is also something I've never been great at.

But for better or for worse, I did post. I can't take them back now and I'm not sure I would want to, anyway.

I've heard this is a slow hiring time for a lot of places - still a bummer, though, I'm sure.

It's also just kinda that time of year.
