Talking about Fanfic

So all of a sudden I'm finding myself writing B5 fic again. Trying to finish these pesky WIPs! The problem is, I haven't watched the show since I sort of dropped out of fandom/quit writing fic. I'm constantly googling things or checking the B5 wiki because I don't remember shit. "Thingy Delenn uses to make the Chrysalis" - right, the Triluminary! "When does Delenn get the Triluminary?" And so on.
Basically I'm the worst fan.
It was kind of fun reading through some of my old fic, though. Every now and then I would be like, this isn't half bad! And it's nice to take a break from all my "real" writing on occasion. I don't know how many people are even still on LJ that are still actively in B5 thingies, but at a certain point you have to write for yourself anyway.

Date: 2016-08-21 12:28 am (UTC)I'm actually about three-quarters through with the next Alma Mater chapter (and have been for a few months, haha, maybe this will motivate me to dust it off and finish). I've just been so dreadfully busy lately. Maybe when I get done with one or two projects I currently have on my plate, I'll get back into fic writing in earnest, and/or other fandom-y things.
Ugh, AO3. I tried to use the "port chapters from FFN" thing once and it would not work, and I basically gave up. Maybe some day when I'm really bored at work, I'll give it another go.
So what's been up with you lately?
