*snort* Well, maybe you could consider it motivation. If you're working on your disertation, it's motivation to work faster so you can move on to fic-writing. If you're already working on fic.. well, I suppose it would depend on what kind of fic. And even if it's not a certain kind, it might become that kind, with that picture in the background, funny hat and all.
Oh, it is motivation. I've had yet another novel idea brewing in my head for the past month since I watched Elizabeth before starting the trip, then I got inspired in an art gallery and it's all been downhill from there. I'm going through 3 different Tudor books at the moment (I do that; people who ask me what I'm reading at the moment are always perplexed by the long listing they receive) on my breaks. It started out as that kind of fic, but now it's... shifting. That's still there, it's a big part of it, but getting more caught up in all the intrigues, which you have to do in the Tudor period.
Well, well! That's certainly all very intriguing, though I feel compelled to check on the original scifi story. That's coming along, right? I'd be sad if it fell by the wayside for Tudor fic.
Mmm. Well... The thing is... You know how sometimes you get this great beginning and suddenly your inspiration dries up? That sort of happened. And I've just never been into space scifi. That didn't help. That fizzled before this novel, though. I just couldn't think about anywhere interesting for it to go. Sorry. Maybe I'll release what I have as a one-shot. I don't know. It's not really a oneshot.
