Fannish Goodness

przedAfter fighting wicked writer's block and general fannish ennui for the last few months, I've finally had a rather good week when it comes to fannish endeavours. I have:
1. Started and finished a new TT story. And not just finished it, but finished it well. It's one of the few times that I've felt the story does exactly what I wanted it to do, though it did take a couple of runs at a key scene to get it there. (Thanks![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
draycevixen for noting the "loss of voice" square on my ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
hc_bingo card. It was apparently just the prompt I needed.)
2. Started a new Pros vid with an eye to finishing it in time for BistoCon. I'm currently in the Clip Organizing Death March portion of the creative process, but it's definitely satisfying to be vidding again. And especially satisfying to be vidding the lads. It's made me remember how much I love them all over again.
3. Started to consider going to SHareCon. I hadn't even considered it because I didn't think it was fair to the Sweetie to take off on him for three cons this year. But he was poking around on my LJ (he does that occasionally) and noticed I'd mentioned I wasn't going to the con, he said "why not?" So I've started pricing flights to Baltimore.
Also, looking at footage of Doyle and considering my very favourite picture of Mark Owen has set me wondering if perhaps my affection for Mark isn't quite the anomaly I thought it was.
Hmmmm.

Date: 2014-07-07 01:35 am (UTC)I'd seen Benedict in a few smaller roles, in Amazing Grace and Starter for 10, and had marked him as someone interesting to watch, and fell for his Sherlock immediately. Though I've held out against the fanfic. I've got too little time to get involved with such a mega-fandom.
Your experience sounds more like my Sweetie's. He's taken a violent dislike to Benedict, has refused to watch Sherlock until recently, and then didn't like it, and is adamant that everyone else in Tinker Tailor was much better. (Well, I have to agree with him and you on that last point. I mean, look at who he's acting against! You can not be as good as Gary Oldman and still be a damn fine actor. *g*)
