I'm thinking the motivation thing has become an epidemic. A lot of people seem to be having motivational problems. The SGA story I've been wanting to write forver I'm finally writing... except I want to write something else, and another something else in a totally different fandom *slams face into keyboard*.

Heh, I love those little memes encouraging people to break away from fantasy norms. A few things I can't personally agree with because they're what I love to write (ex. I like guy protaganists and magic, and not even my desire to do what's different will change that). But to the majority it's a big yes, yes, yes and thank you for finally pointing it out!
