I don't think there's any one episode or book or anything that inspires me more. People inspire me. (Like you!) Other writers who create the most incredible stories I'd never in a million years think of and readers who leave comments and Kudos and just... fandom in general. People here and on LJ (though less so lately) and Tumblr. I truly do credit fandom and the people I've met through it for the fact that I'm writing and publishing my own stories. I never would have gotten here without the Superman Returns, Smallville, SGA and DC Comics fandoms. Just... never. *tries to hug the whole world*

Oh, good luck on the Yuletide festivities! And even more luck with the traveling. That always kills my writing.

The workshop was incredible and I learned so very much. More than I can process at the moment. I'll be going over my notes again and again. But I'm back (and back to my normal sleep schedule, thank GOD!)and writing again so it's all good. Hope you succeed with the writing time!
