well, you do produce a hell of a lot of fic so it makes sense you don’t remember it all. i’ve got one or two fics that i remember really well but that’s because they’re close to my heart. half the time I don’t remember what I wrote the day before
@rosemoonweaver Thank God, I really thought I was losing my memory. It was so sharp when I was a teenager. I started to realize it when I got asked for a sequel to my Tanner fic – I couldn’t remember anything more than the piercing and who bottomed, despite remembering having done a ton of research for the fic itself, and it really hit me when I was talking to a friend last night about my Rare Ship from this month, the Dean/Ketch – it was only published a week or so ago and aside from the general vague – treasure hunters aztec gold thing – I could not remember details.
I feel ya. I kind of blame my mental illness for my lack of memory power but it could also be part of getting older and having more important things to remember.
When I was writing my DCJ bang I kept forgetting details like whether Cas or Jimmy initiated their relationship and how old Claire was. And now that Under the Surface is posted and finished I keep getting comments like ”I loved this conversation” or “Oh no, Alistair!” and I’m like …..I wrote that? When did I write that? Huh. Good job me.
And I probably couldn’t tell you how many pairings/polyships I’ve written or who was involved without looking at my ao3.
