I'm not done writing HP. I'm just in a sort of burned out phase, and it feels like a deeper sort of burn out then the last three.
Sort of, oh, the stories coming to mind don't have a lot of meat to them. I don't wanna write crap just to keep writing HP.
I mean, I don't have to write well, that's something for the 10th draft, but there has to be something compelling at the core of each story. It's not there right now, not in HP stories. It could be I'm just tired, or it could be that I need more canon to chew. But that 'core' feeling, like I have something to say, it's there in SG-1.
Perhaps need to do the occasional HP story, but wait for new HP canon. Or maybe I just need to give myself time to recover; read a while.
