Drabbles.

[icarus]

I can't think of anything more discouraging than staying till nine o'clock at the office to write a whole series of little sketches... and then hearing a two-syllable response from the person who requested it.

Yes, I've sketched out nine of the other drabbles, but, I dunno. I've totally lost heart for the whole project for the night. This was supposed to build inspiration, not kill it.

I apologize in advance, if I seem to be butting in here....

I personally don't think you're selfish for expecting more than a one-liner from someone, especially if they were the one asking for it. Every time you write (or anyone else does, for that matter) you put a little something of yourself into it, and I find it's extremely rude if they don't at least acknowledge that you spent time crafting something for them (and something good, to boot).

You're perfectly within your rights to have expected more, but sometimes people are ungrateful in fandom... I compare it to someone asking for a home cooked meal, then saying.. "McDonald's would have been better."

Don't be Percy-like.. be yourself.

... but hey, what do I know? *laughs* I tried that, and managed to get an entire sector of fandom to turn against me.

an entire sector?

Actually I'd be kind of impressed if I managed that.

Welcome back! It's good to see you around again. Sorry about that huge mess. You'll find people's memories are short. But it was smart to take a break. This is supposed to be fun.
