If there's one major disadvantage to being as slow a fic writer as I am, it's that you run the risk of being scooped (perfectly legitimately of course) by other fics. I've just gone through and scuttled a number of plot elements in my notes because what's been posted this past week turned out to be a bit too similar, and I haven't even read all the new stuff. What's left of my fic looks a bit gutted, as the entire middle third is now kaput.

Don't get me wrong, I'm delighted the fandom is taking off; I just wish the hamsters powering the wheels in my brain ran a little faster :-)
