Poll-yah!

Note: I was reviewing some old posts about the craft and remembered that I had had some really fun ones in another fandom so I went over there and collected some, and will post a few here. Those who know me know this, but for those who don't: You can say anything in my LJ. If it's offensive you won't get a pass on it, but I censor no one, I ban no one, and I'm not afraid of being corrected or disagreed with. This is unlikely to come up in regard to these writing questions; just makin' the point.

Here's the thing. I re-read my own stuff and I like it, but I don't love it. I wouldn't place me in a list of my favorite writers, or more accurately, in a list of the best fandom writers. So ...

I write so slowly and so painfully (in a foreign language, that doesn't help) that I must be satisfied with the result. As a rule, I am not when I post the text (though not knowing how I could improve it) but months or years later, I'm usually pleasantly surprised: I have the "Oh, that's not bad!; really is it me who has written those lines?" sort of reaction. However I cannot say I positively love the best I have produced; I just like it, more or less.
