Subject: To answer your question about straddling fandoms, here's my take (even if I only just started in a new fandom with a mere two stories under my belt): I am not having a difficult time with switching between shows. It's like the characters have their own places in my head that don't mix. Here live Castle and Beckett, and over there live Mac and Harm. They don't mingle. If a story idea comes to my mind for Castle, it usually isn't one that would fit for JAG at all. (inside)

I haven't written for JAG in a while, but that's more so because I am less involved in it - I can't watch it right now (no DVDs and it's not on tv right now either), and so there is less inspiration. With Castle there are current, new episodes and 'unfinished' characters and storylines so I find myself more inspired. However, I still have Harm and Mac ideas in my head, as well as unfinished projects, and I am aiming to go back at some point, whenever inspiration strikes. Which I think will happen once I have the DVD set and will rewatch the entire series.

[> [> [> Off the top of my head, apart from you obvs, one of my favorite JAG ff writers, Pixie, writes Bones fanfiction and I was beyond elated to discover her writing there, but unfortunately, I've moved on from the Bones fandom into Castle now...*wink, wink, nudge, nudge* do write a few multi-chapter fics for Castle, please? Thanks for answering the question - I guess that's how I operate as a reader too - and the paucity of new episodes is definitely a big drawback sometimes. I like seeing the characters (and the fandom) grow through the seasons. It just feels very satisfying. -- Shelly, 20:37:14 11/17/11 Thu [1]

[> [> [> [> True, Pixie has been writing across fandoms for a while. I don't read Bones fanfic though. But yeah would love to do a multi-chapter Castle piece. However, I am better at writing than at coming up with plots. You can throw some plot bunnies my way if you have any ideas and I can see what I can do. ;-) -- Colie, 21:26:59 11/17/11 Thu [1]
