If memory serves me well, the Chinese person who contacted me introduced herself as Searchana - or something like that. Must look for that email - I still have it somewhere in the bottomless depths of my Yahoo mailbox.;)
Don't see how trying to write a longer fic would make me a better person - especially if I've been trying to do that for most of my life and never yet succeeded... LOL. Yep, I dreamt of writing a "novel" since I was a kid - always scribbling something in my secret little notebooks, then giving up after 3-5 pages and starting all over again. And so on, and so forth. The only longer thing I actually managed was a 17-chapter POEM (or a story in verse, if you like) of an extremely romantic nature.;) Pity it's in Polish, or I would share it just for kicks.;) It's unbelievably cheesy.:D And of course all the romance in it is het, since back then I didn't know any better (not exactly an overload of information on alternative lifestyles in Eastern Europe in the eighties :/).
Anyway... sorry for the ramble, and wish me luck indeed.;) I have THREE different fics started right now, btw - and not the vaguest idea when I might actually finish any of them (if ever). That's the way to go, no? *smirks*
