On Resurrecting Resurrection

[amari_z]

Well, as a few of you have noticed, there's been no fic from me in over a year. I didn’t have the time, and then didn't seem to have the inclination. I literally have not written anything since March 2009. (For fun that is. I probably wrote over a thousand pages for work last year, which may have been a lot of the problem.)

I am thinking about the fic a little again. To find out if I can re-gleeify myself for it, I've gone back and started rereading this week (and man, is it long—I’m barely a quarter way through). But I guess the question I’m wondering about is, is it worth the effort? I'm a little OCD about finishing tasks I've set myself, but that's not a good enough reason to devote as much time and effort as this fic requires. Are you guys seriously still interested in this thing? I'm not looking for head patting here (or maybe I am a little), but genuine input. Fandoms are a fickle thing and people move on. As much as the act of writing has to be for my own enjoyment, I'd be lying if I said it didn't matter if anyone was interested and reading.

(Keep in mind, though, even if I do get myself to reengage on the fic, it will be awhile before I produce anything, given the novella length of the chapters and the ever-exciting vagrancies of work. And I'd have a lot of reading to do first.)

Hi, I'm new to this fandom but I wanted to let you know that people are still reading Resurrection even after all this time. I read it all in one go last night and I think it's one of the finest pieces of writing I've come across recently. I love the way you've designed the different layers in the plot, and the characterisation is brilliant. I would love to find out how you had planned to bring all the threads together at the end, but even if you decide not to continue writing it, I'm grateful for all the happy hours of reading that you've given me. :) Thank you for being such a great writer!
