New questions to ponder
FrickingKaos:
I've definitely changed since I joined AC as a reader to being a writer now. My tastes have changed and my writing style has changed. I am more open minded now than I was let's say a year or two ago. I've tried so many genres, I feel like I could easily try anything now. I also started reading and writing slash, something that if you'd told me a few years ago I'd be doing, I would probably laugh at you. I think I've grown as a writer as well, judging by what readers have said I've had a lot of improvements.
RokofAges75:
I used to update every day, and now I update every four months or so. But hey, when I do write, the writing is much better than it was back when I started. Quality over quantity, right?
I've also branched out in terms of who and what I write about. I used to only write romantic Brian medical dramas, but eventually I ran out of ailments, and then he got married, and I ran out of ways to get rid of Leighanne, so I started writing more about the other boys. It got harder to write romance once they all started getting married, so I started experimenting with AU and other genres. At this point, I think I've at least tried every genre. I still love drama the best, but I've found that I also really enjoy writing horror and parodies involving pandaskunks.

Mare, I'm so sorry to hear that you may have MS and have had a rough time recently. Hopefully you'll not be suffering those symptoms too much and it'll improve.
Tracy, that hospital bill must've been a shock! Hope you're better now.
I'm a bad fan, I've not even listened to Nick's new CD yet as all my download sites have been blocked by my internet provider :(
Something good which happened for me this year was that I got married. Nothing bad has happened to me directly, but Tim has been told that his heart hasn't improved since he was first ill and it won't get any better. He may need a transplant one day, but at the moment he's not bad enough. Also my sister's health seems to have got worse and now her brain tumour is causing eye problems with her eye turning out all the time and making her dizzy.
As for writing, I've done nothing for so long. But I treated myself to a new laptop with Christmas money, so now I have to get back into both writing and reading :)
Rose:
So I just saw this. My computer died so I haven't been on much except through my phone. Mare, I'm so sorry. I'll echo Steph on this and keep you in my thoughts with hopes it'll get better for you.
mare:
Thanks to the both of you. I've been resting a lot this break which has been helping. Today is the first day in almost a week that I've been in a fair amount of pain.
Steph, I'm sorry to hear that Tim's condition isn't improving. That has to be scary. I'm also very sorry about your sister. Being sick sucks!
