I legitimately cannot believe it took me this long to figure this out.

I AM WRITING THE SAME DAMN STORY IN TWO COMPLETELY UNRELATED FANDOMS. *facepalm* (And perhaps more relevantly, I was trying to figure out how to make an original out of it before I figured out that I had already written it TWICE.)

Well, I guess they do say that every writer tells the same story over and over again, it's just how they tell it that's different. Still. I can't believe that these stories have been done/in progress/in limbo for four-almost-five years and it took me this long to figure it out. I knew I had themes carried over from SW to Narnia; a lot of my families have similar themes. I JUST DIDN'T REALIZE I WROTE THE SAME DAMN STORY. (For varying definitions of "the same"; theme and set-up, I think.)

Not that anyone else cares or possibly can tell. Just me over here, flipping out a little over how oblivious I am! Not that Dust and What is Lost are probably actually that similar outside my own head.

*headtilt* Okay, so what is this story I'm trying to tell over and over again?

One year I kept writing stories where people went for dim sum.

Last school year it was all about my parental issues. Less in my fic and more in my original stuff with aella_irene, though, so it might not have been as obvious.

...I did not notice that. This will make things even more interesting in rewrites.

I think it was mostly in the e-mail stuff and less in the Novel, so we're probably safe.
