So I feel like I should post to explain where the stories have gone...

Problem is, I don't know!

I mean, I could explain how I *am* writing behind the scenes, but it's original stories that will be available if you want to, you know, *pay* for them, which isn't really what the fandom community signs on for.

Or I could explain how my fandom interest is splintered now, and the people reading my fic are fewer and farther between, thus resulting in less feedback and therefore less excitement on my part, but that sounds like a complaint and I don't mean it as one.

Or I could shrug and go view more LOLcats or Fail Blog, which has been eating up more and more of my time.

This is less of a slump and more of a grand canyon.

Beta blockers knock down muses? I'm ficless in fandom too. I'm interested in the beta blocker theory. Tell me more, please. Though mostly, the shows and the characters seem so far away and long ago now. I think that's probably what it's about for me. Moping in a mild, nostalgic way.

Probably/possibly just for me; I have a wide assortment of dysfluencies which are made better by ADHD meds and worse by beta blockers; there's a long and boring explanation which comes down to the way I used anxxiety as a made for coping with ADHD and language disorders.

Julia, they do, however, mess with alertness and responsiveness in everyone

I'll have to look into this more. I certainly could do with more alertness ;-) I get dizzy a lot, always feel off balance. I try to stay away from steep precipices.
