writing and so forth

[mere_vanilla]

For the first time in what feels like forever, I was able to sit down and write for a (fan)fiction project. While I didn't make internal word count (I consider 100 words in a sitting to be... not necessarily ideal, exactly, but after having a kid it's better than not writing, I'd say), I'm glad I got to get another bare-bones scene set up. I'm happy that I'm trying something new with what I'm writing, even though my writing style isn't completely changing to suit the subject matter (I tend to write gentle vignettes or soft fix-its; this one's an unreliable narrator and angst fic. Yes I know fic is for fun/a hobby, but I like trying new things in what I do for fun).

Has anyone else surprised themselves with their new ideas, or do you know your strengths and play to them?
