Writing Fic

So I want to write fic. I'd really like to write some SGA fic. I've got a series I've started awhile ago that's about John and Elizabeth's daughter and various other characters' grown children. I'm just not very motivated to write in it even though I really want to be.

Not too many people like OC character fic which I can understand but it's tough when you want to write one. I know I should just write it for myself because it's important to me. It's just difficult when no one or not many people are interested in your fic.

I am always interested in OC fic. To me it is a chance to see our regular characters in a different way. The POV of an OC can be whatever you want and is not limited to what we know about the series characters.

There is the danger of a Mary Sue character, but what you are proposing doesn't sound like that would be happening at all.

I hope you do write it. For your sake and no one else's.

Thanks Pocus, I finally got my muse going today and managed to write something. I have two stories in this universe now.

I find it a little confusing sometimes. I don't know if I really understand Mary Sue most of the time. It seems so many have varying ideas of what it means.
