Happy Valentine's!

This year I'm in an unusually corny and giddy mood about this celebration... why? I have no idea...

You could think there's something that makes me feel like this, but the blunt truth is that there isn't. I have no boyfriend, I have no plans to go out today and I was awfully stressed today at work... And despite all that, I'm happy!
If someone finds a reasonable explanation about how my brain works, I'd love to know... I've been trying to understand it for the past 19 years... ¬¬

Anyway, I have news about Fan Fiction...
My two WIPs are currently in hiatus (I hate to say that, but it's true...), due, mostly, to the fact that I've been working hard on my two websites (equally hard on both, I swear... um, maybe slightly harder on Priori Incantatem, though) and my new crazy schedule.
Also, I'm going through a major writer's block. I believe it was caused by an "overdose of creative juices", meaning that I have so many freaking ideas boiling up inside me, that it gets too hard to organize them into something coherent and good enough for An Arnold Thing To Do and/or Harry Potter y la Búsqueda.

I may have a solution, though: write one-shots!
Why? I don't actually need a plot to write them, just a little idea that could easily squeeze out of my brain, leaving room for a better organization of its sisters ;)

I really do hope it works, because I'm more than willing to update both fics... they're my babies and I love them!

Anyhoo... in the meantime, I'm ready to let those little ideas flow out from my fingertips and over the keyboard. And I'm craving for something new... unexplored fictional worlds, you know. I'll experiment with 'new' fandoms (at least they're new to me).

I have a personal challenge: write about a few one-shots this week, one per fandom. Now, there's a lot of fandoms I love, but I'm just going to consider 4, maybe 5 for this challenge:

Danny Phantom - why? I like the ghost boy and I have a fair few ideas for pointless fluff, besides a nice idea for a long story, but it could also fit the Jimmy Neutron universe, so I'm still unsure about it.
Artemis Fowl - why? I'm highly obssesed about these books at the moment, but I'll talk about that obsession later. I'm actually halfway through a Valentine's themed one-shot, I'm going to post it tomorrow, I hope (I wanted it up today, but as I said, work was killer and I had no time to do it).
Jimmy Neutron - why? um, actually this is the fandom for which I'm still unsure, should I or shouldn't I write a one-shot about it? I like it, but I'm not fan... so, um, I don't know....
And, of course, the two fandoms for which I've already written stories that people seem to like: Hey Arnold! and Harry Potter.

I don't know if I'll be able to achieve this goal, but I'll try.

Oh, by the way, I used the 'Free Hugs' title because I'm completely supportive of that campaign, specially in days like today, when everybody could use a warm hug :)

Have a happy Valentine's Day!
I'm off...
