Part of my problem is that, with fanfic, I don't feel as constrained to get everything right. I mean, I still get lost in tab upon tab of wiki pages researching minutia for fic. Working on original stories I get overwhelmed by details, because I feel like I have to get them right. Then I get frustrated.
I probably will write the story I was going to eventually, just not for NaNo. My head is too all over the place lately to try and do that.
It's frustrating. It is an awesome MUD. I haven't played it much, but I can already tell that (and finding one with the kind of contemporary fantasy setting I love isn't easy, so that alone makes it special). The problem is that it's run by the same admin who ran the other contemporary fantasy based MUD that devoured my life years ago (BuffyMUD), leading to a whole lot of drama.
I'm hoping that he's matured since then. I'm not optimistic, though. From what I've heard from the friends of mine that still played there before HavenMUD opened, it was a lot of the Same Old Shit. Which was really drama, stupidity, and Tyr (the admin) being a control freak.
