Recurring writing themes + MJ-related indecision

[luzula]

I thought I'd do the meme about recurring themes in my writing. I found this one hard to answer, but keerawa gave me one answer: she thought my writing was about "the web of relationships among and between people. Romance, family, friendship." And I think that's pretty accurate. Of course, I mostly write F/K slash, but I'm also interested in parent child relationships, sibling relationships (I have a WIP with a lot of Fraser-Maggie interaction), and the boundary between friendship and romance. I also have a WIP that focuses on Fraser and Thatcher's professional relationship.

I'm also interested in how people change over time. What they were like when they were young, and what they'll be like when they're old. And when I say they, I basically mean Fraser. I really am very Fraser-centric. I've written almost nothing that doesn't in some way include Fraser or his family, and I mostly write Fraser POV.

I'm also very interested in nature, how people relate to it, and how it relates to the concept of home. Besides having a lot of landscape description in my stories, I don't think it's a coincidence that I've written both wingfic and werewolf fic.

Of course, this all sounds very serious--I also like writing PWP. Anyway, on to the second part of this post.

It's time to sign up for muskratjamboree soon, and I'm trying to decide whether to go. Is anyone I know going? Are large cons scary?

What makes this decision harder is that I'm also trying to decide whether to go dogsledding this year again (hey, it's addictive). The tour I'm interested in is the one where you camp out instead of staying in cabins, but it ends on April 1 and MJ starts on April 3. There would theoretically be time to do both, but it'd be tight--I'd get home on the first and fly out on the second. Arrgh, indecision. OTOH, it is a win-win situation, right? Both of these things are fun.
