That does sound like it might be an appropriate libation. (Wonder if it might work for me, too.) Yay for progress though!
I don't know about that, I think everyone has some perspective they can offer with original work, but I agree that the community aspect of fanfic is more fun. I think it's a lot to do with the fact that it's done for the love of the thing rather than anything else. I won't ever give up my original work (I love my characters too much) but I'm finding fic writing is very good for honing my voice and I'm having fun, so win-win.
I just enjoy practicing long division. To each their own :-)
Oooh that sounds very cool! Let us know what you find out!
P.S. I am still beavering away at the last chapter but it might be a little while. My beloved is visiting (it's a distance thing) and we're going on holiday so I might not be able to work as fast as before.
