New fic writing jitters

[jaina47]

It's always stressful to write fics in a fandom that I'm relatively new to and haven't written for before, especially when I don't have access to the source material anymore. 

No fun at all. This is why I don't write original fiction. Well, one of many reasons.

But how do you feel after you've written that first fic and dipped your toe into a new fandom?

(not having access to the source material sucks)
