Titles are hard. Well, sometimes. I've come up with amazing titles, then changed them because the story wasn't good enough to deserve my awesome title. :P I did a tally a while back on how many of my titles were from a song, too. (Answer: A LOT.)
Usually I write things in one sitting but as most people notice/will notice/have noticed, I do better if I sit on things a lot longer, and take my time with them. However, some of my better pieces? Written within five hours. It makes me sick. Stuff I work hard on just sort of falls apart, probably because I have time to pick at it? I don't know!
Two days for a 'fic that turned out really well is pretty fast IMO. I guess I can just admit I have no patience and so the thought of spending hours working on fanfic (or art) makes me roll around anxiously in my mind. XD
I wish I could do that, though.
(Chaptered fics don't count. I did write one in a single sitting (12 chapters) but the one I'm currently writing? I write each chapter in one sitting, at least. There were some times I wrote 2 or 3 in one sitting if I was on a roll. Man when the muse is bouncing around in my head, I don't turn it off!)
