Yeah, creativity can be a good and fairly constructive diversion for misery. I actually think it helped me a lot at that time. Viktor/Hermione was just the perfect pairing for me at that moment, too. I always struggled to keep Krycek mean enough, and it was a relief to be able to write something more gentle and in a fandom that's probably more of a natural fit to me as a writer.
Muridae is still around, yes. Work and other RL stuff pretty much swallowed her whole for a while, but she still comments regularly when I post. And she's been lovely enough to step up and do beta every time I emailed about a new fic, though that's beginning to be a while ago, now.
