*blush* I don't think of myself as insightful, just obsessed with naval-gazing. ;)
I'm currently trying my hand at writing original fiction and it's been an interesting shift. I think letting go of the need for feedback (which I'm still working on) is important. With "real" publications you don't get that. I think if I were still in VigOrli and getting lots of fb, I probably never would have been willing to try it. (If you're interested, my nothing-there-yet LJ for origfic is alix_bekins.)
Teasing can be very hurtful, even when you know it's not intended as such. I hope the people who are doing it will lay off you now. *hug*
