Yay for the start of the meme! I only knew one other person doing this, so I finally get to see someone else answer these questions. :-)
It's so funny how similar your Lotus Children project is to my Dragon Slayer one. I think there's something about that first big writing project that you just take on too much to handle at the time, and you don't realize it until you start writing something else. I don't know about you (maybe it's the case with TPaL), but everything I've written since then has been much simpler and cohesive. Maybe a writer just needs to get that initial explosion out before streamlining.

Or maybe I'm reading too much into it.
