DAMN YOU TEF CH10

WHY WON'T YOU JUST WRITE YOURSELF ALREADY YOU LITTLE FUCKER

I am taking time out of my busy day to avoid my busy-ness and update lj. Christmas cards? Fuck 'em! They're already late anyway! NYERGH. I am having some crazy mood swings right now, which I'm going to blame on the holidays. Damn you to hell, holidays. DAMN YOU.

I am just filled with some weird creative frustration right now. Not that I have writer's block right now or anything - it's like the complete opposite. I just can't write fast enough, and there's not enough time in the day, and there's too much to do, and I have so much, so much (!!!) that I need to get out! My hands don't work fast enough! My brain doesn't even work fast enough! Damn you, brain! Damn you, hands! Ergh, stupid body!

Okay, enough of that garbage. In all seriousness, ch10 is actually not being the bitch that ch9 was. I just can't write it fast enough. The small amount of morning time I allow myself to write just flies by. I don't know where it goes. There is SO MUCH and not enough time! Blargh! *FLAILS*

I want drama. I want a narrative. I want characters to burst off the page. I need to MAKE SOME TIME HAPPEN and get this stuff out before I explode.

Man I want to write Reds. I want to write Reds so bad.

*Sigh* At least you can write. I'm stuck on one of my chapters with no idea how to write it. I know exactly what I want to write, but I don't have the words to do it. This is the first time three months that I have a chance to update the story as well as write and I have no clue what word to put down first.

And, of course, the holidays are interfering with my creative juices *Shakes fist* DAMN YOU, HOLIDAYS!

Anyway, good luck on writing chapter ten.

Ugh, my sympathies. That really sucks. For all that I'm bitching, I have to admit that writer's block sucks way more.

You can totally do it though! If nothing else, just start writing random shit and see what sticks. Like not even complete sentences. Just as a warm-up.

I have nothing to add on holidays except YES DAMN YOU.

Thanks very much. I hope I'm able to finish the chapter by next year, though I'm contemplating skipping ahead a couple of chapters what with all the holiday spirit and whatnot... holy crap, I can't believe it's almost been a year already.

Godspeed!

It has been the opposite for me. I've been staring at a damn blank word document for the last 3 days, switching back and forth between said blank document and the thousand+ word outline of said one-shot. It's all there, beginning, middle, and end. My fingers are on the keyboard, I have drinks and snacks within my reach, I'm all primed and ready to write!

Then my brain decides to go "A hurr durr, derp derp derp, nope, not writing anything todaaaaaay eitheeeeeeeeeeeeeer~"

And it's supposed to be a Christmas gift to a friend OGADWRYYYYYYYYYY
