Writing the Ficathon Assignment

[riverfox]

What with the working on my website, dealing with RL crap, and this unbelievably annoying SNAFU characteristic in my personality (aka, depression & shit), I'm fighting with the muse. Bitch has gone and walked out on me.

Do you have a prompt you're working from? Just posted my first fic in forever on the SGfriendship ficathon and thank god for a prompt and even then it was hard work.

Write like no-one's reading!!! (They will be, but you can blank that bit out).

It's scary, that blinking cursor and blank page. But you'll get there. I have full confidence. :-))

Thanks, hun. *hugs* I only just "got" my "new" outline last night as I went to sleep. *eyeroll* But hey, it's an outline. :) What sort of clinched it for me was the thought that the due date is close to Halloween. So, er, theme timing. ;)

Oh dear! I do wish I was at home so we could have a brainstorming chat. I know I can't advise you, but sometimes I say something stupid that sets you off in the right direction.

However, you'll do it. I have faith.

Have faith, the words will come, believe in yourself, write it for yourself, and I promise we will love it x

*hugs* Thanks, sweetie. I'll get it done, I know. But in the meantime, I'm gonna bitch and moan, which is the writer's mantra. :D

[riverfox]

Thanks! It's starting to come together. In my head, anyway. ;)
