Still haven't written a single word (I liked). I hate it and I hate myself.

I just can't seem to introduce this new character...

I should really stop playing Syberia and get back to work, but it seems my muse has gone on vacation and didn't say when she'll be coming back...

Maybe all I need is the right music. Not even watching the show itself helped ( Read more... )

That's awesome wisdom. I'll take that to heart.

15th July? If I could, I would've written it right now! But it feels as if something's stopping me, holding me back, something's not right yet...it doesn't feel right...

Don't you just hate that nagging feeling? What am I missing? I have all the ingredients listed on the grocery list! But it's still not enough! It needs...It needs...

I háve a POV character. That's the problem. It's second-person narration. In the story he's telling another character a story from his perspective, and so it's awkward to have him open himself up too much; for the reader that's great! But for the character he's telling the story too, not so great.

I've got at least six different versions of the chapter I'm writing and they all suck.

Yes, it does feel like I'm taking a break already. That constant nagging feeling there's something I should be doing: writing! Instead of whining about it on livejournal ;) .

But maybe you're right. I need to reconnect with writing first, than the story second, and if I'm lucky it might just click again. That's what I'm looking for. The click.

I thought I had it a while back. Then when it came to actually writing it, it desintegrated.

It's like getting ice-cream and then when you try to eat it, it melts in the sun and falls to the ground.

So the message is: don't try to lick your story! Wait, what?
