Oooops!!!
Lack of updates. Again.
I just have fallen off the wagon with so much online stuff. And when you do that, it can be hard to get back on track with it all. It's not specific to writing, its more a general creative block. It is a complete headache, because blocks are so hard to get over. The same thing keeps happening all the time. When I can't get my brain to work, I panic, and nothing gets done, and I get even less motivated to try and do something. Honestly, it makes me feel like crap. Useless crap.
But in times of 'blocks', I am trying to push on forward. Write down writing and drawing ideas, and try to build up a list of things I want to do or say. That way, when I do draw a blank, I have things to work on. I have been bad at saying stuff like this before, but if I talk about it, there is more chance of it actually being followed through on. There is still a high chance that nothing will be done, but I am trying. And the jokes about trying patience can stop, though they may have simply been in my head.
I am kind of stressing out right now, because I have given myself the task of trying to right a balanced blog about the Scottish Independence debate. Something that is stressing me out, to the max. Because the main sites (Better Together and Yes Scotland) don't tend to have a lot of fact checking on their sites, just a lot of posturing. But I am going to persevere. I was in a discussion about the debate yesterday, and mentioned about trying to write a serious of blogs about various topics. People seemed intrested in seeing it. And then one of the reporters for STV news said he'd like to see it. A proper journalist reading my crap. That was an unforseen twist.
