Ohla!
So it's been more than a year since I updated this journal, even though I have been going on occassionally to view some journal entries and to join a few communities. I actually spent the last half hour switching back from paid to free account, mostly because I didn't want the ad on my page, but couldn't give up the larger repertoire of icons. Ho-hum. The new layout is from paintedlayouts and they probably have the most gorge layouts that I've found to date. I love the one I have currently, the only thing being that the sidebar is kinda screwy in Internet Explorer. Oh well, can't be bothered.
Anyway, lately I've been trying to my groove on back into writing. Safe to say, it's not working, and I think I might've lost my drive to write /entirely/. It fucking sucks, but it is what it is. I can't even muster up the energy to write a one-shot, mostly because everytime I think of a story it ends up playing out longer than I want. Brainstorming is /hard/.
(You know you've reached an all-time level of laziness if you can't even get yourself to work your brain properly. I fear me.)
Went back in time and read some of my earlier entries, the ones with my blurbs about Brynn and Dru mostly. I'm actually impressed with some of the prose I have in there, at least for the last one, and Brynn and Dru have been revisiting my mind a lot more lately. Not even going to play with the thought of trying to write them again though, because that ship has sailed. The appeal of fanfiction has is completely lost on me now, and I'm trying to mature in my writing anyway. I've been dabbling a bit on the SKoW site, and I think maybe next year I'll app to become part of the staff (not a judge though, oh my God that would eat my time entirely). First I'll try and get my ass into writing-gear though, if I can.
Inspiration, please, hit me. I don't know what else to do.
