Roadblock
After pounding out over 8,000 words of my SS/HG Exchange fic during the half term holidays, I've now hit the wall.
This terrible job, which I mentioned before, takes up ridiculous amounts of my time. I'm up at 5am every day and usually not home until after 6 pm - and those are the good days.
Yesterday I didn't get home until half eight, and tonight until half nine.
13-to-16-hour days aren't really conducive to the muse. In fact, the muse has gone into hibernation, flipping me the bird from beneath the blankets of my soul.
Fortunately, when I realised a couple of weeks ago how miserable this bloody job would be, I gave notice. My last day is next Thursday, thank the Lord Almighty. Don't have another job lined up yet, but the bank account is nicely fattened by this month's paycheck, so we should be okay for a couple of weeks.
Meanwhile, I'm casting round for inspiration. Anybody got any suggestions to get the writing U-bend unblocked?
