I'M HAVING A LARGE CRISIS

Jun 26, 2012 21:12

This is about my Merlin big bang ...

I'm up to 12k which I know isn't anywhere near enough for any kind of rough draft but I was attacked yesterday out of nowhere by 'OH MY GOD I'M A TERRIBLE WRITER NO SERIOUSLY I SUCK WHY AM I EVEN TRYING' and I just need ... a few distant, platonic (I don't really like people touching me) pats on the back and a ( Read more... )

*non-touchy pats on back*
Girl, you can do it! I love your stuff I've read - remember how much I love the cat fic and the Playboy fic? They're awesome! I still love those. So I know whatever you're working on will be great and hot and your betas and artist will be inspired :D
Just keep going and you'll get there and it'll be super.
(why can't I leave a cute icon on here? ;p)

I know those crises way too well. /o\ But you're awesome, and you and your writing do not suck at all, and I'm cheering for you! *\o/* You can do itttttt! ******\o/******

Thank youuuu bb I know you get my writing-damage <3 <3

*PLATONIC PATS*

First off, I won't be finished with my rough draft any time soon either, so I know where you're coming from. Secondly, do you at least have an outline of what you have left to write? Has your cheerleader been helping you or do you not have one?

I have a cheerleader but our contact is sporadic. I've been bugging my betas and my artist who are awesome and have WELLS of patience for me - lol :-)

I have about ... oh god, 18k left to write to make the 30k word count /o\

fuckyeah June 26 2012, 10:45:29 UTC

You still have time, don't worry! I already contacted Muppet to let her know I wouldn't have a full draft, so maybe you should do the same?

janesgravity June 26 2012, 10:50:47 UTC

That's a good idea, I hadn't thought of that - thanks!

*gives you a cute puppy to hug*

Your writing does not suck and you can make the word count! Maybe not by the draft deadline, but by posting? DEFINITELY. I have faith in you!

janesgravity June 26 2012, 20:21:34 UTC

PUPPEH!!!

*deep breath* I'm pretty sure I can do it by posting.

*OHMMMMMMMM*

Thank youuuuuuu <3

Oh darling don't panic! Everyone has these attacks before posting, it's a normal reaction and it's normal for you to feel that way - but in the end it's always, always worth it! Your work will be fabulous, I have faith in you! I just know you'll be splendid, trust me ♥

I'm trying not to. This week has been a bit overwhelming too - work is busy, my son is sick ...

Thank you, lovely, that means a lot <3

epistolic June 29 2012, 04:37:36 UTC

Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear that your week has been terrifying :( That's always how it is, isn't it? When shit piles on, it always piles on all at once.

I hope your son is better now? ♥

janesgravity June 29 2012, 05:28:56 UTC

It really is the way /o\

He's got a pretty bad cold which almost always means an ear infection, so he's off his food and pretty miserable. I finaly persuaded him to get some sleep so I'm hoping that will help.
