I'd get an Alpha if I thought it would help me. I'm just resigned now that on fic going to happen. I don't mean to whine and belly ache, its just I haven't done anything in so long, and its wearing on me.

Maybe I can beta or alpha for someone else.

There is so very, very, very much time left until the May 1 deadline. It's a bit massively early to be deciding you're not getting anything written. Writer's block comes and goes. There's so much time between now and then. Why don't you see if helping someone else out spurs on your inner muse?
