Generic Writing Whine

[sythyry]

Still haven't gotten to write any more of Wrath of Trees.   I don't seem to have much usable free time this month.  After Rhys' bedtime doesn't seem to be very usable; I'm usually pretty fried, and caffeine at that hour is not a very good idea for me anymore.  I've been trying to write in lunchtimes at work, but  I don't have enough time to finish a section, and  the stuff I've written at lunchtimes has generally been crap.

I'm tempted to run off and build a Generic Creative Whine Generator form, because yours isn't truly generic.

I suggest sticking with the lunchtime sessions, maybe with a bit of warmup by committing yourself to writing anything even the knowledge that it'll be junk. I and probably a lot of other people would love to see random bits of slice-of-life World Tree material using random characters, for instance. You can even call it non-canon so you don't have to worry about the continuity. Another option is to scribble something, anything, about what you remember any of the characters doing or thinking in that point of the story. At worst it will get the ink flowing and remind you of where you were, at best it'll become actual story text or deepen the character development of someone you thought of as a minor character.

Now, if I can pick up this pen in front of me and finish this stupid scene...
