Still fighting against this damn KS-chapter which apparently doesn't want to be written. I'm still a thousand words away from my minimum word count for a chapter (3500), what I've written so far is only average, and I am getting increasingly desperate. I just don't know what to write. The whole thing is not made easier by a sort of inflammation (to simplify) I have in my right wrist and which means that I am supposed not to use my right hand, i.e. I can barely type. In addition to that I signed up for a TPM ficathon and have to write a ficlet in the next two weeks, I am for some bizarre reason intrigued by another weird pairing (Dooku/Mace) and my mind is constantly trying to find an in character way to get them together, I am hopelessly neglecting university about three weeks before my exams ... and, well, in general, the longer you wait to write a chapter, the more difficult it gets. You may expect Artemis/Zak-fluff, scheming drow, Drizzt-torture, a bitchy Artemis, and deus-ex-machina Jarlaxle (what would I do without him? ;)). I just don't know in which order. If anyone finds my creativity on the street, please send it back to me. -.- Oh, AND I'm being distracted by reading Good Omens fanfics. I just read the book (finally!) and characters like Aziraphale and Crowley and their slightly suspicious "friendship" are just begging for slash. How can anyone expect me to be productive under these circumstances?
And I really sound whiny, I know.

Oh, dear. You've been caught by the Aziraphale/Crowley. Yes, that is a bottomless pit of bottomless slashiness. Poor thing.

I weep for you, that the Muse has abandoned KS. I also weep for me;) I'm going to try to write a new chapter of MenzoNights soon, though, and maybe that will inspire you?

It's quite surprising that I only got there now. ;) But I'll survive, I can already feel that it's more a short time fascination than something that will keep me distracted for long. A bit like House - I read House/Wilson for a few weeks, and then I lost interest (not in the show, I still love it, but in the fanfics). Star Wars is a lot more dangerous for me right now. ;)

I am of course looking forward to the next chapter of MenzoNights, but I still hope that I will manage to finish the next KS-chapter before that. The problem is not really that I have no ideas for the story, or that I lost interest. I WANT to write it. The problem is that I have about a dozen different ideas, all very vague, and no clue on how they will all fit together. I want to write everything, my head is flowing over with possibilities, and the result is ... well, nothing. Don't worry, I won't give up. I love the story, I love the pairing, and that's not likely to change any time soon. ^^

I hate it when lj logs me out. oO That was me, obviously.

I always used to start writing just before the exams too :) Must be a bit like a coping mechanism.
Myself I'm kinda swamped with work and all the new stuff I have to learn, so I'm not even thinking about writing anything. I did manage to finish the Maul Book though:) Ha that guy Kicks Ass!

Exactly. Writing feels sorta like work (at least more than watching movies or hanging out with friends), you feel like you're not being lazy, and at the same time you avoid studying.

Maul kicks ass, yes. Gotta love him. :D Poor you, but at least now you actually have some sort of job. ^^ Oh, and the Tarantino night won't be before the Semesterferien, since we're all kinda busy right now. Maybe the weekend of the 18/19, not sure yet. You think you might come?

If you'd consider doing the whole thing on friday then probably yes. Sat and Sun I'll be working late though.

Friday 17th? Sounds good to me, of course I'll have to check with the others who want to come. And, if my wrist is healed until then and I work again, I might work early on Saturday, but I really don't know that yet.
