Okay, just so you guys know, the store where I'm working at now litterally starts become flooded with "seasonals" - ie, people up from Florida to spend the summer in their second homes in the gated commmunities with dual stone gatehouses and actual attendants in said gatehouses and their tennis courts and whatnot - and around the Fourth of July things become a deluge.
Seriously, yesterday every single person employed at my store was working. I did a nine hour shift, and every lane was open, and there were lines and we we had people running the self-checkouts like real checkouts just to get people through faster and it CRAZY. Despite the ridiculous amount of rain we had. Today promises to be just as mad.
And yeah. This is why I prefer to write things in as few sittings as possible. Less time for doubt. But I only work 7 hours today, so I might be able to get this finished tonight. Hopefully, but probably not. Le sigh.
Thanks bb. Sometimes all I need is people to remind me they still care. I'm very insecure about my writing at times.
I'll try to have a good holiday, but I don't even get time and a half, so it's just work, work, work and deal with a whole bunch of rich entitled fuddy duddies. Le sigh.
I love your series and you are not too slow. You have had a lot of events over the last 6 months and real life sometimes has to intrude on our hobbies and past times no matter how serious those interests are and I understand very well how that feels. Its been only over the last few weeks I have been able to get out with my camera and just open my mind and take pictures grabbing whatever inspiration has caught my attention.
All I can suggest is in regard to your writing is just to go with the flow and write. And don't give up I have confidence in you, you are a good writer. And you can always email me if you want to rant or just chat.
And good luck with real-life stuff. Your posts for the last while don't sound like you've had all that great time.
I'm glad you still love the series. It's not even that other people want more fic, now. It's that I want to post more stuff, now, and never seem to have time/energy to write anymore because of RL. Le sigh.
thank you bb. as I said, I get really insecure about my writing if I've time to look/reread/think about it too much. Le sigh. I hate that real life has made this so backburner. I'm just glad people are still enjoying it - and willing to listen to me rant.
It's so frustrating how difficult writing is! I will be online later tonight to listen if you need a soundboard or just someone to complain to ♥ It's even more difficult when you're working against a deadline =.= I can never write well when I'm forced to, and yet having a deadline motivates me to write.
:D The problem is less the inspiration, more of the fact that it comes when I can't write. and when I have time too, I get plauged by doubts.
All i know is I want to finish it, then I can work on my McShep Match fic. I'm mostly finished with it (the next installment) now, it's just... i'm very concerned with how it will be received.
