Update Peoples!!

So I realize that my last post was kind of, um, well...how do I put this?
Terrible.

But that's okay! Because I was really tired so It's really not my fault. I think I need some new excuses. Oh well.

Anyway I'll make this quick.

I'm stuck again.

You didn't actually think that was it, did you? Oh you silly human-person!
I'm stuck on another (2) of my chapters. Which is annoying because I can almost feel the end. It's near!
Yes, that's right. The end is near.

But in all seriousness, I'm starting to realize that the real Rainstorm that hits us is ourselves. We each have our own little quirks and problems that we meet in our writing life, whether in real life or in your book. I myself, along with lack of inspiration, am struggling with not having enough time, or enough space. I keep dreaming about my perfect writing hidey-hole, but It'll be a long time before I get one of those. Can't.....wait....

And sometimes all that self-editing/self-critisizing gets in the way, throwing insults at your brain the entirer time. How the hell are you supposed to fight your own mind? It's not easy, let me tell you! first of all, you have to get a really small imaginary sword and then you....uh....I'm getting off topic again aren't I?

Yeah, I tend to need guidelines when it comes to my writing.

I have to go guys, it's late and guess who has to get up early tomorrow?

ME.

Present Time!!!

I thought I would be nice and give everyone a present.


That's right. Everyone thank me.
(In an effort to save the environment, I run on praise now)


Well I think you can tell by the picture...


Kittens! Here's one for you, and one for you, and you, and one for you, and one for you, and you, and you, and everyone else who wants one! Except you crazy cat lady. I think you need an intervention. That's the next blog over.


So here is your very own montage of cute (and funny!) kittens to play with. Enjoy. I want them back tonight. No exceptions.




Thank you, thank you. *hissed* this is the part where I get a standing ovation. NOW!!!
Lol, hope you enjoyed your present! Courtesy of I can has Cheezburger. Website.


Bye guys! (and yes this counts as an update. Why do you care what I'm doing? My writing is doing FINE thank you!)

Abandoned

Yeah, yeah I know. I abandoned you guys. But hey, I have an excuse!

No. No I don't. Other than I'm lazy, and was putting off writing all together. Which, in my book, is a completely valid excuse. And your arguments don't apply.

I SAID STOP ARGUING!

Alright, now that that's done, lets get on with our new post, okay children?

Okay I'm sorry for sounding condescending. I've been really tense lately with all my chores and responsibility, and my annoyance at interruptions from my writing, as well as my writing actually. I've decided to put my ms on the shelf for the time and work on my other one. So I'm working on the plot line and everything.

I never really thought writing was hard. I would always say, oh the words just come out. But now, starting to dive into the real world of writing, I'm getting cold feet. I'm even more harsh on my writing, and I tear myself down all the time. Writing can suck. It can be wonderful, exciting, empowering, but it can also be saddening, discouraging, and maddening. It's a hard art to master, and an even harder one to breakthrough. Art is just as bad, but at least you can become a famous artist after you die. When you write a book, if it gets past publishing, the chances of becoming famous after death is slim to none. More likely none.

But I don't want to discourage anyone. I love writing, and could never give it up. What can I say? I'm a masochist. Writers by definition are masochists.

Anticomplished

*Sigh*


Remember that rainstorm today? Well guess what just hit me. *Nods sadly*
I need someone to force me to write! God, sometimes I hate writing! Like I just can't force myself to write! I have so many barely-started books, and the one I love, happens to suck. In my opinion. I have no idea what to do. How do I show time passing? How do I do this? How do I do that? 


I hate writing. God it sucks.


And now it's raining.
