Hows it going? · 6:21am Jan 25th, 2014
Hey all, hope the new year is seeing you well. Me? Ah, same ol, same ol you know. Work remains busy but I'm getting the hang of it and it has provided a unexpected benefit...
Writers block. We all get it right? Well I think I've discovered my problem with it... At least for now.
I imagine most of us write in the same way, sit down in front of the computer (laptop, ect...) and come up with stories and ideas... At home. Therein lies my problem, you see I have too many distractions here. TV, hundreds of movies and games, food... Heck even the lure of a nap. But last week at work when things were running well I decided to take a full hour for lunch (which technically we're obligated to but if things are busy...) I had an idea and grabbed a few pieces of paper and a pen sat down and began writing... Lunch over, three pages of story... Next day same thing, and again... For some reason... I don't know, the complete lack of stimulus lets my mind work uninterrupted, over the past week I've wrote more then I did since I finished the First Year!
Now I'm not saying this will work for anyone... But hey, if your stuck give it a shot. Oh, earphones and music help to keep chatty co-workers away too lol
Anyhow! Point being work is progressing and the first chapter I hope will be done soon... I hoped to commission some artwork from the very talented Pixel-Prism but she's quite busy and her complex commission's won't be open for some time (and it will be complex), so I must wait or find someone else... Well we'll see.
Also I really wanted all of your opinions on the title of the next story. Do you think The Second Year is enough...? I know I like to try to get clever with the chapter titles but I'm not sure if that would be too simple... Well if you would let me know what you think, or any ideas you might have. I'm certainly not above using them for inspiration... (Or stealing them outright...)
Rick...
I mean... With permission and giving total credit of course.
Sadly my other stories I'm just not... Inspired. I think I will have to put them on hiatus for now... My apologies to the few fans they have, I have every intention of finishing them someday... Cold comfort I know.
Now... To sleep. Night all, take care.
Well as far as names go I don't really see anything wrong with, 'The Second Year' why not ask the readers in the comments of the latest chapter?
Or when you update it once more mention this on the authors notes that way more people will see it, and get better help with this.
