Random Progress blog / New Episode · 2:37pm Apr 3rd, 2013
Heya! Haven't heard from me in a while, but I finally had a legitimate reason to write a blog.
I found this great fan-made, full-length episode that you all should all check out if you haven't already.

For those who care, it has been incredibly difficult to write since this year started. I'd blame the new submester classes but it is also partly due to writer's block. Between auditions for jazz band, performances, and mounds of papers and exams, I've had little time where my muse and my physical ability to write aligned.
This submester I've taken an English Language and Composition Class, which has so far vastly improved upon my writing skills. Unfortunately, the amount of papers I have to write for this class is staggering, so it pretty much drains me of my desire to write. On the plus side, I might end up posting a short story I wrote and a kick-ass essay for the class on DeviantArt.
So meh.

Whoa, it's been a long time! I thought you had moved on entirely. Good to hear from you, though (and I saw the episode a few days ago. It was pretty boss). Hope things go well with any writing you work on.
981031>>981031 No, I had a pretty bad hit with depression to be honest. I hadn't forgotten the community; I just felt I had nothing to talk about.
Writings been painfully slow. In 4 months I still didn't come up with a second chapter, but that's because I hadn't fleshed out the idea entirely. I've written something every day though, even if it was just a sentence or two. Most of it is just scenes that I know I will do, but they come completely out of chronological order.

If you have motivation issues with writing maybe just pick up a book or read around a bit. I find that usually gets me in the mood to write. Other than that, if you have the chance to pick up Steven King's 'On Writing' he has good practical advise on getting down to writing when it's tough, plus it's a great read.
Well, ok. Hope your depression gets better.
