I am. Every day. I get on my computer, see the open text documents, go "I need to write something today," and basically Nope on it.

I'm sure that there's at least a few of you who's done that.

I'm stuck on writing. There are too many things I want to write, on top of myself suddenly jumping off into the deep end of the Ace Attorney fics and franchise. Now I wanna write two, maybe three, stories with that as a crossover.

Of course only one of them's going to be readable here.

Okay, I tried to sit down and get started on the finish for Princess ♥ Princess - before I realize I had completely forgotten what direction I was going back in May. My notes were only marginally helpful (since I hadn't thought about this one at all since then, unlike the fics I'll get started on once it's done or whatever).

I think I'll take this weekend to try and get it done - but if I can't, I'll just put it on hiatus so I can focus on what I truly want to write.

I got 2700 words into the SYS-TER Chapter of "Equus Metamorphosis" and realized something wasn't working. I've been making notes for this chapter for about a week and revising the approach several times until I got to the point I'm at today. I had to stop and just step back.

Yes guys, I'm still alive and doing what comes to mind. Writing, apparently, wasn't on it (or at least it's been on and off) for the past couple weeks. You may have seen my newest story, "The One Who Is Always There," that's become a WAY outdated Mother's Day special short story. It started out as a way to take a break from my few other main stories I've been updating, perhaps gain some new ideas to how I progress them, and get what I thought was an interesting story out in the open. Now, I've

Well, as "The Magic of... Music?" is currently suffering some of the dreaded Writer's Block, I thought to relieve some stress I'd give it (Yes, I'm personifying Writer's Block here.) a taste of what I'd like to do with it. (Whistles) Oh, Crowley...?

Crowley: Sic 'em boy!

Spent the last three months working on a digimon fic and now I don't like anything I typed for it!

Well that's okay because I've got quite a few other ideas I can try to take to approach it, but thought I'd take a second to post another MLP fic idea I'd had in the meantime. Granted it'd be something of a crack-fic/parody (heavily inspired by this image and its comments) but still.

Critique, in my mind, is an assessment, an evaluation. It identifies the ideas the writer was attempting to get across, the sensations, the feelings, and judges how well those were communicated. It identifies the good versus the bad and pits these against each other, highlighting by contrast where the writer should focus their efforts to produce future, stronger works. At least, this is what I imagine critique to be.

After some time browsing, I think I'm in the minority.

Greetings Gamers!

I just wanted to give you and update on the story. It has quickly become my most popular story, which has never been my intent, which is just so bucking crazy!

Anywho!

I arrange my writing into both an overall palette as well as a palette for each scene. I call it a palette because I draw on each part of it when writing up my plan for each scene, a bit like a paint palette (and I use it to inform my plans for the writing)

Character
Place (lore)
Genre
Relationship

Hello! And welcome to my desperate plea for help suggestion box! I will be completely honest, I'm starting to run low on new, origional ideas for my Prank War story. 3 months of updating 3-4 times a week will do that to you.

So, time for audience participation! What kind of pranks do YOU want to see Nick, the Royal sisters, and company bug each other with? Put them here so I can have 'em all in one place. You will be credited for your ideas in the corresponding chapter.

I'm not gonna lie to any of you. This next chapter has been the hardest one for me to put together. The fights have been epic, and some of the dialog has revealed so much that had previously been left unsaid. It's all going to be hard to top without repeating setups or combat styles and similar back and forth.

Mykan... you just Bock Evaded me. This is your one and ONLY warning. If you attempt to Block Evade me again, you will be reported. Before, I reported you on someone else's behalf. Be glad I'm giving you a warning this time.

Oi, having the most terrible scourge of writers block trying to get the next chapter of Sins out... I've got an idea of where it's supposed to go and how I'm going to get there, it's just putting words to electronic paper.

This time it's a offshoot of The Moon In The Dark by Tatsurou titled The Moon In The Dark: Alt-Endings and Doomed Detours in which different paths or decisions are made that deviate from the original story, as the title implies. There's only 3 chapters published currently, but there are several others I'm working on.

I have been working tirelessly on several writing projects and I fear two of them may never be completed.

Why?
