The more I try and set myself targets to get a certain amount of writing done in a set time (well I do have a full time job and limited writing time!), the less they come though! <br /><br />I just have to put on some music, go for a walk and let myself get excited by what's going to happen next so I get a scene in my head that just has to come out next time I sit down to my laptop. <br /><br />Great blog - so much going on, I'm going to have to have a little explore!Sallyhttp://sallypanayiotou.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1439710678680377391.post-11702442492566074512011-11-27T01:35:18.832-05:002011-11-27T01:35:18.832-05:00I know exactly what you're talking about, Heat...I know exactly what you're talking about, Heather. I go through the same thing! Those writing challenges seem to help me, which is why I signed up for NaNo, but it's not going as well as I'd hoped. But there's still a few days left! <br /><br />I've never seen Psych before, but that clip is pretty darn funny. Looks like a great show!LynNerdKelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04167392990015741278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1439710678680377391.post-7699281058015399252011-11-25T09:00:18.263-05:002011-11-25T09:00:18.263-05:00Can so relate.

Ahem. Sorry about t...OMG I LOVE PSYCH SOOOOO HARD!<br /><br />Ahem. Sorry about that. LOL. I use music to help when I'm not in the mood, but sometimes, if I find myself getting distracted too easily, having to work too hard to stay writing, I let it go. I figure it's my muse's way of telling me she needs a recharge.<br /><br />Nice post!

The repulsion prompts you to look deeper within yourself and the story.<br /><br />My repulsion has been based off the pressure I apply to myself. I allow outside enemies to hinder my ability to write. I need to head to the coffee shop, which is where I produced dozens of short stories last year.<br /><br />Thank you, H.

Right now I'm working on two things, one new, one old, so if I can't find the way to go with the new, I go back to revising the old. <br /><br />oh, and psyche is hilarious.mshatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06308916014310536449noreply@blogger.com
