Writing is hard

[maggie33]

I have such a “my writing is bad” phase. It happens very rarely to me, but it’s so annoying. Because I have the first draft of my new Guardian fic finished and I can’t motivate myself to work on it. Grrrrr....


Ah, well, let’s talk about happy fannish things instead.

Legends of Tomorrow midseason trailer

It’s amazing and I can’t wait.


Something In The Rain

9 episodes watched. It continues to be an absolute delight. Both “I love you” scenes were super adorable, and I almost cried with Joon-hee when he was listening to Jin-ah’s message. And Jung Hae In’s beautiful smile lights up the screen. Every time he smiles I smile, too. :)



HIStory 3 Trapped

I’m kind off interested in this new Taiwan BL drama.

Summary:

A police officer and a gang leader were killed in gunshot attack. What's the secret behind this case? The only survivor, Tang Yi, is now the gang leader. He's striving to find the murderer by setting a trap... but the police officer, Meng Shao Fei, who has a sense of justice, gradually falls into the "love trap" set by Tang Yi.

It sounds like fanfic, in a good way. :) It looks like it, too. The trailer (not subbed) is on facebook here.

Writing is hard and brain weasels are the worst, which makes it harder. *squishes* I hope this phase passes for you quickly.

The lack of motivation between finishing a draft and editing is rough! I usually have to take a break to keep myself sane from staring at the same words for too long.

I am also intriuged by HIStory 3. I know a lot of people recommended HIStory 2 really highly, but I wasn't really able to get into it, and the accents were tough on me. But cop/gang leader sounds like it'll be more interesting. I'll have to keep an eye out for that.

Argh, writing is indeed hard sometimes. Maybe you just need to let your brain relax for a little bit before coming back to the story, though? And hey, you did just finish the first draft of a story!! :-)

HIStory 3 does sound interesting... If you end up checking it out, I'd love to know what you think!

Writing is hard! But you'll get there. And first draft is absolutely allowed to be "bad" (by whatever standards you apply). You can make it better! It'll be great in the end! *cheers you on*

Belatedly arriving back at this post to cheer on your writing, and hope that your motivation is well on its way back! *hugs* You can do it!
