Ow!

I just hit a massive wall. Don't know what I did, but suddenly there is no writing happening. Not fic writing, anyway. WTF, self? I barely got 500 words written yesterday. I think the 10,000-odd words on BigBang + 8,000-odd words of "Heaven Without You" broke me. Crap. I don't have time for this. The BigBang is not going to write itself, and I am WAY behind.

Crappity crap crap.

Three weeks left, and I'm only about 25% done. *cries*

[livejournal.com profile] ariadnes_string: I am still working on your malaria prompt. Consider it a late birthday present, 'kay? I have to re-work some bits, and it's not done yet, but it's coming along slowly. :)



Oh, hey, flist? Where do you get your really good SPN icons? I'm looking for a couple of specific-ish icons (Chuck and Gabriel icons, that is), but my Google-fu is failing abysmally. Help a girl out?

Since one of my primary sources cleared out her entire journal, my main method if I don't make 'em myself is to go to Google and just type in, like, "Castiel icons" and see what pops up. Usually the first couple will be something that will lead to an LJ comm with tags and things. . . .

And OMG I hear you on that wall. I just spent the last several days climbing one. The only advice I can offer is not to get too annoyed with people who tell you to "just write, dammit" as though it were that easy. Also, editing what you've already got done can a) get you thinking in a less stressful way about your fic and b) make you feel accomplished even when you don't get anything written.

Oh, and whatever you do, DON'T decide you're gonna try playing a simulation game for, like, half an hour, just while you watch your fake pundit show, but then you'll definitely get to writing -- because the next thing you know it'll be three AM and you'll be wondering where the night went.
