sooo

I'm going a wee bit nuts.  My muse is pissing me the hell off.  I'm having a hard time with ch 3 of "Whiteout" and arggggg!  Just... ARRRGGGG!  *whimpers*  I feel like I'm wasting very precious fic time by staring blankly at the screen.  I've got all of 413 words.  Someone shoot me.

Oh.  And I have to work tomorrow for a little bit. :(  Sad.

Holy crap! What is up with all our muses?! I can't write a thing. I even have a blank page open, just waiting to be written on. *headdesk*

Yep. I watched a movie. I'm second guessing what I DID write. This is terribly frustrating. Grrr.

I can't do Connor/Abby at all at the moment, got paragraphs and bits and pieces but that's it. I've tried watching series 4 again now that I have the DVDs and listening to angsty music ... the result is major angsty!danny (the muse is definitely favouring him at the moment) and *cough* I have a smutty Abby/Matt demanding attention - you can blame Tay_21 for that one!

Hoping I feel a bit more inclined for Abby/Connor after a bit of a recharge - girl's night out tonight, and then the James Blunt gig on Tuesday night.

I hope your muse starts co-operating soon *hugs*

Ahhh! Not you too! What the hell?! I'm thinking S4 is to fault at least in part... they left things too unfinished and ambiguous. I hope your Connor/Abby come back. :(

gah! Bad bunnies, no biscuit! I know exactly how you feel, I've been the same for most of this month (and quite a lot of January as well, to be honest). I *want* to write, I have a backlog queue of bunnies that I really want to do something with, but half the time I;ve been opening a word doc, staring at the blank page until the screensaver kicks in, and eventually closing it down again having written sod all :-(

Maybe try writing something different and coming back to the fic that's stuck later once you've broken the writers block on something else?

I am about to that point. At least then my fic time won't be totally wasted. What's with the muses, eh? I'm blaming s4 for it. They left things so wierd between Connor and Abby, and I'm unsure of where they're going. No likey.

I hope your muse kicks in... flaky things, aren't they?

I feel much the same about series 4. The only bunny I've had for Connor/Abby as a result of series 4 was an incredibly angsty one where they break up (and quite possibly don't get back together again). I don't know if it's because we were denied seeing them actually get together, but somehow I feel like I was happier with their onscreen relationship when it was UST and apparently fairly one-sided than the series 4 dynamic of them actually being a couple *hides from rest of the C/A crowd*.

I do seem to be making slow progress with a fic at the moment. Unfortunately it's not one of the birthday fics that I *should* be working on, but any writing is better than none. Hope you make some progress soon.

You know, I don't think it was the UST... just that we KNEW Connor loved her more than anything, and Abby felt the same but she couldn't admit it to herself. They have left us with the impression of a relationship under stress (although not as stessed as we all made it out to be) and that's not conducive to ficcing. I think with a little bit more Conby moments we ALL would have been a lot happier. Seems if they were deliberately trying to steer away from any real emotion except for these weeeee little glimpses. *sigh*

And YAY for your progress. I need to get to it. *sigh again*

I can offer you nothing but a hug and some cookies.

And a dog who looks like a dandelion with feet.

Aw, thanks. I'll take all I can get. Think I'm just going to write some Hatter/Alice smut. Maybe muse will cooperate later.
