Fanfiction Frustration
Apr. 14th, 2005 02:07 amI'm getting really frustrated with my lack of time for writing.
I've only written my shorter Jack/Daniel pieces because I haven't had time to spend on the longer pieces in my notes. (Okay, The Walls Of Jericho's longer, but it's going to be a while in beta. Because my betas don't have time either.)
Of course, that was the whole reason I started reading Stargate fanfiction: I had no time to be bunnied by Harry Potter and not being able to write the stories I had was driving me crazy. So Stargate I could just read and enjoy.
I just want to take this glass of water and smash it across the room. I won't, because I have self-discipline, but the visualization is so clear there should be glass shards everywhere.
I just missed the deadline for Ashton Press and I'm really depressed about it. I'm going to miss the deadline for Off The Record as well. Just because I've No. Time. To. Write.
wildernessguru says that once I get into the swing of my schedule it'll go better, and I've cut out all the other things we do together. He's willing to shut off the TV for a couple hours in the evenings which is the only time I have right now.
I've had writer's block, but I don't know if this is worse. Stories hammering to come out, and starving to death from lack of attention, dying on the vine as I watch because I haven't the time to write.
I'm going nuts.
