I'm freaking out

[starrylizard]

Why the hell did I sign up for a fic exchange? I did it once before and vowed never to do it again... and then I did. :(

More than half the writing time is down and I'm still flailing about in an attempt to find a hook for a story. I have some ideas, but nothing solid.

Freaking out.

Gah!

EDIT: My Friends list is AWESOME! That is all! :)

Is it for the Sam challenge? If so, keep in mind that it only needs to be 1,000 words. Pick an aspect of your idea and tell yourself, 1,000 words is only a couple of pages. Maybe that'll make you comfortable enough to expand on it.

I know what you mean, though - there's something about the "homework assignment" aspect of it that tends to make the brain lock right up solid, even though it's supposed to be FUN. *sighs*

Good luck!

Yep it is indeed for the Sam challenge. I feel a lot better having had my little freak out. In fact I even have an outline of an idea, which is already looking up. *deep breath* I just forgot why I don't do these. I think it'll be fun once I get a moment to sit down and just plonk something on the paper as per usual.

Thanks! :)
