I think it might finally maybe be getting through my head that silence is not automatically negative. This is a rather odd time to be realizing this, since - unrelated to the internet - I have been in a not very good mood lately. (Part of my grumpiness is due to the fact that I'm working 6 days this week. Not full days, most of them, but still.) But as grumpy as I've been, I haven't been emoing over things like I would have in the past. So, yay, progress.

I attempted to write yesterday, and everything was just coming out flat. Like, "this happened. Then this happened. He said this. Then this happened." kind of flat. I dunno, I just sort of wrote eloquence off as a loss and figured getting the events down was still progress, and I could go back later and make it look nice. But geez, it's aggravating. Where did my words go?

Augh, I can't stand it when what I'm writing comes out flat like that. Almost nothing is more discouraging to me. :/
*slap on back* Good luck with it!

Omg, you and I seem to suffer the same affliction. Sometimes I just look at something I wrote and it just reads... like shit, basically. And, as much as I love my f-list, sometimes I wonder if anyone has the heart to say "Hey, Cheryl, did you sleep-type this, cuz it's looks kinda meh." Which is precisely why I've posted and pulled like five fics the past few weeks. *is hopeless*

And yeah, it still sucks to work so many days straight, no matter how short the shift may be.

Hope things get better. *many hugs*

Thanks. I'm hoping the mojo comes back next week. (This is why I don't think I could make it as a full-time writer ^^; you're not allowed "off" days.)

I'm pretty much convinced that no one would say anything. Which has made me more than a little neurotic at times (working on it ^^; ). It doesn't help that it can be hard to tell if it really is bad, or if everything would read badly at that point. I'm hoping this is just a side-effect of my mood and the mojo will return soon.
