Thank you for the encouragement & the whip-cracking!

I'm 'clocking in' at about 400 words – edited though
(I do wish I could 'unlearn' the neurotic urge to edit as I go) :eek:

Sadly, no sex yet... It seems to be taking on a 'battle against time / self-pitying / aging theme' (and that's NOT too damned sexy, is it?) :p

That can be worked out.
building emotion, engagement and sympathy for the characters is first.

Edit later!

Pour it out now.

There is a great deal of beauty in age.
What's the song...? "the Story"Brandi Carlile
the beauty of past loves and physical beauty...and the memories of the same. The shared experiences... which will lead to more and deeper ones. Partners age too...and love softens the lens.

It's a crippling habit, IMO... It can really slow you down and interrupt the flow,
but I've heard many valid counter-arguments as well. I can't seem to break it,
so I guess I'll just have to learn to embrace it ;)


"procrastination" is my true bane

Wrong!
embrace this!

Editting will come.... the meat needs to be there...trim the fat later. There will always be editting, but write while the muse is HOT.

and Do it NOW.

yoompin' yimmminies, woman!
 
NOW YOUR PM BOX is also "blocked"!

how am I to "crack the whip?"


multi tasking???

I gather that you are writing (and NOT editing) while you are on LIT.... :rolleyes:

As George Foreman said: "I may be Old and I may be fat, but here I is"

procastinatin' is I.

So...

Unsung, clean out your box, read some PMs, Post to 4 threads max. and back to writing. She feels time is slipping away... her lost youth... yet there she is... the subject of intense and passionate scrutiny.

so?
The idea was to get writing. To UNblock. After this, get on to all the other fine suggestions.

I am deeply indebted for the "unblock" :)

still, not sure I have a viable story in the works here...
may I PM it to you for thoughts/advice/suggestions?

Of course!
But I am a lousy writer. And a crappy editor.
 
well, you succeeded in kicking my ass and i actually *finished* one
sadly, during a nasty bout of insomnia

way too much wine & whine involved
...turned into a bit of a pity-party :p

but i've submitted it anyway



THANK YOU FOR UNBLOCKING ME!!!

me?

You're welcome. But really you were easy. I know just enough about you (virtually nothing), to be able to guess at one of your buttons.
