Jun. 3rd, 2002 04:42 pmI like, am so desperate to finish a story. Any story. There're twenty-odd fics on my drive in various states of completion but I can't end a single one of them. I can't even look at most of them, at this point. And I can't seem to write anything new.
I know why I'm blocked--there's one story I want to work on, one that was only a couple lines from done, but it's on the old hard drive and I can't *get* to it, it wasn't on my floppy disk of saved work. And I can't recreate it because it was one of those stories you write in a zone and you don't even think about it until it's done and then you're like, laughing at yourself and amazed and happy. And the computer crashed while I was writing it. All I can remember is that it started with, "The story is different when Chris tells it." Ugh.
So I know why, but I can't figure out how to work around it besides sitting here and plugging away at unfinished fic after unfinished fic--
Going. Crazy.
But the telephone guys came two days early, so at least I can complain about how frustrated I am! :)
Also, at least I am not as frustrated as others. *huggles
emmyfic*
Which reminds me that I did not get songfic beta read. Partially because I wanted to get it in before the deadline but also because I don't have a boyband beta. And because I was scared. *G* The trishafish said, 'Round hole, square peg much?' and I said, 'Screw you! I like it!' and I kicked her in the leg. :)
Anyway, anyone who'd like to volunteer to maybe possibly help someday in the future would garner instant adoration, as well as fairly skilled return beta. *bats eyelashes*
Sigh. Off to fight with fic again. Or maybe, since I've been internetless since Friday, to read. Less frustrating. *G*
