In spite of previous attempts, some from many years ago, I'm still very new at this.
That said, after the struggle I went through to hammer out the 11k or so words last month, I'm finding it easier to write everything after it.
It could be that I'm essentially rewriting some of what I mentioned writing years ago, but even when I had an idea of what I wanted to write, it always seemed to be stuck. Couldn't really just...drop it onto the page, y'know?
I dunno, but I do remember how it inspired me to create through other means, and I love it. :v

Anyone else get annoyed when we have all sorts of ideas and stories in our heads but can just get it out there? I have made a rough draft of a story I wanted to write about a young peasant girl living in the times of witch persecutions by Stendarr’s faithful but I’m just too lazy to get it on here. That and I’m in desperate need of a new computer

And yet I am, and live—like vapours tossed. I long for scenes where man hath never trod A place where woman never smiled or wept There to abide with my Creator, God, And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept, Untroubling and untroubled where I lie The grass below—above the vaulted sky.”

That and I’m in desperate need of a new computer Yep. I have a Scrivener project that’s just story ideas. That way I can jot down the shiny new whatever and know that it will be there when I come back to it. I hear you about the new computer. My old laptop just died. I have a friend who swears by google docs, though. She uses that for all of her writing. Uleni, I’m glad you tried it!

I'm doing great, just been working on other projects so I haven't had the time to visit the forums often. But now I've made more time. I don't think I'll do the NNWM but I'm entertaining the idea.

I see where your imagination comes from in a way Hmm, I'm more of a word doc person lol. But like I mentioned, I finally got that done and now I can write again. Eventually . . . procrastination plays a role here too.
