I am itching to write a multi-chapter VigOrli.
Really itching.
But for some reason, I just can't get going. Started it many times, with many different plot bunnies, got maybe one chapter going, and then dumped it as not good enough. I know the basic way that I want the story to go. I am talking modern day, present time AU. Angst, hurt/comfort, fluffy moments. Sex. The works, basically.
What I am probably lacking is confidence.
There are so many great, long, V/O Au's out there, how can I make mine worth reading?
I want to read a really great, long, angsty, H/C AU and since no one is writing at the moment, I guess what I want is to make my own.
If I could only get going. *sigh*
Any advice, people?

Maybe I am just procrastinating, I don't know. I think I am a perfectionist too. LOL. It's driving me mad!

Procrastinating is my middle name, I fear. ;P Not just in writing fiction, but in other things as well. So don't worry, you're not alone! I've also noticed that I need to be in a certain mood to be able to write, to feel genuinely inspired so to speak. When the mood is right the words come out easily, if the mood is wrong I can't write anything worth posting. *g*
