Being dumb is bad, m'kay?

Why should writing be so difficult? Writing on task that is, not this verbal diarrhea that counts as journalling (and should therefore probably not be public, but, hey, I'm a social dunce so therefore I'll ignore social mores for now).

Why is thinking so difficult? Concentrating. Discipline. I guess that's my answer, but why should something that is so... obvious, so... natural be so damn difficult to do?

Of course, it doesn't help when my verbal center shuts down and won't allow me to access my vocabulary.

On the plus side, I have managed to write about 1,000 words of SMHC in the last couple of days, so yay. I'm that much closer to an update. On the down side, every bloody sentence is a struggle, and I'm afraid it shows. I dread the printed-out read-through edit. I expect it will be as bad as chapter 10 of MAC was before revisions. *shudders*

I want to get SMHC finished this year. I would like to get all of my non-abandoned WIPs finished this year. But first comes SMHC, because, yeah. It needs to be finished.


But I really need to go to bed now, as tomorrow is a school day for Babe, which means waking up godawful early. Oh well.
