This is probably going to be short since my stomach's not feeling well. Queasy, queasy.
So writing. I said it'd be writing centric didn't I? So what am I writing? A blog post obviously. But that's not what I mean when I say writing. Stories, novels, limericks? Not actually working on any. I've been in a bit of slump. I tried doing National Novel Writing Month back in November, though. I got 6000 words. And now I can't remember what it was about. It wasn't about Gumdrop the gingerbread man, that was the previous years attempt. Didn't even get to 3000 words that time. What the hell did I write about?
Looked it up. It was a story that had been bouncing around in my head for years. It's about a gnome named Tweezers and the thing he finds. It's an egg, which, once it hatches draws Tweezers into a war he'd rather stay out of. I got as far as the egg hatching, which is quite a bit further then the first time I attempted writing it. It started out as an idea for an Eragon parody. It just wasn't humorous enough for me to get into. Boring actually.
I haven't really written much on anything since then. Some freewriting has been done but no stories have come out of it. It makes me sad. I used to have more ideas then I could write about.
I"m thinking for this blog I might do something like a Writing Prompt Wednesday, where I take a writing prompt I find and write a story. I shall do that this Wednesday and see how it goes.
