Yup, I'm winging this baby. *not a pretty baby*
sigh.

I'm having a really hard time with trying to get a comfortable balance between Kakashi and Sakura's 3rd person narratives. I noticed that I tend to write more in a subjective 3PN with a Kakashi bias... I need to balance it with more Sakura's POV but it not quite happening.

I like angsty fics, but so far what I have is just plain depressing. *bangs head on table*
On a brighter note, at least there will be smuttage.
Yay. \(^o^)/

Smuttage will make anything alright <3

But seriously though, just keep chiseling away until you're happy with the balance. I like me some angst. Don't be too afraid for it be somewhat depressing. ^^

Thank you for the encouragement. *hugs*
Writing doesn't happen naturally for me... kinda like pulling teeth here.

But I'm really excited to see what everyone else comes up with. I think that's the part I like best about these contests - anticipating what other people are going to do.

HEY... I just noticed that you're not signed up! o_O
You're not doing the sexy timez contest?

I hear you! I pulled out a story I've been working on for a very long time. I hadn't done anything on it in at least 6 months. I wrote... 3 words. Before my muse's garage door slammed shut.

I guess it does back on the shelf and maybe I try to write something else, or I go look at some awesome KakaSaku...

Sigh.I'll pick it up again and keep trying.

And we'll both get there. Keep on keeping on, Rei!

Long time no see!

At the mercy of a fickle Muse - perhaps an offering of alcohol and cake will bring back the Goddess of Creativity.
Mmm... brandy-soaked tiramisu... cake + alcohol. Yummy.

Keep at it, BB. I will too.
P.S. are you entering the contest?
