I'm not sure about you, but where I live, it's just started to get cold, like in the last week or so and I am so unprepared. I don't even have the good blanket on my bed yet.

But even more than not having a great blanket to warm my toes, my mind feels like it is frosting over as well. I have three really great story developments stuck in my mind and my problem is HOW DO I BEGIN?

This writer's block of mine has been lingering over me for a while. It is like the only thing I can write are the things I shouldn't be writing, things that have nothing to do with my writing obligations. It is to the point that I see all my ongoing stories and can't even look at them.

Still, I sit down to write and it ends up being a oneshot, or I start writing to friends and by the time I look up, a few hours have passed with absolutely no progress and it's like 'Oh Crap'.

I have debated about asking for help with an opening paragaraph, but I even struggle with that too. Honestly, I don't like getting too much help with writing because it feels like cheating to me. I don't mind fully credited coauthoring, but just taking a bit here and a chuck there without sharing it is awful to me, but I don't want to share credit if the genesis and bulk are both mine.

Anywho...virtually all my Christmas shopping is done and I am really excited about Onew's birthday so I can post my part of the Christmas project (it is super sappy and sentimental, guys).  And once again, I thank you for reading and continue to feel blessed to have so many wonderful people in my life. Thank you.
