Writer's Block and Studio Ghibli

Ola Mi Amigas y Amigos!

So, finally finished posting what was left of Inbox Road. Almost 72,00 words in the bucket and I feel good to have one less stone around my neck, even if it was a lovely gemstone. But you guise, I have three open stories (well, technically one will always be open probably) and I just can't come up with a word. The hardest part of this is that one of the stories is really fun once I get started but nothing is coming to me and I am about to lose my mind. That is why I am here begging for help again. Please, if any of you would like to help, I am looking for chapter contributors for my 2min parody. Just two paragraphs is all I need for a chapter but I have really hit the bottom of the well on this and if I don't start updating, I think I might just delete the whole thing because it has just been too hard. Funny doesn't come naturally to me, at least in a verbal medium. Visually, I know funny but the words are not my strong suit. However this story was a passion project for me and I just can't give up my hope to finish it. So if you could please look at the story and let me know where you can fit in, I would be much obliged. Credit and refferals are always given to contributors and I have been known to do a chapter or two for a friend in exchange. You know, a little trade off if you will so don't be shy.

Now, I will tell you about my day. I watched 3 Studio Ghibli movies today and I think my heart is broken. There was so much love and joy and happiness and sadness and cute and angsty love and agh...just all of the oceans of feels. So here are gifs of the love tsunami I just survived.

Okay, I have to use that in a story somewhere...

My heart hurts for Turnip Head

Doesn't that remind you of how your parents used to cover your eyes during a rated R moment on t.v.?

Catbus..why is this not a real thing? Furry seats and walls with hyper speed too~perfection.

Gosh, are kids not the ing worst? Let a take a nap, damn it!

For those of you familiar with The Neverending Story, doesn't that look like Falcor the Luck Dragon?

Right when this scene started, the pizza guy arrived and I felt like a wizard.

Alright, well, I hope you had a good weekend and I that I hear from you soon. Take care and good luck with exams!

Congratulations on finishing your fic ^.^
That is always nice.

But I think you might be putting too much pressure on yourself.
It's fanfiction, so taking breaks is allowed.
And being less than perfect is also allowed.

Maybe you should try a short break?
At least when I'm feeling pressured, I just don't write anything for a few days or a week, don't even try, and then eventually the urge to write comes to me again, on it's own, so I can't stay away lol... the addict that I am...

Of course maybe you're different, but it's worth the try, just focus on something else entirely, take a week or two off writing, in a way that you don't write anything (unless you really really want to and the pages just come floating out lol)... See what happens, maybe it works maybe not.. but maybe it's worth the try to loosen the pressure..

And I don't think you should delete your story (unless of course having them there makes you feel really really bad), even in the worst case scenario that you don't manage to finish them... Some of my favorite stories are unfinished, but still I'm grateful that they are there, and I'd much rather have them unfinished that not have them at all...

Really hope things work out for you sweety, and that you'll get some help with your story!
(and of course you're funny, that's a given)
