Cue writing-related flail.

Okay, so I am finally coming to terms with the fact that I have to drop out of
tardis_bigbang, again, because this was, creatively speaking, the month from hell and I could not write anything no matter how much I wanted to. It happens, and I'm trying not to let it bother me too much - I did manage to write a couple small things in the past few days, and those made me feel marginally better about myself.
750 Words, by the way, is really kind of fantastic. I have been playing with it for about a week, and even though I am still not hitting the daily goal most of the time (and I totally missed writing today because... I slept through it...), it gives you points for writing. The best way to make me do anything is to make it a competition (even if I am mostly competing with myself and/or TIME ITSELF), so I think it's pretty cool. Writerpeople, you should go poke at it and see if it works for you.
And speaking of competitions...
writerinadrawer is starting up again this summer. And even though I should have learned better last time, I am seriously considering signing up again. I do have a guaranteed spot if I want it, and it might be really helpful to have something to do with prompts and people to compete against and stuff... On the other hand, it might just drive me crazy and make me want to set everything on fire. That is also a possibility. Thoughts, anyone? I haven't been so great at keeping writing commitments this past year or so, but I don't really think avoiding trying is really the way to fix that. *Indecisive flail*
