... oh, frickadoodle. Writing fail.

Okay, I think I'm going to give up on spook_me. I've been struggling with this fic all day, and I've managed to write ... two paragraphs. This story just isn't happening ... I really like the idea that I wanted to work with (that Ursa's image in Azula's mirror isn't Azula's hallucination, but rather, Ursa's ghost, which is still haunting the palace) but I simply cannot seem to get into the right headspace to write a spooky/moody story right now.

But spook_me isn't an exchange and has no requirement to give notice before dropping out, so ... yeah. I think this would be a good one to drop before I waste even more time working on it. I think I'd rather spend that time and effort either working on one of the exchange fics, or doing research/brainstorming for my NaNo (whatever it turns out to be).

Feh.

Well, better to realize that now than after killing yourself trying to meet the deadline. And hey, maybe it'll come to you while you're trying to work on something else? Just because you're not in the right headspace now don't mean you won't be later.

Yeah; I might do the story later, but right now I think I'm just wasting too much mental processing effort (and time, and research, and so forth) struggling to get out a story that will probably be mediocre because of my general apathy about it. Much better to concentrate on the exchanges and the things I want to work on, like my NaNo!
