ultra_ficSo, I'm on this big fic writing kick, which is great, in a way. I mean, I figured a couple of weeks off work would be great in giving me lots of free time for lots of fun and relaxing things but also for lots of fic writing. The only problem is that most of what I'm writing is not new chapters of my current WIPs. Most of it is the beginnings of new stories which I absolutely do not need to be writing right now because, hello, 4 WIPs and a couple of exchange fics already in the works that I absolutely should be working on!
Ugh, why do I do this? Why do I get from the beginning to the middle of fics and then just sort of wander off and start new stuff instead of finishing existing stuff? I'm bad with middles, I know this. I get all excited in the beginning of stories and towards the end of stories, but holding it together in the middle is so hard - I just get bored! lol
Oh, what is even the matter with me? Is everybody like this? I tend to assume it's just me, but maybe it's not. Anyway, rant over, because I need to go and write something. Preferably not another new thing that's just going to have to go on the 'maybe later' pile, so I can move the WIPs forward from the middle towards the end already.
(In case you were wondering, I have started 3 new fics in the last week or so - one each for Hart of Dixie, MCU, and Gilmore Girls, plus I've been messing with notes I have written down for three original fics and another GG fic! lol)
