tried writing again last night while in bed, and I don't know - it's kind of strange because I know that rationally, whatever I'm writing is... solid. it's exactly the same as what I've always been writing.
although I thought my writing block was because of 1) writing unfamiliar characters 2) writing Kuroyaku 3) just general disinterest in writing, I'm starting to think otherwise.
I tried to write Futakuchi, who by all accounts should be an easy character for me to write. I know I wrote him in character, in the five or six paragraphs that I managed to write last night. I know I have a plot outlined in my mind, although not the specifics.
it's exactly the same as what I've always been doing, and even my style was more or less my usual one - although I have to admit it's not the one I usually write Futakuchi in... it's a bit more serious than my usual Futakuchi tone, but it still has Futakuchi's voice carrying across very clearly.
reading it is fine, but I can't help feeling that something's really lacking in my writing. I'm not enjoying it, and I'm fighting with the words. I've been fighting with the words for the past week! (distressed whale noises)
( more distressed whale noises ) meanwhile, I think I'll try to do some look-backs at my older fics too. might help, or something...
