Today’s writing observations:

– I am in awe of people that can create a living, breathing world, with just a few sentences. It doesn’t feel like there are paragraphs of info dumps and I wish them to teach me their ways.

– Opening sentences are damn hard.

– In fact getting started is the hardest part of this writing business. Once started, it’s easier to continue but that blinking cursor on a blank document, is full of intrinsic resistance.

So in summary, I tried to start my Positivity fic and failed because I couldn’t think of an opening line. I then opened Between Two Fires (my Monthly Rumbelling fic) and I’ve just written two paragraphs to “set the scene” which doesn’t feel like the way it’s supposed to work.

I love writing but it doesn’t half frustrate me on occasion.
