I mean, <em>really</em> frustrated. It's become obvious that for some reason I'm avoiding writing conflict. [Pretty sure that has to do with IRL stuff too, but that's another post.] Am I overthinking it? Am I worried that I'm writing too many chatty non-action transitional scenes? I don't mind writing these, but they're making my stories boring and I hate it when that happens!&nbsp;Which makes me think that what I need to do is get myself used to writing tense scenes again. I mean, that's what I have the 750 Words site for, don't I?&nbsp;<br /><br />Geh. I feel like I've been stuck in this position for almost a full year and I'm not sure why I can't get out of it. I need to find an outlet, methinks.<br /><br />Meanwhile, A is in the kitchen at the moment making pepper jam and gassing up the entire apartment with its potency. *kaff kaff*<br /><br />Other than that, not much to report...we're going on another mini-vacation at the end of the week to Monterey (just an overnighter), so that should be fun, though I'm hoping it'll be less foggy and overcast than it's been up here in SF!&nbsp;<br /><br type="_moz" /><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=jon_chaisson&ditemid=993558" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
