Fickle Muse! Get a Grip On Yourself!

[the_gneech]

I very much don't want to work on Suburban Jungle for about a week and a half.

Instead, I want to work on this new D&D idea I have.

LAST week, when I was home for 20 hours of Personal Time Bank gone, I couldn't come up with anything useful. Now, when I have to get strips done for next week ASAP and plan to start Kung Fu on Monday and Wednesday nights so I'll have less time in the evenings, my brain only wants to work on something that I'd really rather not spend my time on!

ARGH!

All those people out there who say, "I wish I could write," or "I wish I could draw," you don't know how lucky you are to not have to deal with this crap. :P The creative mind is just as much a drag as it is a pleasure, and sometimes moreso.

See, I can draw, so I have all the same problems, but whether I can draw WELL is a different matter.
I know the feeling. Like what I said in my LJ about Phantasmata. =\
But, that's life. Ce la vie.

I have the stories to write - 6 of them all up - but the Letharges visited and I can't write any of them. The characters are in my head bugging me and yet I've not put anything down on paper. It's a pain.

1) Believe me when I say I understand! My story is sitting there doing nothing-- chapter one is almost four years old and I can't even establish a backstory! So currently, I've got a captain sitting at the sea, and his great-grandfather staring down the new creatures from space, having just discovered they both speak Hebrew. Argh!

2) You've got at least one guest strip available... :)

With luck Friday's strip will give you some
slight cause for amusement and or inspiration. :)

Why not teach yourself to draw? Practice, practice, practice-- that will fill up a lot of time. :)
