Bored and Writer's Block isn't helping...

...I'm stuck in the fic I'm working on right now. Well, actually I'm stuck on all the fics I'm working on, but that's neither here nor there. I'm just trying to work on the fills for the prompt entry I posted a little while back and the one I'm focused on at the moment is being mean and I can't get anything else out of it right now. Which sucks because nothing's been resolved yet. *sigh*

I tried working one another fill instead and wasn't even able to get a full sentence written yet. The whole point of asking for prompts was to help jog my writer's block and write some short ficlets. The only one I've managed to finish ended up at 2700 words, I think. This one is looking like it'll be just as long. And I can't even get anything written for the other ones I've got to fill.

And now I'm just bored because I want to read fic, but there haven't been any new Sam/Gabriel fics I can read posted recently. There have been a few posted for the Gabriel Big Bang, and I've read some of them. But there are still quite a few I can't because of content that bugs me. Not that they'd be bad fics, because I'm sure they're awesome. But my squicks won't let me read them and that is soooo annoying. Why do I have to squick so easily?!?!?! And a lot of the J2 and Sam/Dean fics I've seen being posted just aren't holding my interest. WTH?! I even tried branching out into another fandom (Criminal Minds), but can't even finish half the fics I start reading because they aren't Supernatural. >_<;;;

I need, like, deadlines or something. That would help me write, it's always helped me before. But personal deadlines mean nothing to my muse, because they're so easily broken. grrrr...

*pouts*

Sorry for the really weird, random rant. D:

What about just drabbles? I can give you a prompt/pairing and you have to fill it within 100 words? I did that for spn_bitesized and it was a good stress reliever and sparked some synapses. Or, it can be like 150 words if you want but no more than 200. They're quick to write but good because you have to figure a way to say a lot in the most concise way possible. :)

I'm almost done with the new chapter of bb. Like, seriously this time. Probably within the next five minutes. Though it sounds like you're in a Sam/Gabriel mood so J2 probably won't help satisfy you. D:

You could like fill in the prompts right here. Make this post into a kind of meme or something. :)

I think I'd like to at least try that. I can't guarantee they'll make a lick of sense, but it might be good to get rid of this darn block.

I think I realized part of my problem with the G/S/C fic. I have it set up as G. POV, C. POV, then S. POV, right? It goes in that order twice. And the next part of the pattern is G. But I'm stuck. So I think I need the rest of it to be in S's instead. Because he and I get along way better than anyone else. lol. I just didn't want to break the pattern. But that'll have to be done.

And: EEEEEE!!! I read this comment a couple hours ago but couldn't comment back because we were in a rush to leave. But I'm sooo excited for Chapter 4. I just saw that it was in my email. ^___________________^ *happy dance*

So, yeah. If you want to give me a prompt/pairing, I'll try to fill it in 100 words. *bites nails*

Kay!! I'm going to start a new thread or whatever the hell it's called with each prompt, okies? And I'm only gonna give you two options, that way if you don't feel one then that's OK and also you won't be overwhelmed by me spamming you with like twenty bajillion prompts! Kay! And you're going to do GREAT!!! I tried it and it was a LOT more fun than expected. I'm going to stick to S/G, C/G pairings right now. If you want to do more, tell me if you want Wincest and/or gen as well!!! /o/

Are one to two word prompts OK? I can do more. I just figured that the shorter the prompt the easier it will be to get 100 words or less written. :P

And, YAY! /o/ I'm glad you're excited about the new chapter!! I'm excited for it to be over, but I'm afraid I'm going to need handholding to make me feel AWESOME about it. I just hope I can rediscover my humor during the editing process. *headdesk x5*
