      Exactly a week old, and no, no pictures. Sadly. Shadow is cameraphobic.

              Nope. Although I'm using a bookmark where I'm already logged in, not logging in per se. But I can reach my account. However, I haven't gotten my email alerts (with the exception of one I got as I was typing) since yesterday.

                    Ff.net finally let me in. So now the newest chapter of ATWLB is online there and at my other archives as well.

                      So...I have the situation where my mind is overflowing with scenes for my fic (including some nice details), but when I sit down to write, I'm simultaneously overwhelmed by the enormity and frozen with worry about the minute details...

                      I can't work like this...arghh!

                        Why... Oh why?
                        Does my muse have to appear when I'm trying to do something else?

                        There I was watching an interesting documentry on Sky Arts, and an idea for something to include in a fic appears.
                        And I had to write it down. Luckily I've recorded the documentry so I can re watch it.

                          When that happens, your best bet is probably to just write out the basic scene ideas and a few notes about the details you want to include, and then at least none of them will fall out of your brain and be lost. Then you can go back and actually write the scenes with a bit less worry because at least you know that you've already jotted down the stuff you came up with. I use this method, and it seems to work quite well for me.

                          Heheh... I've had things like that happen, too. I got an entire story that way...

                            Yep, just writing down some notes is what I do too. Even if it's just something like:

                            Jack -> house -> [action] -> [line]

                            The next time I read it it jogs my memory and I can just pick up where I left off. Much better than thinking you'll remember and then being frustrated when you can't recall it the next day!

                              I just wanted to make a quick post before I go to bed. I'd been spending quite a bit of this late night working on a chapter in Broken Silence when I started listening to this music. Instead of ending a section in the chapter with what I had intended, listening to that music while writing made me come up with something far better than what I originally outlined months ago. The result was wonderfully spontaneous and poignant at the same time. I am incredibly thankful I have Murray Gold's Doctor Who series 6 soundtrack.

                                I have to admit to not having any of Murray Gold's music in my collection.
                                But that might change.

                                Music does help me write. Usually it's Enya, Clannad, The Corrs, Celtic Woman that I listen to.
                                But sometimes a little Jean Michel Jarre or Vangelis helps.
