mk_tortieI don't think I ever write anything meaningful on here anymore. Or anywhere at all. I'm on a serious writer's block at the moment, apart from fanfic, (see entry from a couple of days ago). So I am just a tad frustrated. Fortunately, I've now got to the stage where I can feel the song inside me (how cheesy does that sound?!), it's just not quite ready to be written yet. So hopefully in the next few days I'll write something vaguely good. It's just taken bloody long this time around for me to be able to write anything after recording. Grr, frustrating.
In other news, I have a job. Well, two, but they're not simultaneous. First I'm going to go do 4 days cold-calling, selling training days to companies. And then I'm going to do charity fundraising, so long as I pass the training next week. I don't think that'll be too bad though, fortunately. So hooray! Although I am torn between being very lazy and not wanting to go do stressful things, and utter boring being stuck in my flat all day. Ah well, hopefully it'll be easy.
Also, I have new hair! Hooray! My camera battery has gone, or I would take pictures. But I'm too lazy to plug it in. Never mind.
Fanfiction is going.... well, surprisingly. I'm a little bit stuck on the battle scene - I'm not sure whether to include it yet (it's a flashback), or putting in a different scene. But I think I might write it now and then save it for later, so that I can revise it. That way it'll be better in the end, I guess. I've decided not to get a beta just yet. I might just get the people on OWL to say what they think, when I've written all of it/a substantial amount of it. I always get dispirited when I send the first chapter off to beta without having written a second one. So if I want this to actually get finished, it's probably not a good idea just yet!
Anyways, enough of Harry Potter. I need to find some new stuff to read, I think, and then I'll carry on writing for a bit. I don't want to get bored with it!
Hmm, actually long entry for once! :)

There's a sailor who sings
Of the dreams that he brings
From the wide open sea
Ideas will come from somewhere, in the end. :)
