I finally opened my file with assorted fic snippets for the first time in almost a month yesterday and reread some stuff, edited in some words to one fic, then wrote a little more on it. It was one of these self-indulgent just write a scene that comes to mind without any plans things, so I dunno if it's something I'll ever post. But I'm trying to put less pressure on myself for my writing in the hope that will bring my motivation back.

No idea how many words that was yesterday, I didn't check before i started, but just writing at all is a success.

That's the spirit! Just keep going, the words will sort out themselves eventually.

It's a great start. Editing something already there so often leads to more words--and more ideas!

I have a folder labelled 'Sock Drawer' (because that was where I kept scribbles as a kid, underneath all the socks) and put my self-indulgent stuff in there. It's fun and relaxing to write.

It really is, and it's liberating to shut up your inner critic while writing.
