illyria_novia's link to Write or Die, I managed to cough up ~300 words in 20 minutes and this is the result. I cheated a bit though. The original, on-the-spot snippet that I did was not quite fit for public posting so I tweaked it here and there. No idea where this is going and concrits are very much appreciated!
Sam and Dean, gen, 300 words.

Muse, where *are* you muse?
Apr. 30th, 2008 09:56 pmSomeone gave me feedbacks yesterday for a couple of fics that I wrote almost three years ago which made me ridiculously and giddily happy. Mostly because I didn't think anyone would read anything that far back, and it was just, you know, totally unexpected. Hee, and apparently she liked them too :D
So, anyway, I took a look at those fics because I've quite forgotten what they were about, and I was like, did I really write those? Not that they're masterpieces or anything, but except for some drabbles here and there, and maybe a couple of short ficlets, I could hardly write anything now. Gosh, I'm having trouble stringing two sentences together and there I was, writing stories, with plots mind you, and they were more than 1000 words long. I was awesome! ( tongue firmly in cheek of course *g* ). It was like I was somebody else then.
I'm writing something with a friend, and it was started more than a year ago, but I'm stuck, I'm stuck. I looked at it the other day but the muse is just -- gone. But I will get to it. One of these days. Soon. Ish.
I think the main problem is ( not that it's exactly a *problem* ), there are so many good stuff to read, and I can't concentrate on writing when my mind keeps going to that fic or verse or epic or WIP. So I guess I'm just more of a reader than a writer. It's just that when I look at my old fics, it feels like - could I ever write again?
*sighs*

Writing exercise
Apr. 18th, 2007 10:31 pmA little while back i_o_r_h_a_e_l started this little writing exercise :
Am doing these writing activities to find out if they're easy enough for the students/users of our books. The activities are taken from the book Discovering the Writer Within: 40 Days to More Imaginative Writing. So I'm going to need 40 days for this.
Day 1
Begin writing, starting with the four words below. Write quickly, without thinking too much about what you want to say before you write it. Write for ten minutes. Time yourself.
When I write, I ...
She's now at Day 4 :
Pick a person and freewrite about him or her for ten minutes. Start anywhere, perhaps his voice, or your first impression of her, or how your relationship has changed through the years. Anywhere. You are an artist doing a quick thumbnail sketch with words. Let your pen do the remembering.
Her/His name is ...
I can't resist joining in her little exercise.
His name is Sam And Shinta did a companion piece His name is Dean :)
