mugenmineBig Brat: Day 32
Chapter 4: +603
Total 7731
I've become rusty at this it seems. It gets down to two things. I suck at starting things and writing about sexy-times is hard. This is where the rubber meets the road, to use an idiom I've never wanted to use before. Finally gotten the two protags moving forward and starting something, but it's been hard getting into the rhythm of sexy-times and power shifts... which is oddly appropriate. But again, round one is action and positioning, with dialog and bits of headspace. Since Sherlock is doing most of the moving about at this point, my focus is on him, though I need to get the focus back on John watching Sherlock as the POV is his, so a perspective shift will eventually need to be had.
I swear to God I'm going to have to break this shit up into two chapters. I can't have a massive porn dump. It's not even really a porn dump yet, but I think I have a breaking spot, then an amp up, then a close, which means that five chapters may turn into six as I start to start deep diving into detail. I may <--- read will have to get out the weed whackers if this chapter gets out of control. But anywho, I'm hoping that once this gets going it will pick up some momentum.
Unhappy with the lay of the story land at the moment and my writing skills in general. I chalk it up to my monkey moods and my uninteresting and not unique moments of writing self-doubt, which will pass once I read that sentence over again. Because seriously it is part of the journey but not to be dwelt upon if any progress is to be made. Story sucks, whatever moog, make it better and don't fixate on it. We have the power to rebuild you, yo.
