I am writing a screenplay about fantastical fucking on a Caribbean island, and I keep having to stop to jerk off to my research materials.

That is a good sign, they tell me.

i've grown to totally abhor creative writing. i still enjoy meaty researchy stuff with lots of facts.

It's coming out well.

I am lost.

House music is trying to save me.

Save me, house music.

Take a walk, breathe. Do something different with your hands.

let's swap jobs, you can come and write tedious government policy for a while, then you'd love to go back to your feature i'll bet

God, I'm such a fucking pseud. I'm off to drink more wine.

bah, it's better for you.

I still love writing! The process of pitching and searching for agents, now there's the problem.

It's amazing, with all that CIA work, that you still manage to play professional baseball.

It's a strange world.

i know i know i'm a fucking baby....two 12+ hours days at the office are making me grumpy....i've been making a bit more progress in the last half hour.

it's not so much the writing as the deadlines, i guess.

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Wednesday, 17 November 2004 05:21 (twenty-one years ago)

If I can't clean my writing area sometime soon, I shall NEVER WRITE AGAIN!

I tend to actually get shit done under deadline - left to my own devices, I slump around w/ my hand down my pants (not in a sexy way, ladies) & get eff all done.

i don't "write" ... i "draft."

I am writing a sort of Christmas thing for a Bangkok shopping centre, and I just used the word "Metrosexual" ...i always swore I'd never do that.

I kinda hate writing lately, too, but it's not writing's fault. I blame my boss. Everything I write, he's like, "This is boring. It needs more cliches." (Well, he doesn't actually say that.) I write ad copy that pretends to be magazine articles. It's fucking depressing.

..writing "Seriously, fuck!"

A 5000 word feature should take more than two days.

yeah im bored of writing too. maybe cos i leave it so last minute but fucking hell, im bored of it. im worried its too readily apparent in what i write too. it doesnt help that sometimes i read other peoples stuff and wonder how they still appear to have their inspiration. i think i want a full time boring job and then i can have some hours left to do writing and appreciate it more. thats also cos writing pays shit money though.
