Fanfic Guh

[shipperx]

I'm stuck and it's not funny. I have the rough draft of Chapter Six, but I'm not happy. I'm just not happy. And I've already been unforgivably slow with the chapter.

Why is fanfic sometimes like pulling teeth? I am pea green with envy of the fanfic writers who seem to effortlessly produce in timely fashions. I can't seem to do that. I struggle. I have problems hammering it into shape. I hate what I've written because it simply doesn't sound right. Guh. And it's not that I don't have the chapter written, it's that I've re-written the opening conversation five times now. And I know I have to rewrite the fight scene and the end of the chapter.

Sigh. Wish I was better at this. . . and faster.

Why won't this chapter write itself? ::grumble, grumble::

::sheepishly:: It's not even an important conversation (or even a particularly important chapter). It's just banter. (And yeah, I plan to post it soon. I just need to rearrange the fight scene and introduce the Victorian Watcher a bit sooner. It's easier to convince him that Buffy IS the Slayer when she's in action rather than Buffy and Spike continuing to claim that she's 'Slayer from the future' (and yeah, they're both aware of how absurd that sounds. )
