I'm supposed to be writing on my UKISS vampire AU. And I'm stuck. I'm stuck because I hate the plot for the next two chapters, and I seriously want to nix some of it but can't do so without screwing over the rest of the story. *facedesk* Anyone else ever have this happen?

Yes all the time. It sucks. You need the plot bit it's boring to write.

Zoni yeah, quite often. I hate writing when the plot is boring. Have you ever tried skipping those two chapters for the moment and writing the following ones, to go back and fill those two out when you feel the 'drive'?

Yikes. Skipping ahead? No way. All of my stuff is written in order. Though I'm seriously considering starting another story just to get my mind off things.

Well since you have an outline, it's an option... of course, you would have to go back and make sure it all flows once the other two were written. Starting another, though 0.0 If you're wanting something to take your mind off of things, what about challenges like... www.asianfanfics.com/blog/view/961336Those help me out when I am just feeling creatively blocked... |

Starting another is what I do...don't do what I do.
One then becomes a foreword demon -hides-

Outlining isn't really... the basis of my planning, though. It's a guide, but my planning is more in-depth and it's actually not really possible for me to jump around. Maybe it's my autism or maybe it's just how I've trained myself, but I need to write in order. Usually, there's just something else I need to do and I need a nudge. Though, I'll admit, I've seriously considered ditching. >_<

Okay, then I would certainly suggest either moving to something else for the time (the challenge I posted up a few posts ago helps me out at times) OR just forcing through it.

Forcing through it results in bad fan fiction... but let's face it, it's a supernatural AU so it's not exactly literary glory. I may do that. Can I just send it to the firing range instead?

Yes, yes you can. I will send my story that we spoke about to the firing range too.

They can bond while they die. So romantic.

They'll have at least a bit of comfort in one another's company as they are riddled with more holes than they already have.

I don't know if that's possible. I have UKISS's AJ as an incubus. It really doesn't get much worse than that... until you remember Kiseop is a genie.

Trying to decide whether or not that was intended as a really bad pun. Hmm. Will decide on my drive home here in two minutes.
