The idea of writing my graduate school short story is daunting.
Seriously.
For the past couple of days i have unsuccessfully put myself under a writing schedule. Wake up. Write. Nap. Write. Dance with cats. Write. Nap. Write. Eat. Write. Sleep
I have not exactly stuck to this plan though. Not with all the christmas stuff and tv watching.
It's not that i don't have ideas. Because i do. I'm full of stories that i want to tell and write. Sometimes i get confused about the technical side of things ( 1st person, 3rd person, settings, and narrative voice) but i know the first moment i put my hands onto the keys something will come out. Something.
However i have been unable to open up Microsoft Word and type anything. My fingers seem petrified to do so.
I admit i am hella nervous about writing this story. Every time i go to put something down on paper i think "this could be the sentence that gets me in to a writing program or not". And i guess the knowledge of that is making this process a hard one.
I've going to have to put my nerves somewhere though, chanel it so it doesn't stunt me like it has.
