Inspiration for the UnderGuide

Yes, I'm looking for yet another destraction away from my all important studies.

But I have one problem. For the first time in my life I have Writers Block. I've been unable to write my Doctor Who story for the post for months, my list of entries contains a number of partly written stories, my CAC-Continuum introduction is still unfinished weeks after I mean't to finish it.

So now I'm trying to come up with an idea to put in to the UnderGuide - and I'm struggling. I've come up with some vague ideas, but nothing good enough to get in to the guide. So I'm looking for inspiration - a vague prod in the right direction. Just something to give me something else to focus on.

Any thoughts? smiley - erm

Ah bloody hell. Yes I do. But I think they've changed policy since I started writing for the Post.

I mean I don't write when ever I want to, I have to be nice about it. But I have been fortunate in the past.

Yes, well I'm not sure what to do with that at the moment. Thats a little more long-term. I've got some large ideas floating around, nothing concrete mind but I'll wait until I've got more time to devote to it before I add to it.

In the mean time perhaps a little advertising is in order... to the post! smiley - biggrin

Yes, if Reefgirl has no qualms with us using her story to promote the UnderGuide, then that would be a very good idea. smiley - ok

My mind is elsewhere at the moment, in the UnderGuide forum.

I DO mean Fiction Central.

Why would I want fiction going to the UG?

Easiest way to rid yourself of writer's block is write/continue a different story.
