I'm feeling a bit negative this morning. My draft is awful, and it's now grown a feeble plot in addition to the awkward smut, pointless banter, and weird ranty tangents on topics that are unlikely to interest or amuse many other people. I've got... 8k, ish? Which is a lot for me, but seems to be barely half the fic. The outline is pretty substantial.
Though I keep getting waylaid by embarrassment, I intend to trudge on. Even if this thing turns out totally sucking, at least I can try to create a better emotional buildup for the few scenes I currently like. (And if all else fails, I'll scrap it and do something else. I very much want to complete this challenge.)
