I Broke My Brain
May. 8th, 2012 05:25 pmSo I am going on hiatus. Until September.
I know September seems like a really long time away, and it is. So let me start at the beginning.
Remember how back in March I injured my fingers and couldn't write for a few weeks? So I did a lot of reading instead? Well when I could write again I did. I took a lot of notes and worked on stories. I don't know if it was too much or what, but I seriously think I broke my brain. I didn't read a single page during the month of April. I haven't written anything in weeks. There was a whole week in there where I couldn't even watch TV. And I'm still struggling with all of those things, though TV is a bit easier now.
I've already dropped all of my big bangs, which actually had nothing to do with not being able to write, so I'm not obligated to write anything at the moment except for a fic I promised for Rainbow Support. So this means, in the next few months, it's very unlikely that anything will be posted except for the Rainbow Support fic, and a big bang fic that's already finished and I'm just waiting for a posting date on.
So why am I taking so much time to recover? Because I've decided to do both months of Camp NaNoWriMo. One is in June and the other is in August and I'd like to focus on just them.
This doesn't necessarily mean that nothing at all will happen. I still plan on taking notes for fic ideas that won't leave me alone, and if something happens to get written then it does. This basically just means that I'm not going to push myself to write any fic. I really want to focus on my original stuff for Camp NaNo, but for at least the month of May I just want to give my brain a break. I'm slowly coming out of this slump and I just don't want to push myself.
For those who are hoping for some of my fics to read, I'm sorry. They will still happen. Just not now. Same for Forbidden Love. I know how that series ends and it will end!! I promise.
