Occasionally, you know, I think my problem is -- now and then, I want to write really big, really dramatic!, really sharply-in-my-head scenes ... without the benefit of all the buildup. Sometimes, I don't WANT to write the 6000+ words that will lead to a certain exact scene where I can use the specific turn of phrase I have in my head; I don't want to wait.
I like my instant gratification, damnit! :<
This gets especially bad when I start reading/looking around in new fandoms -- because then there's just this whole GLUT of THINGS I WANT TO PLAY WITH! but at the same time, there's that whole "but this is a new fandom, do I know what I'm talking about no I don't, shut up me" that happens. Dramatic moments (I find) work better if they're built up to, buuuut ...
Sometimes, I just want the flash and the bang and the rabbit leaping out of the hat, and skip the hocus-pocus wand-waving beforehand.
--this message brought to you by: it's Friday, it's two hours (maybe) till my weekend, and the fact that I am entirely lame and nearly two years after a friend lent me the volumes I started reading Tsubasa and fell harder and faster than I thought I would. T______T
Also, the letter R. As in, "arrrrrrrgh."
