I have finally determined what is wrong with my writing lately. While I do get some plotbunnies, I have problems working them out. Every time I start a fic, I end up abandoning it after one or two paragraphs, or I finish it and abandon it after the beta. Most things that I write down just don't feel right. It's chunky and the writing style is jarring, which means that when Julie betas she ends up having to shred it to pieces.
I think the fault lies with me overthinking everything. I'm not sitting down and writing what comes to mind. I'm second guessing every word, every sentence, that I write down. Instead of feeling what it is I'm putting to paper, I'm thinking what I should write down. My head is not in touch with the rest of me, which leaves me with a fic that is disconnected.
Translation; don't hold your breath for the Cally/Lee fic.

I can't believe I forgot to the list that of course the Lord of Kobol are goa'uld (
lyssie and I have had many a discussion about this already). They possibly were even Tok'ra that got tired and took its own humans to play with. Then they got all power hungry, the 13th Colony ran off and a bit later the other Colonies left as well (after their own rebellion?).
OMG, need to go play the game again.
