Something-Something, Witty Title

So I've been staring at my computer screen for the last few days, trying to think up where to take the fourth chapter of my long un-updated story. I have a vague idea of where I want to take it but where writing is concerned I've always been more a "seats-of-my-pants" sort of guy as opposed to somebody with a big plan and outline.

I'm starting to regret that.

Really this blog is just an attempt to get my creative juices flowing. Trying to get my brain back in order, as it were. Mainly because the usual method has been failing me so far. I know, generally, where I want the story to go from here so the plot itself doesn't feel like its the problem. Its how to get it there which is eating at me right now.

Anybody else ever have this problem? Particularly the seat-of-your-pants folks like myself? I wish there was some way to just be done with it so I could actually get back to writing. Mainly because my story obviously has people who like it, they read it for a reason, and I'm willing to bet that at least a few of them are still occasionally glancing to see if its been updated. So far, besides adding it to some groups, I've gotten nothing.

It needs an editor besides myself. A pre-reader if I can find one.

So much stuff that needs to be done and it feels like I can't even start the first step.

And then there's the part of me that feels like I'm just whining about first-world problems . . . because I am. "Oh gods help me, here in my nice house, in front of my new computer! I'm at a loss on how to spend the hours of free time at my disposal!"

In short?
