Well, today decided to start off on a positive note, with a vicious stab from my subconscious. I had a dream that I was a serial killer! An extremely Val McDermid serial killer who told my victims in graphic detail what I was going to do to them, and all the while my writing-brain was making it all colourful and detailed and GHASTLY and the rest of my brain was freaking. the fuck. out.
(Note about me: I can't stand representations of graphic violence, or any sort of torture. I used to be able to. And then that one episode of S1 Spooks gave me fucking PTSD or something, because ever since watching it I really really REALLY can't deal with watching or reading about the malicious infliction of pain.)
FANTASTIC, thanks, subconscious.
Still on the topic of weird things my brain has done without my consent: apparently the best way to work sneakily around writer's block is for your brain to start narrating the events of the story from an entirely different character's point of view, told as rambling flashbacks that occur throughout a sex scene.
I --
I don't even know.
(I tried not to write it down. I tried very hard. It's not a story, it's RIDICULOUSNESS IN PARAGRAPH FORM. Though the fact that I don't intend to SHOW it to anyone means that wow, apparently I can write some seriously filthy stuff, who knew.)
I think all this studying is doing something worrying to my poor little grey cells.
Off to do some more of it, then :D

haha, jk. But um... the fact that you say one episode of television has put you off all graphic violence/torture makes me want to never see that episode. Except not, because it actually makes me want to look up that episode and watch it more. Which just goes to show how intelligent the human race is right there.
p.s you taunt us by saying you have written incredibly filthy things and that you're not going to show anyone in the same sentence

(Heh. If it actually goes anywhere as a story I may clean it up a bit and post it, but at the moment it's just me fleshing out what's going on behind the scenes of Manor House. So that I know how to write Eames and Ariadne at any given moment.)

This is actually my go-to writing-sex-scenes method! Except it only really works if I am at least 98% convinced that I really won't show it to the internet, because if I know that I'm just tricking myself into writing, the trick doesn't really work.
Which is by way of saying, you should totally show it to us.

Also, if I start believing that it will be seen, I will have to make it...cohesive. And not just random little snippets of nothingness. And I'm not about to start putting my cohesion-effort into anything other than the fic I am MEANT to be writing.
