charloft Procrastination
Jun. 29th, 2009 09:00 am1. How does procrastination factor into your writing habits?
Procrastination is the reason I write. Those days you see me posting piles of fics usually means I'm not doing something else that I am dreading in RL. Most of my writing and rp in fact are done when I don't want to do something else.
2. How much does it hold you back?
Procrastination rarely holds me back. However, if I procrastination too long I'll write too much and get that blank head feeling. (You know what I'm talking about, where you feel like there are just no more words left in your head.) That usually takes a day or two to recover from.
3. What do you do to put off your writing?
Do what I'm avoiding? I like to write and write often so putting myself off from writing is a big part of motivating myself to do RL things sometimes.
4. What, if anything, do you tell yourself to turn yourself off from the writing urge?
I play a game where I allow myself to write one story and then work on what I need to do for an equivalent amount of time or one story = accomplishing one thing on my to-do list. Yes, I bribe myself and I am not ashamed of it. XD
