saving brain cells

Quitting is bad, right? But doing it to save your (remaining) sanity is good, yes? I hope so. It's been (technically) a week since I quit NaNoWriMo and my brain is hurting a bit less than it was last weekend. Honestly, I was firing on two brain cells and way too much caffeine. Not that I've slowed down on the caffeine since, but I don't spend my days pulling out my little bit of hair to squeeze out a story that didn't want to come. Speaking of that, I'm debating getting back into rewriting my previously publshed erotic/romantic works. I've put everything down for so long, I don't even know if I'll be able to pick it back up again - especially if it requires me to write about people with happy, fulfulling sex lives and actual relationships. Because I'm an expert on that, right? Good thing writers don't have to actually experience what they write about, or erotica writers would be few and far between. We'll see if I can put myself through the of torture writing it again.

In other news, My Harry Potter obsession has led me to create my own version of the Half-Blood Prince movie that should have been released yesterday. Yay for Power Point and hours of free time.
