PEOPLE. I want to write PORN. Where is my PORN MOJO? What is WRONG with me?

I mean, I have the hot-ass woobies--





See? HOT ASS.

--And I have a three day weekend, and there is a weaponry challenge going on for flashfic (guns! knives! hotness!) and and and and--

No porn. GRAR. What is the problem here??? Fraser! Ray! Fucking! GET WITH THE PROGRAM, BRAIN.

*sigh*

[On a different note, the weaponry thing is reminding me about when I first wrote How Many Things, like, uh, a year and a half ago, I had originally meant for one section to involve Fraser and Ray teaching the kid to shoot. Because I imagine she would learn quite young, and be completely comfortable around guns. Only I never wrote it, because, you know, I never learned how to shoot, and thus didn't really feel I could do anything with a scene like that, because what the hell do I know. Anyway.]

In conclusion: Fraser sucking Ray's cock, the end.

What can I do to help? I also encourage F/K/V porn (you've been talking about that too, right? Or is that just me projecting) and all other due South type porn.

Help them fuck, pearl, come on! You can do it!

Hmmm. Frasier sucking Ray's cock from Ray's POV or Frasier's?

I say the sucker's pov, since it gives you the opportunity for more smell and taste. ;)

Learning to fire a gun isn't hard. Really, the age issue for learning how comes down to intelligence and size. If she was average sized for her age, then she could learn to fire a small caliber rifle between age 9 and 12. .22 caliber rifles don't have any more recoil than a BB gun, so she could handle it. Firing a 12 gauge shotgun, on the other hand, requires a lot more upper body strength - I'm too small and my joints are too bad to be able to do it, although if I absolutely had to fire a shotgun, I would shoot from the hip (less joint trauma, better grounding at the center of gravity).

The freakiest thing about firing a pistol is that you're holding an explosion in your hands (pull the trigger, hammer goes down, firing pin goes in, gun powder explodes, shell casing pops out as bullet exits barrel). Your body absorbs the shock, so it's very hard on your wrists, elbows, and shoulders, and your hands go numb with tingling. I'm told that firing a shotgun is similar, except for the kick of the gun into your shoulder when you fire. Bruises after burning through a lot of rounds are normal.

You want my no-fail technique for breaking through "writer's block"? Which, actually, is a fiction in itself--you can prove it by getting hired to write something and having a deadline. When there's a check in the offing, writer's block seriously doesn't exist. But for those times when you're just spinning your wheels and the words just won't come, you can do this:

Sit down and start writing ANYTHING. Shopping list, letter to Mom, list of Due South-related nouns and verbs, whatever. It doesn't matter. After a few mintues you'll find yourself actually writing. Don't make a big deal out of it, worry about it, edit yourself in any way, or stop! Just keep going for a bit.

What you really want to write will start writing itself. :)

There are also some times when you really do need to do something else for a while. Taking a walk works wonders. If you're hungry and didn't realize it...eating works well, too. After you've taken care of the creature comforts, try the "just do it" exercise above and see what happens.

Another thing I find works for me is to give myself a really tough challenge or "what if" scenario involving the characters. Cause you have to start asking yourself questions, and as your mind starts to come up with answers, it starts writing the story. Like, for instance, to be really contrary, what if Fraser wants Ray (or vice versa) but one or the other of them can't get it up? Making the challenge *tough* helps a lot. Even if you don't answer it, you often get a lot of creativity out of it.

*grins* See, I know you're right in general, but I dunno. I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that I really don't miss writing for writing's sake so much; I just miss having the buzz in the back of my head. And because I'm not a writer, I don't really care about the dedication and commitment parts, which is what all the making-yourself-just-do-it is especially good for, you know? Plus, uh, the stuff I end up writing that way is always lifeless and boring. Hm.

You could visit a gun range and try it. I don't own a gun, but it's very interesting to try, and one of those "writerly experiences" that can only enrich your writing.

There's a certain smell, the burn you can get from a casing, the feel of how heavy the gun is in your hands, and the knowledge that yes, this is a weapon that can take a life, the knowledge of the history of this tool of power and defense, and the feeling of control--these are all things to try for your self, if you aren't a complete peacenik.

Um, yeah, that's my time in the Army speaking, not to mention all those gun-owning Southern ancestors...
