APYJCK Hiatus
Here’s a little update on why you haven’t received a new chapter of APYJCK.
I’m not dead. (A lot of people asked...😅)
I’ve been dealing with a lot of writer’s block for chapter 28. I’ve started it six times, changed POV three times, cut and spliced what I’ve written so many times the doc is pretty much a Frankenstein right now.
I don’t know why, but nothing is working. I’ve never been more frustrated with a chapter before. I started questioning if I even could write because everything was just garbage. Nothing was flowing and it’s all...blah.
Earlier this week, after a few hours of playing surgeon to chapter 28, I decided to see if I was having this problem with just this story or was it me in general.
I literally wrote chapter 2 of An Act of Love in three hours. It felt so freeing to actually have a story flow, dialogue that made sense and wasn’t awkward, plot progression, character development, etc. I wrote the first chapter of this fic over a year ago and it was like jumping into cool water.
All of this is to say, APYJCK will be going on a hiatus. I’m going to focus on my other two fics for awhile and give this story a little break. (Like, until end of Jan maybe mid Feb)
Don’t worry, I’m not going to drop it. I’ve invested too much time to stop halfway. I just need a breather. I don’t want to write feeling all of this frustration. It’s reflects in my work and it’s just not productive. I don’t feel right uploading content I don’t feel 100% about.
Anywho, for all who made it this far in my breathy explanation, thank you for understanding. I really appreciate everyone who reads my stories. I won’t keep you waiting for too long. Promise!
All the love in the world,
