Firstly, I'm tremendously sorry for the non-posting. Basically, a wacky combo of RL and co-modding duties kept me ridiculously busy yesterday. /o\

Today's question: What would be the best piece of advice you'd give to a fellow ficwriter? (It can be as silly or srs bizness as you want it to be. )

Tried my hand at some more comment fic (I really want to play more when fic_promptly has contest weeks, waaaaah) but I don't think it's salvagable, boooo. Still, it's words! Words are good!

My advice would be: just get some damn words out. Even if it's shitty, it will warm up your brain & remind your brain to stay in creative mode & when you've got to the point where you're churning out better stuff, then you can go back & edit out the bad bits at the beginning. But you can't edit what's not there.
