[writing] Eden + Carla = Failure

I've been trying to write for the past hour, since I got home from work. So far I have four different beginnings to a ficlet about Eden (from Blue Crush) in the morning, and not one word out of any of the beginnings is any good.

On the other hand, I quite like Gridiron Gang, which I'm watching while I write.

On the third hand (I'm like Stitch!), I will leave for a motorcycle ride shortly.

I wish the writing was working. I just can't seem to get her voice down. Or to get into her head at all. I know exactly one thing I want to happen, and I can't seem to write it so it sounds right.

Damn.

Why don't you try writing a scene from the actual movie? Then you're not making decisions on what will happen - you're just working on getting into her head, like an exercise.

Because she does not make out with Anne-Marie nearly enough in the movie.

I may give this a try after some sleep, though. I was setting it post movie, but during movie could work, too.

Thanks.
