Kick My Ass

The writing is coming very slowly today. I really need a prod. Someone tell me what a worthless piece of shit I am.

Thanks.

It's all good, my friend. I bet if you just hang out here in the Cellar for a while, reading through the threads, you will get some great ideas. What you need is a distraction from the writing to free up you mind. Chill.

We do not need to tell you how sucky you are. You have already convinced yourself of that.

Go have sex with your girlfriend. You'll feel much better.

Perry Winkle - I think it's great that you're going through with this. You're almost finished.

Dude.

Just go do one paragraph. Can't muster that? Ok, one sentence. Just one. Take that thought, even the thought "I can't do it" and

**write it down**

on the paper. You can edit later. But you can't edit what you haven't written.

One farkin sentence. Go. Go now and write it down. I guarantee we'll all be here upon your return. Go write it.

Take a picture of your cock. After you're done laughing at the bizarre image of you doing that write down what time you did that. If you haven't written at least _________ words in ________ hours you have to email that picture to your parents, siblings, and extended family.

Get to work.

Mmm, 1500 words in one go. Smells like progress to me. Like progress and burning kittens. Erm, I mean, go me!

Anyway, I think I need to write 1500-2000 words more to say what needs to be said.

Jesus, I hate this. But it's getting done.

Deadline is Monday at 4pm. I'll finish writing by tomorrow evening, at the latest and then spend Sunday editing the paper and moving to my temporary lodging.

Thanks for the beatings/encouragement, y'all.

Very good.

Your one sentence (give or take) is REAL PROGRESS. Go repeat that progress. You've demonstrated your ability. You *can* do this, but you have to actually *do* it. Good job.

Now go repeat your success, write another sentence, or two or ten. Come back (if you must) and verify we're still here, get another cookie, etc etc. But go write again. Go.

Finished. Well, more or less. I just need to paste in my references, add one or two that I added in process, and make a few endnotes.

Thanks for the encouragement/abuse.
