End of June, already?

So I was happily filling in one of the many blank spots in my KHR crossover. I was even making some good progress- you know, fun dialogue (“No need to be so formal. I mean, you've already puked all over my shoes.”) and crazy ideas but then I got distracted.

And I thought- oh hey, I'll just deal with this nice interesting plot-bunny distraction for a few minutes so that I don't lose the idea.

Yeah right!

One hour later, I’m writing 4000+ words for a completely different one-shot story (HpxFairy Tail Manga out of all things).

Which wasn't too bad.

At that time, I was actually kind of happy to write so much in one go. And then I decided that was enough writing for the day. I'd planned to finish the new-story quickly since it seemed rather easy to write.

And now here I am, one week later, still struggling to end the story. Now instead of completing one of my previous stories, I have another incomplete story on my to-do list along with so many one-shots and drabbles and deleted scenes.

I'm starting to see a troubling pattern.

Either I have a serious commitment issue and I can't seen anything to it's end.

Or I'm slowly turning in to a goldfish.

P.S. The HPxNaruto section has really grown! It's nice to know people are willing to tackle a crossover story. Of course, most of them do seem to have the obligatory so-and-so ANBU go to the Hogwarts but still...there are unique stories in all that. Now if only I had the time to read through more than just summaries.

P.P.S. I've read over and edited some of the AtO's old chapters. It's amazing how many things felt repeated while other things were just not described enough. There's no new information, just improved language and a slightly decreased word-count. I wonder what'll happen when I edit the remaining chapters.

P.P.P.S. I was contemplating an attempt at the 100 theme challenge for my old "King" story- but I wonder if I'd be able to actually go through with that.
