Writer's block

Yes, I am still (trying) to write, but it has been increasingly difficult lately as my depression has been making me start to turn stories "dark". As in, nowhere where I wanted to go.

For example, I had written and rewritten the latest chapters of The Sensei many times, but they kept turning me towards a situation that would have had Lucy dying. Which of course is not the intention, so I would change them, and it would start to happen again.

And I ran across similar problems in Country Boy. Having George start to become hooked on hard drugs (which may or may not happen, but not at this point). So what keeps happening is that I write a chapter or two, delete it, and then try again.

I would rather wait until I can write the correct chapter, than put something out I am not happy with just to publish new content.

However, I did add onto both stories with stand alone ones, that are a tad darker. In "River City: A New Life" I finally tie in characters that have been around in the Bohica universe, but now make it more obvious who they actually are.

And another Honey Silver one, also a tad dark but where she starts to make plans to leave her career.

And yes, I am over half way through a Kim Peal Investigator one. Kind of the same. As unlike the first this one actually gets a tad dark with actual rapes (while the victim is unconscious), so it has been tricky to not go into things I simply will not write about (I find rape disgusting and horrible and never "sexy").

So yes, I am still writing. I am simply having a problem completing something that I feel is worthy to publish. And would rather delete chapters I do not like than publish them then try to make them fit when they went against the original concept of the story.
