Losing The Finger And Working With yWriter

I just lost about half my finger in a terrible kitchen accident involving scalloping potatoes.

Just kidding. I cut the tip off, but I won't bleed to death. Pity, isn't it? It'd make a great story if I did. *wink*

Typing isn't particularly easy but I'll probably still manage to pump out hundreds of words of fan fiction. Be nice if I was that dedicated to my novel.

I haven't done a whole lot of work on Plain Jane lately. I'm working with a new software called yWriter. It's amazing. It's not like any other writing software I've seen out there, and it's FREE. Yeah, people. FREEEEEEE!

I love it. It's unlike anything out there for writers. Take a look: http://www.spacejock.com/yWriter5.html
What's to lose, right? 'Cause it's FREE!

Fanfiction.com: My Curse

I have to say that my top reason for not writing would be my serious and crippling addiction to fanfiction.com. I am not joking. I have a disease. I simply cannot stay away from that site, and it drives me frickin' crazy!
You would think that at seventeen years old I would have learned a little self control by now.

I really just love reading fan fiction. Stories about my favorite characters doing things they didn't get to do in the movies or tv shows. It's refreshing.

Is there a rehab for fan fiction junkies? No? Well, that sucks.

Does anyone have any tips on how to keep myself on track?

I could use the help...

Thanks.
