Original Stuff

Genres: Fantasy, Historical Fiction, Historical Fantasy, and possibly parody and satire. Oh and school papers - obviously nonfiction and mostly on history.
Types: Novels mostly, but what I've been doing for the most part lately is world building. It's quite fascinating. I have multiple stories in various stages of being created. I hope to work on one this summer and do another one for this year's NaNoWriMo.

Currently my main problem with deadlines and getting things done is the fact that school is eating me and I'm having trouble with deadlines there. I have multiple papers overdue and I need tons of damn help with this because it's scaring me and I can't fail these classes. I also keep getting urges to write fanfic, but I don't know what to do for the most part for inspiration. I have a few ideas for Final Fantasy VII fanfic, but I need to replay the game to check something and my copy is in storage which makes me a sad puppy. And all this school stress and my sleep schedule being off kilter has just made it nigh impossible for me to do almost anything!

I'm signed up to do writing for [community profile] parthenon for one of my original worlds and I can't find the energy to write any of the prompts and I'm also involved in [community profile] musing_way where I have way too many muses and I get ideas on how to respond to prompts, it's just somewhere the translation is getting lost.

Oh and I signed up for [community profile] ff_exchange as well and I have a fic that's long overdue that I promised to someone.

And on top of all of that, I actually have never really had people beta my work because I am chronically shy and afraid of asking for help

So help?
