I've written over half the length of the story for the goblin prompt, but it's all garbage, so I need to completely start over. I picked a scene for the story that doesn't have any action, so all the characters are standing around in an empty void and bleating words at each other. So now I need to come up with a better idea that actually has some action and stuff for the characters to do so they're not doing the talking heads thing.

Ah well. Such is writing.

Don't worry, I feel the same way. I figured this was a good chance for me to force myself to write, but now I feel like I should have tried a little harder. I'm glad I actually finished the story, but the ending is super rushed and the story doesn't have as much conflict as I would have liked.

But the goal was never to win for me. The goal was to have fun. And I did succeed at that. :)
