Why is it so hard to write what I'm supposed to be writing?
I'm five pages into an eight- to ten-page paper that's due tomorrow for my Creative Writing class. Only the grad students have this assignment. The topic: our personal theory/aesthetic of fiction, what we think fiction should do and how we try to do it.
I've got three and a half pages drawn from Lewis' "On Stories" and "Sometimes Fairy Stories May Say Best What's to Be Said" and Tolkien's "On Fairy-Stories." I don't know how I'm going to fill the rest with my own blather.
Oh, wait, I've found another block quote. That'll help. :D
