I'm usually on, but I generally only post when I have something to say or when there's a conversation running.
It might be exam week for a lot of people. I'll be on a lot more next week when finals are over and I'm at home.
I'm like that off and on, but sometimes I just post something to try and get a conversation of *any* kind going.

Motivation...usually what gets me motivated is to get myself as much into a story as possible without actually writing. I like to sketch characters, listen to music that reminds me of the story, look at pictures of scenery/daily life that's similar to the setting (or actually is the setting, if you're writing a real-world story)--basically anything low-key to get me excited about the story and its characters again. Then I usually find it easier to get back to writing.

Hey everyone!
How's it going?
*sighs* You ever have an idea that you want to write only you can't seem to start it?

That's happening to me all the time these days, Ely. I'm on holidays, so I planned for this whole writing fest, but the only time I seem to be able to actually write is past 10 o'clock at night. :S

Isn't it horrible?
I have this idea for a YA contemporary horror and I can see the characters and the setting and everything that I want to happen in my head but I can't seem to write it all down.

I have been, but a friend and I were watching Matilda, and now I'm going to go pack and go to bed so I can be ready to go as soon as my cousin gets here tomorrow. ...I probably won't be around a whole lot the next few days, since I'm going out of town. In case I don't get a chance tomorrow..... Bye guys! Have a fantastic weekend! 
ETA And my cousin is late, which is good because I'm not ready yet.

Welcome back! How's it feel?
So strange. I think Harry Potter says it best with the lines:
It feels more like home than it did during Thanksgiving break. Then I felt like a visitor in my own house. This time I realize that I'm staying for a month and I feel more at home.
