...writing filler is even more boring than reading it. WHY CAN'T I STOP.

..oh yeah, because I don't know where the plot goes next. And because I'm worried that I won't have enough story to hit 50k.

...it's still boring as fuck to write.

Just keep repeating: "Filler is a necessary evil... filler is a necessary evil..." until you believe it! You know what's annoying too -- when you know with absolute certainty that at some future date you are going to rip out everything you've just written. I think of it as place-holder copy.

I suppose I will take comfort in that... I'm basically think that I'm writing a 50,000 word outline or abstract - and I'll turn it into a real story later.
