"I'm slowly chipping at the shackle"

So I've been feeling more than a little guilty as well as creatively blocked because I have 3 WAY overdue VGY fics. The main one causing the block is an LoZ fic. I kept saying I'd write one day, I'd write this day. This day for sure... but of course that wasn't getting me anywhere.
Last night, for reasons I suppose only my subconscious will ever understand, I decided to make myself a note. Courier New font at 26 pt, with key words in red. I made this note and left it as the open window before turning off my monitor. This morning, having forgotten the note, the first thing I see is a list of three things (one being optional) I absolutely must do before I fall asleep as I'm wont to do in the afternoon. The first was hang up some clothes that had been all over my treadmill. The second was write at least one paragraph for previously mentioned fic. The last, (which is optional) was answering the DQ in class today. Since it's optional, I'm opting to leave it for later. ^^ But, I did manage the first two things on the list. Actually, the one paragraph has turned into a semi-strong opening for the whole fic, and is more than just the one paragraph. Not finished. No way is finished, but once something is started, finishing it becomes a bit easier. So that fic will be done fairly soon, though I won't commit to an exact date. That will leave 2 others that I think I'll have a slightly easier time writing.
I wonder if I can psyche myself out for the other unfinished fics I have sitting around?
