If my constant long windedness on this blog hadn't tipped you off, this will shock you: I like to write. I write a lot... stories, plays, novellas... I've made a few brief forays into poetry too, but they all turn out a lot more emo than I hope so they usually end up hidden away forever. But this evening as I was living my full and exciting life (you know... playing video games of the karaoke nature), one of my abandoned stories popped into my head. This particular story has been 1/8 written and taking up space in my mind for a while now... probably since my senior year in high school or shortly thereafter. This story is inspired partly by something that did happen to me, and partly by something that I wish would happen to me. The rest of it is inspired by the worst case scenario if I did end up getting what I wanted. So this main character is loosely based on me... she's even more like me than Wendy (a doll/character from another story of mine) or Morgan (character from my first ff). But this character is a little different than me... she isn't nearly as insecure, but she's a lot more foolhardy. The crazy whims I get and talk myself out of plague her too, but she actually follows them, and that's a big source of that worse case scenario thing playing out for her.
But anyways, whenever something I've been writing pops into my head like that, there's nothing I can do to get it to go away. Except, of course, devote the rest of my time to writing it until I get another block. Then it'll go away for months and come back at some inconvenient time.
And in other news... I'm officially a nerd, as if I wasn't already. The song stuck in my head?
