Writing sucks. That is all. you and I are very different. I enjoy writing even if it is a lot of work. ...I was joking and trying to insult everyone in the thread simultaneously. No one cried, so I guess I failed. ): |

I got into writing from role playing, and from role playing one of the first things I learned--actually, I think someone had to spell it out to me--was that me and my character weren't the same. I then found out from experience that no matter who or what you write a little bit of you is gonna bleed over into it anyway, but that's just part of it.

I think my major problem with writing is that I sometimes find myself writing what I think I would do in that situation. Since my characters are not based on my personality, I end up having to scrap the work and approach it again only this time from the character's personality. ah! the author avatar paradox... a common writing difficulty, one even I have had trouble with on occasion. It is good to know that it is a fairly common writing problem. |

It is good to know that it is a fairly common writing problem. It's actually one of the most common. Because all our understanding and perception of things is personal and we can't actually be in the same place as another person, only try and understand what that person would feel based on our personal perception and understanding as well what we are told through communication. |

I'm currently working on this post. I've put a great deal of time and thought into it, so I hope you guys have enjoyed reading it.
But seriously, I've been attempting to create my own comic. I'm only on issue 2, but I have plans ready for 3-4 volumes.

I'm not really working on anything now that I canned Civil War but I did write a script some time ago for a movie called "The Black Hood".I had to do it for a creative writing course I took in college.Sadly my harddrive crashed and I lost all traces of it.Luckily I based some of the script on people and events I know so It wouldn't be hard to rewrite it.

When I work on something I'll go far with it, then I'll get another idea and put the other one aside, then it happens again. I just get continues amounts of ideas, then leave them for newer ideas. I need to sort that out. Good thing is I write them down so I can actually go back to them.

Like recently, I got an idea from watching Let the Right One In I was writing that for a while then I got an idea to do a Avatar: Last Airbender fan-fic. Guess what...I got an idea from yesterday to do a Superman Film fan-fic. I'M CURSED!!! |

The term fan-fic seems so demeaning to me.

Fan's fiction. Why?

Fan fics to me are what prepubescent teens write on their off time. If I'm writing a story, whether the characters are of my creation or not, I see it and want it to be seen as no less than a piece of prose than it is. I take what I do much too seriously to have it written off as merely something a fan wrote.

Not a fan of fan-fics either, but mostly because they suck. Then again 90% of everything sucks, so you take what you can get. When writing, I tend to shy away from fan-fics, too, simply because I don't like taking another person's creation and using it as my own. Even if I'm using a loose concept of something, I prefer to create my own set of rules, characters, and storylines for it.
However, I kinda feel like I'm a hypocrite for saying I don't like fan-fics because that's exactly what comics are: using someone else's creation, adding on to it, tweaking it, occasionally re-writing it, etc. Even if I do break into the comic writing world, I'd prefer to use my own stuff rather than write on to an already existing universe.

I choose the 8BT way of fight scenes, in other words I don't write any.
