Writer's Block!

I hates it!

- Three stories on the back burner
- Guild notes
- SOP at work
- My manifesto on the world saving qualities of bewbies
- My manifesto to refute bewbies at being the devil
- My manifesto on manifesto's

... maybe I need to drink a little. Must buy soda to mix with rum.

Oh yeah... this one is priority, too. Glad somebody finally posted something on Alliance side concerning this event. I didn't want to do it first, since it didn't seem right to take the driver's seat.

Turen abruptly ended this storyline. It's over.

I guess I’m lucky at never having had writer’s block. I’ve got a twisted imagination that knows no bounds. My problem however, is that as I’m typing a certain thought, I’ll have another pop in to my head, and if I don’t stop right then and type at least part of it down, it’s gone, and then I’m left sitting there racking my brain trying to recover it!

A suggestion I might make, is a trick I learned in college. When you sit and start typing, don’t even think about typing complete sentences, paragraphs or what ever. Just type thoughts, points of views, ideas, random whatever. As your thesis develops, you can gradually shape the story into the proper structure. If you know how the story ends, write it first! I skip around, slowly shaping it, until I’ve created a masterpiece worthy of lining the birdcage with.

I also carry a pad wherever I go. You’d be surprised how often someone blurts out a gem of a sentence that could be worked into something later. Yesterday the VP of the company I work for said: “When something is messed up, then you know something is wrong.” It was a really stupid thing to say, but somewhere down the road, I’ll be able to use it!

Writers block does suck indeed. If I ever get it in the middle of a story, I generally finish it with, "And they all died in a horrible atomic attack."

Even on Azeroth.

I 'm having difficulty getting started. I am relativly new to RP and am having a problem with my character history. I would like to get a bio going but am not sure where to get accurate information on 1. Undead and some of their history, 2. some lore on rogues themselves, etc. I have the idea but my block is the knowledge of what is in my immediate surroundings. I guess...How do I start?

Saying the world exploded is better, imo.

And Vias? I'd say ask in the lore forums, someone would be glad to help.
