AAAAAAAAAAAAAHRG!  
Okay, I think I've just decided that I can't write, and that despite having an awesomely cool idea for a story, I am completely incapable of doing justice to said story's awesomeness, and really, I should just give up, crawl into a hole and die - ridding the world of my unhelpful, stupidly annoying lack of ability.


RARG!

Instead, as it is the story I created, I will continue to write it, even though it's SHIT, knowing that if someone else cooler than me wrote this story they could make it SO MUCH BETTER, and hope that the characters will forgive me for doing such a bloody poor job of it. *flails and stomps*

Meanwhile, because I've been hiding from writing due to the above reasons, my brain has reverted to it's old ways of hitting me upside the head with entire new storylines when I least expect it. I came up with a whole new story the other day - in a three part series form, but the only problem is that it's a FUCKING ANIME (or manga)!

No no, seriously, this story _cannot exist_ in written form, it HAS to be visual and I JUST CAN'T DRAW THAT WELL! *weeps* Because I'm a sad, sad individual with no time and no ability, I'm thinking of just sending the whole plot sypnosis off to some anime company somewhere and seeing if they'll take it off my hands, just because I can't deal with having his kick-ass story and not being able to do anything with it. The downside is, well, *pets story* it's miiiiine, I don't want anyone else to write it and I doubt Random Anime Company (even if they did accept the sypnosis,) would be interested in some random english person writing the scripts for them. *flails again* I suppose I should say this even though it won't work out like that because nothing in life works out like that, but if anyone is or knows someone with professional (or near professional) level artistic ability who might be interested in co-oping this project with me, I would be more than thrilled. (It's het, too, so you can ask your straighter friends as well. :/)

Anyway, I'm a little bummed about that, but also stoked to have come up with a new concept, I just wish I could do something with it ;_;

So yeah, I'm off to write badly, and maybe catch up on the stupidly large amounts of txts, emails and comments I'm behind on. @_@

PAGE. DO NOT BEAT YOURSELF UP LIKE THAT. It's not about naturally being slick and fly at writing. It really, really isn't! You know this! Plus, like personally, I love when I find something written badly because then I'm motivated to write my own take on it. Plus, writing is so schizo, one moment you'll read over your stuff and think "i am so awesome" the next it's "wtf why do i even bother11!!" and really, it'll probably work out better than you think!

omg...find a partner in crime who can draw awesome. D:

But mimei-san, it's Dry My Tears; I just can't make it evil enough. It's not fair! Every time I try to make it evil, I end up making it flippant. Flippant! As if the things I'm writing about are a big joke, which they're not. Not!!!! And it's not even _good_ flippant with the funny and the hey this is good, it's lame flippant with the Harry just got raped but I just can't seem to make him freak out enough. Which is mildly understandable because if I had him freaking out as much as he could then the story wouldn't progress but it's confusing and multi-layered and hard and I can't take the idea of making this story LAME!!!! GAAAAH! (I have been watching too much Buffy and now I'm reversing my sentence order a lot, sorry.)

;_; <- just for good measure.

And yes, I am a total drama queen, but so what. I'm allowed to flip out if I feel like it. >:[ *glowers at anyone who yells at drama queens*

I wish I could find an awesome partner in crime. Doing a manga seriously would be fantastico. (Also, this idea is so cool, I must share it with the world. Whether the world likes it or not! Mwahahahahaha!!!)

ahhh, i see what you mean (from that part i read and stuff)...rape if fucking hard to write, especially the aftermath...i think if helps to read other authors who pull it off...k&k WYWM, they do it pretty damn well. because it's an extreme assault on someone....it needs an extreme (but not like extreme emo) reaction...yeah

*hugs*

sure you're allowed to flip out~ don't let me stop you.

it really would :( i can't help you there though.
