AAAAAA
Just for you. I've found that when I'm emotionally content, I can write more things, more often, and I'm happier with the results. I'm fine. When I'm emotionally drained, I can't write a thing.
People have said that all great writing comes from an emotional trauma. Damaged people write more chilling, more engaging, more intelligent things. But my damage rips my inspiration out of my head.
I'm thinking about writing another short story, and actually a short story. Right now I have to finish writing a paper for Haluska, but I might as well start looking for inspiration now.
Suggestions? I'm open.
Last year I thought of a story I thought would be perfect for you to write. I'll try to remember it.
ReplyDeleteWell, conflict is often damaging, but good stories usually have it. The writing usually happens after the trauma, though, not during it.
ReplyDeleteShort story... hmm. I don't think I really have the right to suggest things. Just do something you want to write.
WELL THINK MORE
ReplyDeleteOkay, but don't say I didn't warn you. I dare you: Sherlock Holmes, merman, with his trusty Watson (a crab). WITH a pipe (and sweaters), they solve the dastardliest (this should become a word) crime ever committed between sky and sand.
ReplyDeleteThis story would amuse me exceedingly, especially if you wrote it. Please?
