some nightly self-pity 2 months ago

There’s some weird reason why ideas and thoughts and templates and patterns I like only come to my mind in English. Maybe the language itself makes those creations of mine sound smart, witty and reasonable, I feel as if I become a different person, a person I like, someone I will or would like to become one day.

See, my problem with writing is that I don’t have a story to tell. One of my secret life aspirations is to become a writer, not only a writer, but someone who is good at their job. I love the idea of creating alternate universes, mingling different concepts, using different stylistic devices to make my point… My fingertips burn up but then I remember that everything worth reading has already been written. At that moment I flick over the things I’ve already written and suddenly the excitement is gone. I mean, why bother?

Still, however, when I come across an article or a blog entry pursuing some creative ambitions, I tell myself that I could do it better.

Well, sometimes I really really think that I could. And maybe my real problem is that I never really sit down and write.

mustlovestories bored... *sigh*

ok… chill out.
you’ve got to think of it this way: no one will EVER ever write like u do, because no one
can be u. r u following me?
its sort of weird, but my best friend told me that when i was in a writer’s depressiong similar to urs, i wanted to write but i was so certain that my idea was predictable and any other writer could do better, until she told me that, which basically says that any other writer couldnt do better because the idea isnt even THEIRS.
i sincerely hope that this will help u rather than drag u down deeper. good luck!
