What do you do when you get writers block?

Always a good question for me because it always happens to me. I try to listen to music to pump me up, at least that's what I'm attempting after being gone for over a year -_-

EDIT: Look at this. Satan Mew God THAT PERSON help us. Thank goodness this was back in '00...

Wow, that was epic. I guess I'm going to hell then. Lol, demonic forces, I like that.

Not sure about you guys, but it isn't so much about writer's block, I more or less know what I want to write about, and want to finish writing it (like my chapter) but don't feel like it... It is as though I have pent up energy and find it best to put it elsewhere. XD

Exactly. I know what I want to do, and how to do it, I just don't do it. I always end up on the internet or watching a movie or drawing or something. Bah.

It's not really procrastinating either, because its not like we have a deadline. XD

I guess it just is.

I have to agree, as much as I have in my mind it just does not seem to make it on paper or word. I have so many ideas, they just do not form together. It is conflicting, lol.

The same thing always happen to me. Sometimes, my best solution is to unplug the internet. Then, I'll be forced to write. However, it comes out forced if I do that. So I just wait till I feel creative, then I unplug the computer and write.

Not necessarily, procrastination means to put off something or defer from doing a task until a later time period. You don't actually need to have a deadline. There's only one universal deadline which is death.
XD

Ah just the putting off aspect then, makes sense.

Yeah... that pesky deadline of death. XD

Not that I'd want to be immortal either.

Anyone wanna write something on pink, fluffy bunnies (OF DOOM)? I have officially lost my sanity.

Wouldn't your fan-fic characters really rather have a Buick? (This is a question about their preferred mode of transportation, BTW)
My oneshot will convey my answer. I do not own anyone. This is from Moe Scyzlak's POV (yes, The Simpsons). Set in limbo.
How much would your character score in an IQ test?
They would all be average, 'cept for the super-smart ones.
What do you do when you get writers block?
I read. And sleep. Namely, I do a multitude of activities. Most common is bashing my head against the keyboard while saying, "Why me?"

People Drive Like Spazzes​

They're at it again.
Of all the customers I ever had, the Trainer-Ranger combined group is very susceptible to chaos. I know. I've seen it. And with the sole OC in the Trainer group, Dianne, being a trouble magnet, well...
Let's just say I've taken to wearing a helmet when she's doing mischief.
Sorry. Didn't introduce myself. Moe Scyzlak, The Simpsons character, bartender of Coffeehouse. You'd think a cafe would be more peaceful than a bar. Well, if you mix Pokemon, Power Rangers, The Simpsons and other shows (and the films, and books and the occasional OC), you've got a recipe for disaster.
This day isn't different.
Because, right now, Dianne, Ash and Ziggy Grover have commandeered poor Tommy Oliver's Jeep. And, yes, Tommy is currently tied up. And, yes, he is struggling against his bonds. And, yep, Ziggy's holdin' the poor fella down. No, they aren't kissing.
I watch as they scratch America's new Toyota, with England driving.
And, of course, subjected to an irate England's potty mouth. Even worse than Barney when drunk.
Then suddenly...
Dianne braked. Ziggy screamed. Ash ducked. Tommy struggled.
BOOM!
Oh, God. Not my car. Not my car. NOT MY CAR!!
"WHAT THE H*LL IS WRONG WITH YOU?! YOU CRASHED TOMMY'S JEEP INTO MY NEW BUICK!! DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH THAT FREAKING THING COST ME?!"
"Well, excuuuuse me." Dianne. I will kill her.
Tommy's finally wriggled free. "My Jeep..." he moans.
I will kill them. I will kill they who are responsible for the destruction of my beloved Buick.​

I full on laughed when I read that. That was super awsome!

Sometimes when I get writer's block, I reread the part I'm up to in Twilight (cease those insults Twi-Haters XD) since my fic is kind of a rewrite of it but with my OC stuck into it.

Oh gawds, I haven't gotten the desire to write since I finished NE. I have ideas for other stories, but bleh not in a writing mood lately. I think I spent all my time and energy on that story. x_x I tried writing a Christmas one shot though for this one contest at another forum, so hopefully it'll come decent. D:

And Giratina, I watched that video a few days ago, actually. We'll all going to hell. D:

I don't remember what I answered for this question. XD;

Anyways, I would usually try different things to get inspiration like watch movies and anime, read a book, or listen to music. Later on the words just flow. :3 However, at this time I haven't gotten the desire to write like I said before. D:

Bah... So now I have to come up with a new character, one who is an aura guardian.

If I recall, in the anime series there were 4 Aura guardians

One was the guy in the past

One was with the Lucario and Ash

And wasn't there a duo of a guy and girl Aura guardian?

Guys, I actually finished the prologue of my new fic which is a remake of TCNG! XD
Now I'm writing the first chapter and I'm waiting for a suitable time to post the prologue. XD

D: *Curls up in corner due to actual phobia of going to hell and doomsday(nothing to do with 2012)*

Just thought I'd share that with you guys. XD (for inspiration... ummm yeah...)

Also, now that I've been cured of examitus, I hope to write something soon... If anything, finish a 3rd chapter before the start of the next semester...

I think the last bit you're talking about Damos and Sheena from the movie Arceus and the Jewel of Life (great movie, by the way :3 ). And no, they're not Aura Guardians. They are just able to go through Pokemon's hearts and tame their emotions. They don't have the aura powers like Ash and Lucario.

As for your next post...I actually don't like that song. D:

Mizan, oh cool. Hopefully I'll be able to find the time to review it.!

Haa, that's actually pretty epic, Feign.

Hmmm no I wasn't referring to them... But I could have made that mistake, I just thought then that there were more than 3 aura users (Ash, past guy, and present guy).

Indeed it was. :D

Lots of cuties in there too! XD

No, I'm pretty sure only three have been mentioned. And has Ash even shown any signs of Gary Stu powers Aura powers since that movie?

Or wait . . . what happened in the Spiritomb episode again?

I think in that spirit tomb episode, they just mentioned an aura guardian with a pikachu long past, though I don't think he used his powers there, and somehow or rather resolved the situation with his friends.

The only latest episode that I can recall with him using his powers is when that Lucario (or whatever the smaller one is called) is kidnapped.

My fic is around the first aura guardian's appearance thing (that movie). I'd have to watch it again to verify the year they mention.

Ah, the one where Riolu got kidnapped was a special episode, and thus considered only barely canon.
