Writer's block is a... myth.I suck. I have writer's block and haven't written a word.
Well actually, Writer's block is a state of mind brought on from poor planning, stress, fatigue and a general lack of ideas. I'm not saying anyone who gets writer's block is stupid because I get it frequently but the point is that it's real, in a way...Writer's block is a... myth.
Just apply yourself. Sit down, start randomly typing something that sounds good but you know is ********, and before you know it you'll have a direction to take it. Just try, and if anything you'll have something to post for us to read and enjoy.
I'm letting the character carry the theme of time in my piece. The ending is the breaker/maker, so we'll see how I present it.
I didn't mean to say it was completely made up, but it is a typical excuse used by people that think not being able to come up with an idea after five minutes is a complete writing-killer. It's not. Writer's block is a combination of things, like you said, and as long as you have any one thing (an idea, inspiration, the drive, or a way to spin words), than the others will come.Well actually, Writer's block is a state of mind brought on from poor planning, stress, fatigue and a general lack of ideas.

Looking good. I'm always up for a good ghost story if it's presented in the right way, and Pokemon has some great ghosts, both Pokemon and legend, to work with.Also, I'm doing something like a Ghost story. (kind of) I'll post the first paragraph here for you guys to enjoy first. It's a but cliche but don't worry that's not the main focus of the story.
I haven't fixed it yet so expect mistakes:
Spoiler:Weather forecasts for that night predicted heavy rain and violent thunderstorms. The storm was destructive enough to cause property damage and as such had been labeled as a sudden tropical typhoon. It had come as a surprise to most meteorologists who had predicted a warm summer that year. The storm materialized directly above the Hoenn region spanning tens of kilometers and caused shelf clouds to appear at the borders. Travel was impossible in between the Mainland and the Hoenn Islands and most flights or boats were grounded that night. The Hoenn region was completely cut off from surrounding regions. Even the phone lines and satellite telecommunication were disrupted completely due to some form of electromagnetic disturbance.
Sinnoh. It has Cyrus. And solovino, your sig is floating. I can't read your post!
Weirdness has kicked in... the sig was CSS-tested long ago and I even took advantage of a small detail in the CSS spec to make sure it wouldn't flow off-limits. If cleaning your cache doesn't help, then someone has been messing around with the code of the PC forum system... or worse, you're using IE.
Gonna have to agree here.solovino's sig looks fine to me as well. I'm using Firefox, and I don't believe that anything has been screwed around with involving PC.
What is your favourite region in the Pokemon Universe to write in? Or do you come up with an entirely new non-canon region or city?
Johto and the Orange Islands. I lean more toward the Orange Islands though, only because of how little they are seen in fics.
Agreed. It's a bit off centre than usual.Also, Solovino's sig is a bit off-center, but otherwise just fine.
