So, I'm sitting here... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Rockapella722 · 06-29-2003, 01:26 AM

Yeah, so, I'm sitting here, and all of a sudden I want to write a book. I mean, like a Stephen King-sized NOVEL. Out of nowhere I want to write one. I have no plot, no characters, no setting, no storyline... but I'm gonna write a book. Or a screenplay. Whaddya think?

Did you ever have an urge to just do something like this out of nowhere?

BrandonS · 06-29-2003, 01:28 AM

Well, yes, but I lack the ability.

Rockapella722 · 06-29-2003, 01:35 AM

Me too, sadly.

vienna waits · 06-29-2003, 01:39 AM

I have urges like that, but not about writing books. I have urges go buy pens (for my pen fetish) or rearrange my room, or make a website. i never carry through w/ the website things.

fr00ti · 06-29-2003, 01:40 AM

Yeah, actually I started writing a book the other night.... but I never wrote anymore...

It was sucky tho.

Me two!

I tried that once. At the time I was in 5th grade, the Donkey Kong Country series were very popular, so I brought a notebook and wrote a really good story (from a 5th grader's point of view anyway

) based on the DKC series for the Super Nintendo. I lost the notebook and haven't seen it since.

well hey

good luck with that I WRITE all the time but I go through periods where I get writers block
WHAT helps me though is watching one of my favorite Movies or watching something with Erik in it for inspiration
maybe that will help for you as well

I have an obsession with feather pens.

I get the urges to make websites.. I usually try and let it pass because I know Ill never keep it up.

webuster · 06-29-2003, 11:23 AM

I kinda hate that urge sometimes- cos when I plan to write the book, I know at the start how I want it to end, so then in the middle of writing when I lose the urge to write, I put it away for a while, then start writing again- then i feel like I HAVE to finish the story, so the writing isn't good cos I'm trynna bluff my way thru it all. I'm a bit better with screenplays, and can easily write a tv show ep real quickly. Did you start writing?

Rockapella722 · 06-30-2003, 02:12 AM

No, I still have nothing along the line of a plot or characters or whatnot. I went to work for almost all day today so I had no time to think about it, really. I still really wanna write one, though.

I wanna do something in the fantasy genre, like along the lines of HP... but all I can think about is HP when I think of what I want it to be about.

i always have the urge to do something out of nowhere. mostly has to do with sewing or making other stuff.

I do that too. I gave in to that urge twice, then I lost the addresses and now I can't find my sites.

~LadyJess~ · 06-30-2003, 12:22 PM

I used to get urges to just sit down and write books. It hasn't happened in awhile but when it does I can sit in front of my computer for hours. Not that I don't do that anyway!

Me too! I write frequently...I start a story but I end up not finishing it because before I get the chance I get writers block... ugh!

Anyway yes I do get sudden urges like that...but by the time I start doing it I decide I don't want to do it anymore.
