Me again.
I love books, and writing (obviously) and Catcher in the Rye is what I'm reading now, it's pretty good too. Music is a big part of my life, I play guitar, claronet, and am teaching myself to play the violin, which is actually going pretty well, considering the whole no-teacher thing...If anyone has any tips though I'd really appreciate it--seriously--I may be able to play alright, but tips for sound quality, tone, anything really would be oh so loved, so just email me, please?
This frustrates me so much, and I was wondering if anyone else experiences it: I find that whenever I get this really good Idea for a story, I can never write it down unless I know it backwards and front. Honestly, it feels like if I even utter one word of its existance, in any way, before its reached full maturity, its like I'm destroying it! One word of it down on paper, unless its a plot diagram, for some reason, and I am a popped balloon! Deflated and Depressing to look at, let alone be around! No wonder the thoughts leave me so soon... Though, on the brighter side of things, this mental mechanism sure keeps me from popping out stories that I lose the stamina to finish.
