Everyone gets it at some given point in time, it's every writer's worst enemy, but it happens. Writer's block. Luckily I do not have it right now, but I had a very bad case of it last fall that lasted to almost mid-spring..
The Symptoms: It's when you want to write but your mind feels all blank and idea-less, blah and without a single bit of inspiration plus you feel lethargic and un-motivated. Pretty bad huh? Well that's worst case scenario. Mild symptoms of writer's block include false motivation but and inability to actually pin down any idea (it's pretty frustrating).
The Remedy: Try not to focus on writing for a while. Do something else. Do 50 jumping jacks. Spin around till you get dizzy. Read a good book. Eat chocolate. (Well, you get the idea.) Then when you've finally forgotten anything and everything that you ever had to do with writing, go back to it all of a sudden. It's amazing. Words will jump out at you, ideas will be beckoning you. Your only limit is how fast you can write. Good luck!
Note: no immunization yet found for this disease, it's pretty common yet no one's researching to find a cure. Cancer's old. What about this?

The End of the World
Deciding to die? It's too late now..
Cat is in 1st grade. Taking a test. But something is special about today. Papa left her one scrap of paper when went away. 4/6/12, 3:07pm. That's all it said. But Papa was genius. A scientist. He knew things normal people didn't. And that's why today was important. Cat knew it. (Well, Cat knows lots of stuff, she can get psychic when she's angry at someone.)
That's all the rage for next year. (if there IS a "next year"......)

Nightmares which can mean: Love can be fatal
Ah, now you finally see an outline coming into view! Set in France, a young nineteen year old, a Duke's daughter, golden-haired, blue-eyed, the loveliest creature one could ever find, enter Emilia. Meets a craftsman's apprentice and falls in love, Grecian (I don't know why but this detail about him makes me rave about this so much more), Nicholas. They are discovered, ect ect, young Grecian (!) is exiled to a faraway island. Now comes the interesting part... The girl is unconditionally in mourning out of her mind, totally messed up, when she starts having these dreams. Not your average weird random things dreams, but nightmares. Nightmares where she screams in her sleep, things that frighten her to the point of insanity. (Remember, and all the while where is the young Nicholas (Grecian!)? Well, that's the cool part, we don't know!)
Now then, back to our story, so she is getting these really bad visions and going crazy, and all the while her mother and father, the Duke and Duchess are picking out some suitors for her to choose for a husband. That's how far I've gotten. Au revior, and stay out of the way of those nightmares...

Trying to ORGAnize cannot decide.
Hi person. Sorry. anyhow, it's a bit of hassle, got too many random ideas floating around and pecking at my brain that I can't get one outlined storyline onto paper..
It's annoying. I wanted to do a classical story of an outlawed princess who looks for true love (no, cliche, finding something else) I wanted to do a diary of a girl who wishes she were someone else (know too many of those people), I wanted to do a double-point of view kinda thing with two people who don't know they know each other (couldn't get the full idea out), and I wanted to do a story of my own life (it's not done yet). I like the idea 'story of my life bio thing' but I'm just going to write random blurb-y things of memory important times type stuff and just tie it together when i'm further in my life (emotional-ness *GASP* sorry.). Livi, if you are reading this, I just wanted to tell you thank you so much for following this blog, it now feels loved and read (huggles)
jk jk anyhow thanks!
Conclusion: Organization is not always easy.
