Happy Birthday Goblin!!!!!!!
I love revisiting my old writing! It sparks my imagination and I get to see how far I have gone in my writing style ^_^ Are you enjoying yourself today?

I write what I can, when I can. It's most frustrating for me when I have a roleplay character (I have tons of breedables pets on Gaia for whom this is true) wanting time but either they're not in a roleplay or the one(s) they're in is stagnant. Part of that I think is what tailspined me into my last huge writer's block. Not the only factor by a long shot, but a prominent variable for sure.
Conversations I think are hard for many writers to do believably. I know they're my greatest weakness in writing. Probably because I fail with communication on a whole. :laughs: It's a family failing.

Thankfully, I didn't have that in HS or I would have flunked :P I only like them as a writing exercise unless a really, really good one comes along that sparks my imagination!
And I'm with you on conversations.....I suck. A conversation that should only take a minute can take almost 5 to read! Although I'm reading some books by an author I really like and I'm trying to learn from him how to write them so no one goes to sleep during my story :P
