This is my nonproductive blog. As the title says, my mind seems surrounded by ideas, a storm, a blizzard that won't fricking shut up. I try to take an idea of mine, and it tends to seem absolutely brilliant, a never ending and kickass vein of awesome, but I can never actually put it into a form I want.

I concieve of epics and they condense into a story that has only the barest part of the message I had wanted to portray, the slightest hint of the overarching themes I was thinking of as I began it, but before I have so much as reached the conclusion of its introduction, I have already concieved of its ending, of the things it can portray, the lessons it could teach, if only I could get the fucking characters to talk to me. If only I could slow my mind down enough to say, tell the story one step at a time. It flashes ahead, looking for something else.

But, on the bright side, I've written lots of them down. I don't want to let them just rot in my notebook, in my mind, because at the time every one of them seems bloody brilliant, even at the last stages as I sputter and simply run out of what I want to do in that moment. So, I'll try to get them out, here, where people can, should anyone ever actually read this thing, see them, and maybe do something with them.

Anything I write here is something I had an idea about. It's usually heavily influenced by what I'm reading or watching currently, and where I remember what it is, I'll mention it.

I'd like people to look at these ideas, and try to do something with them. I don't know, it seems like me like the only thing I can't manage is the damned execution. Ideas, the cores of them, the burning excitement at its beginning, of having something that works, simply dies from me in days. They just pop out of me for no damn reason, and are as swiftly gone.

If something I've written here sparks an idea in you, awesome. Go write it! Go do it! Right away, you lazy shite! And then show it to me. I'd like to see what happens when people who can do the execution better than I can see my ideas.

Most things I write in here are overly ambitious worlds, usually with some kind of adventure element, and they're never concieved as being deep, just the collection of a bunch of cool images. The ones I really like, I manage to develop into themes while still keeping the cool parts, and I immediately want to write it. I start, have an outline, have a story, a beginning narrative, and as I begin that narrative, the glimpses of a shitload of stories it could be, which makes me really excited about the story, but which brings me, inexorably, to the ultimate conclusion of the story, far too soon. Often, I've not finished the first story, and I don't know if I've ever started on a second, even if I really want to do those stories. The first one... I just hate, and the world dies.

So, for now, here are my old, dead worlds. Maybe you can breathe some life into them.
