*sighs* Do any of you lovely, brilliant people have any ideas for a short story? I have a story due in a week for my 4005 creative writing class and I'm stumped. (Actually, I do have one idea, but since it involves a woman making a choice between her music and her boyfriend, it seems rather juvenile ^^;). Anyone? Bueller?

I know! Write it about suicide!

Heh, no, I kid.

Umm...I don't know. I'm terrible about coming up with anything that isn't completely trite. But then again, it's all been done before, so you might as well not worry about it and just pick something that sparkles you.

The last short story I wrote was a sort of abstract, strange postmoderny thing in which the main character ended up kind of...dissolving into the Internet. *shrug*

Wish I could be more helpful than that. :/

*laughs* Even knowing other people go through the same thing is helpful. The story about dissolving into the Internet sounds cool, though. All my ideas seem trite or they're too melodramatic or weird mishmash of folklore and fantasy that I'm afraid to write for a "serious" writing class (and would make no sense to anyone but myself). ^^;;

On another note, do you have AIM? My AIM username is ekaterinn (surprise surprise). ^^

a story where someone is just contemplating about saving the universe and whatnot and then in the end go "oh! nevermind, the page finally loaded" and have them just get into the net world... tee hee.

You could write about how hard it is to come up with ideas for creative writing classes and about the evil professors who grade your creativity. Make up something about how creativity is about the writer's expression and it shouldn't be critiqued by this world's trite grading system :) hehe just kidding! good luck!

Vampires! Always fun to play on the psyschological (sp) aspects of life and death, and life after death and what happens when you choose neither...

*laz rambles on at 7am...*

You could write about how the trumpet players union of the late 18th century was really like a mafia... (but that wouldn't be fiction... it actually happened! Isn't that scary?)

Hmm short story? Write about the evils of pop culture and one persons attempt to escape it only to be brainwashed back into the ways of the world by the very thing she was trying to run away from... (gee I sound just like George Orwell and Ayn Rand...)
