I tend to find myself in the position of "idea guy" more than "writer". I have that nasty habit of getting great ideas, but getting a form of writer's block that hits before I've even started. It's frustrating, really. I just get so distracted, between school and family and other stuff.
I have one idea for a vampire story inspired largely by the real folklore, with two fictional inspirations being "The Exorcist" and the older movie adaptation of "Salem's Lot". For a while, demons were in what I call "The Red Pajamas" phase of their development in pop culture. They were tricksters mostly, and of course, were frequently depicted as people in Red Pajamas. Then came "The Exorcist" which ignored the Red Pajamas and went for the roots of demonology, as well as pulling from real modern cases of demonic encounters. Right now, vampires are in their own Red Pajamas, and I'd like to follow the footsteps of "The Exorcist" and present the story of one family's encounter with a vampire, going back to the roots of vampire lore as well as drawing from modern vampire stories like the case of Toma Petre.
Then there's the Bigfoot story, the elaborate Jason Voorhees fan-fic novel idea, ideas for a Batman comic I'd love to write for DC one day, and a bunch of other things that...I can't bring myself around to write up. gonk

Yeah I love writing. I have drawers filled with notebooks all the way back to high school filled with poetry, verses and im a little embarassed to admit rap lyrics lol. Back in high school this girl had been into poetry, and given me this 'mashimaro' notebook with verses in them. Told me to write some stuff in it, and it took off from there. Everytime I filled one up, she bought another one. I dunno why, but we ended up dating that year. and I dunno, I keep it for memories sake even if I dont really write poetry anymore. A year after high school (2005) I took 6 months off cos I didn't want to go to university so I went overseas. When I came back I was stuck in this twilight year of no classes no work so all I read alot to keep myself from dying of boredom. Drove me to write stories, all of which I still have on my comp and various usbs. some okay. others barely a paragraph in. but man, i loved writing them. Recently I've outlined a couple of ideas for graphic novels with a friend of mine who's interested in the same things. But because work is hectic its taken me a year to even finish one up... Anyways, sorry for the essay, just thought I'd share smile
