I HATE FANFIC WRITING!!! Nothing I write comes

can NEVER capture the mood or feeling I want

All my writing BLOWS! I HATE

IT! I HATE IT ALL!!!
How the hell do you people do it? How the hell

do you guys write so GOD

DAMN magnificently?!? HOW HOW HOW?!? Tell me!

It makes me so ANGRY that

what I have to work so damn hard on comes so

easily to all of you! You guys

don't even have to try! You constantly turn

out one great piece after the

other, with virtually no effort at all! It's

not fair! Nothings Fair! I

HATE THIS WORLD! I HATE EVERYTHING!

True writing comes from the heart.  You cannot
simply BS your way through something.  You must
search deep down into your soul to find what it
is that is there, then channel that into your
works.
Life is the ultimate power source for writing. 
Unless you've done the research and have a knack
for words, nothing can compare to your personal
translation of a lover's kiss, or the stars at
night, or getting punched out.  Everything
written has at its core the author's own
persona, buried within, just under the edge of
the story.
Find what you know, what you feel, then pour it
into your keyboard...or perhaps, maybe a pen
(then type it later).  What you will find is
your soul in 12-point Courier New font...and the
makings of a classic story.
That's just my 2 yen.
