I've had too many ideas for new WIPs. It's really sidetracking me.

I'm trying so hard to not use the Snape/Lily sort of thing, but I adore that. Grrr...

The Snape/Lily thing? What aspect of it?

I really didn't like Snape, so I always found it sort of creepy...

Me neither, and it sucks.

I think my problem is that I was too young when I thought of the original idea, and it didn't really make sense, but I'm too attached to it to really rip it apart.

I wanna start from scratch but I'm just so... stubborn.

I should just trunk it and do it later or something...

How he loved her, but she went with James... That whole thing.

I'm the only person in my house who likes Snape. I'm also the only person who has read the books, so...

Oh, I see.

Most of the people in my house have read the books and for the most part, we don't really like Snape.

We won't deny that he did great things, we just don't like his personality.

His personality is a little... You know, but I still like his character. My mom doesn't like his voice in the movies, but to be honest, it's EXACTLY how I pictured it when reading the books. :tongue

Yeah, I like mine too. I have a real problem settling on my villain's motives, though, for some reason...

I'm thinking of starting up an Urban Fantasy or something.

A world of pure imagination...
Snape is seriously like one of my absolute favorite characters in the entire series. I had like five minutes where I hated him, but that was it.

I hated him for most of the series. Then Hallows happened and I felt like crap for hating him. Re-read the series and loved him the whole time.

The TARDIS (I hope)
I had a love/hate relationship with Snape. In the end, it was love.
Especially those few chapters in Deathly Hallows...

Brainstorming is not fun. I agree with you there.

I'm getting most of my ideas by writing profiles for my characters.

I was doing that earlier too.

You know what I need? Notecards. I should just write a bunch of ideas down on notecards and try to synthesize or something.
