Lightning and Thunder... not sure if you got there yet... but well Pip was stuck by lightning, even for a genius he's still terrified of it.

a dank man cave, yo
Okay, I caught up. That was a lot of reading. :tongue



I've got to say, the thought of another elemental magic system doesn't really fill me with enthusiasm.


Yikes. That's unfortunate. :[

Any advice for me? Aside from ditching it altogether, lol.

No, I need something not related to romance. Anything romance only makes me feel upset I can't get anywhere with the writing stuffs.

Insidious. That's all you need to do is watch that movie. By the end you will be dying to write romance so all the horror is washed from your system!

I hate anything horror.

And I'll watch movies and whatnot and they do nothing for me. I'm thinking I need something I can do for myself.

ETA: I mean I only hate horror when it comes to movies.

That's what I'm thinking. I'm currently trying to sync my old story files onto my new computer. I have a feeling I will cringe when reading the writing. But I might as well start from scratch.

I need more details before I can give advice. Is this for the story you think is too unoriginal? What is the story about? Is the elemental magic your existing magic system or one you're considering retrofitting onto the story? What are you aiming for here - is there a particular author you'd like to write like, or a particular mood you'd like to capture?

Details. :tongue

None of my ideas are salvageable. I don't know how I enjoyed working on these at one point. Eesh.
