Got writer's block? Want to improve your prose? Grammar and spelling gotcha down? Then get out your sock puppets and chuck your sanity to the wind! (sanity is the number one block to writing)

...depends...is he a vamp and does relena know he's a vamp? if yes and yes then do like you say. just make sure you mention the vamp somewhere in the beginning
if yes and no, then make sure you mention vamp but make relena realy suprised.
if no and no then makw sure you give a reason to it straight afterwors...without going into too much detail...coz then you loose the lemon *lemon sprouts legs and runs out the door*

Okay I follow you to letting the Vampire identification so far. But what if you want your lemon to look fluffy...you know carefree just another one of this sweet lemons, but then it turns into angst, dark and slutry.


*blink* Did I loose you?

dw i still with you. it ok to have angsty dark stuff interlinked with fluff. my girl freind, she wa forced out of her home at 13, her family disowned her and now she's living with a 20 year old that she doesnt wanna be with but she has noowhere else to go. she has to kep him happy so in a way that is dark and angsty, but at the same time, she loves him as a dear freind. so it is sweetly sour, if you get my drift. as for th bitey thing just do it but mention that relena likes it and it wont make the initail fluffyness look out of place and confuse the reader. just make sure you maintain some element of fluffiness. agst and fluff can be joined together, you just have to do it so that oth themes are consistant throughout the fic.

I get what you mean. My only problem is trying to get some level of fluff before I turn around and make it drenched with angst.

That shouldn't be a problem. a dark but loving relationship isnt impossible....
just make sure when you start off fluffy that you make the angsty side buit AROUND it. like have a fluffy core with bits of angst clinging to the surface...think layers...the earth is just a bal of iron wrapped in dirt. your fic should be a ball of ...fluff. :eek: .....wrapped in angst. The actions are angst, the emotions are fluff

close ur eyes for a while and imaging the entire ic in your head before you write it...that works. cozwhen you dream of it, the emotions cintained in it are accessable through yourself...so then u know what to write.

True, but I have a very very bad memory. Period on that subject.

I have ideas, but then I constanly would forget to write them down or try and remember. :pale:

*nod* the worst is when you go for that piece of paper or whatever to write it down and your mind decides to play a trick on you by going completely blank.


That's how I usually always loose good plots and storylines.

*sigh* (especially my AU NC-17s)
