Thank you, Snoink.

My Creative Writing Final has to be done by Monday and I'm nowhere close to being finished with it. I, too, edit too much. I shall use your infalliable stategy for my slightly crummy/in desperate need of aid short story.

I'll return and tell you if it worked. I've tried this before on novels but never on short stories. This... should be interesting.

:shock: _/)

It would've worked but I have such lousy work ethic.

Don't we all though! XD

.... that's why it's handy to have an obsessive-compulsive personality as well. As long as you focus your obsessions...

I have an OCD but it isnt a good one, my mind forces me to wash my hands about 50 times a day, if I come into aocntact with any other human I feel like washing my hands.

This might be very helpful for those doing Nano (maybe)!

Gah. Why couldn't I find this when I went through all the Writing Tips stuff last night?

Thanks, Snoink. :)

Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise? I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life... He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. It's ironic he could save others from death, but not himself.
