Good chance.

Hold it. You're a political journalist. Everything you write is fiction. You shouldn't force yourself. It won't turn out well/ Find something you like. Pick something you day dream about. Okay... I'll never write a medical drama ala House. Yer point? Why you asking me what YOU like to write...

sGeh speaks to me. EDIT: No. It is really talking to me. You might want to burn that one, or at the very least get out of the house.

OH! I Know this one! In 2008 I worked out a way to push all the data backwards through the system so we could better pinpoint houses that had A LOT of equity. This was back during the hosing bubble. THEN I helped create the NINJA loan. No Income, No Job or Assets. We could give out a mortgage...

Curl up in a ball. Cry.

OP thinks time exists. Pfffft!

Nothing, really. If something is wrong, I fix it. Here's what I do. I write 3 times what a I need, throw out half, then carefully pare it down to the absolute distilled essence of the story. Then I go back and add fluff. The left over gets recycled later for another story, so I always have...

Many a nugget, but you need to get specific.

Because once every three days seems to be the ideal amount of time.

The autistic level of knowledge I have about the dumbest of fiction would absolutely astound you. If you assume fans are being targeted by Truck-Kun, rather than randos, then it would make sense they, at the very least, remember important things like... oh... WHERE THE HOLY SWORD IS HIDDEN.

Seasoning?

Thanks for all the suggestions, everyone. I think I have a few that fit my need. I'm unexpectantly busy at the moment, so I'll be back later.

Just once I want the newcomer who is an open book. "HI!" hello? "I'm the Male Lead and primary love interest!" Oh? Uhh... nice to meet you, I guess. "I'm going to be all dark and brooding, except to you because you are the only one who can heal my heart! I'm also very quirky!" ...? "I like...

Like Casanova Regalbuto VonSavage, esquire the fourth. Like the most over the top name you can come up with. A name that makes you want to punch the dude just for having the name.

One gets you shunned. One disappears you from the world entirely.

That's a different kind of political correctness. I think it's already a fantasy, so why worry about it? Who ever heard of a group of women working together toward a common goal without sabotaging each other at every turn? Purest fantasy, I tell you.

The hero's journey: He keeps getting knocked down, but keeps getting back up and slowly claws his way through hell to eventually win by the skin of his teeth and with not a small amount of luck. The HER-o's journey: She was always awesome, she just lacked the self-esteem to know how awesome she...

Yes. I consider my fanfiction to be an invading universe with the goal of crushing the original and taking over. It is an act conducted on a metaphysical plane of memetic warfare. Every fanfiction is basically a violent assault upon the original. There are no alternate universes. There can be...
