Stagnation
Dec. 23rd, 2009 01:50 pmHaving just had a very interesting conversation with someone, I thought I'd write my thoughts here.
Over on Livejournal, I've written something for an RP that, because of the fandom characters involved is wrong and just horrible. On some level I know this.
She asked me why when I said I had to write it. There are many reasons that I have to.
However they all boil down to one thing: To see if I can. Writing has a bad tendency to stagnate if you don't stretch it every once in a while. So, I want to write this, to see if I can keep the characterisation real, and make it make sense.
I want to stretch my writing wings, and see if I can make people believe that these are the characters I say they are.
The fact that it's also fun messing with character's heads is completely secondary.
