Current Events > I think I have some good horror short story concepts, but

(+) Yeah! (+)

I am far too much of a perfectionist to finish/publish them.
Anybody else have this problem?

yeah

except I dont have any good ideas, my film would be a trope-fest filled with my favourite tropes

maybe consider a partner, might help keep that in check.

Yes. I have 38/40 rough drafts of my sci-fi novella and I should be done with the last two in the next week. I doubt I'll get comfortable enough to publish but I'm just so happy to have gotten this far. The main story is done and I'm so pleased with how well my vision translated to paper/screen. Outside of the few friends who've read it, I'm content if nobody ever reads it.

I'll probably still sporadically revisit though. Never know what will come of it.

However, I am working on a poetry book that I'm going to publish no matter what. I hate poetry and it's more for therapeutic purposes to help come to terms with my lifetime struggle with obesity. I oddly don't feel any pressure about that being scrutinized or ridiculed or falling short of perfect. Prolly cuz I hate poetry <_<
