Im 20 years old, I have faced many obstacles and problems that I have had to go through alone with no help and the help I recieved wasn't ever any good. I have faced women problems, friends moving, suicide, killings, deaths, car accidents, sibling rivals, fighting, weird hobbies, my best friends being raped. I have been through a little of everything and I was the one many of them turned to so I like to help out.
Hobbies: I do a lot of work in recording studios, and video/editing studios so I know film pretty well. I am a director/producer. Thats what I am in school for, to further my knowledge of set production for I am a pre production wizard. I read a lot so I have knowledge. And more.
Education: I graduated at the top 15 percent of my class in high school which was college prep, and right now im in my 3rd year od college. I have an AA degree in media arts, a 6 month screen writing certificate from NYFA. I am 11 months from my BA in FILM and HDTV, and I am a semester away from an International Business Degree.
SO if you have any questions im polite and easy to talk with and you can ask me any question you have, I will be honest no matter what.

As the question says. :) Not to toot my own horn or anything like that, but I consider myself a good writer, as do my teachers. Essays, articles, parodies and reports get consistently excellent marks. However, I've desired to write creative stories, specifically fanfiction, for a long time, but I'm having trouble writing anything. Last time I've written fanfic was at 14; now I'm 17, and I'm afraid I've lost any spontaneity and skill I might've had. I don't believe imagination to be the problem, but I have trouble writing them out onto paper/computer, and I also have the problem of being too self-critical, so I'm constantly editing and deleting things (which doesn't do much for progress!). Does anybody have any suggestions to help? (link)

Dear Creative,
Whats up?Well trust me I know the feeling of being stuck in a rut, especially the rut you are in. I used yo write tons of Fanfiction when I was 14( I'm a male) just to get my creative juices flowing. And like you I took a break and I got back into it in a sad way (I watched a few of the Lizzie McGuire Espisodes) when I finished I wrote my own Episode with what I would want to see happen. Thats how I got back into it, and now its easy to write whatever I please. Also the problem with you is it seems as if you are off direction, like you know what you want to write about you just can't seem to get the "work" to flow the way you want to. The best way to get your creativety back is pick a TV show (any one). Then add yourself into the show, and treat it like a story.
