Ive read all your comments and I'd like to expose my case. Im 16 and I write in greek. Ive already published a book which hasn't exactly been a success but nevertheless was finished in 3 months. Lately ive been trying to achieve the perfect scene and plot and sometimes i think by doin that, i just have lack of inspiration afterwards. My new book is a new male teenage version of sex and the city almost autobiographical and I just want everything to be perfect. However does our need for perfect organization and research destroy true inspiration? I wonder Thanks Michael Hi.. Ive read all your comments and I’d like to expose my case.

Teehee.I've actually got a stack of books that I have yet to read through before my boyfriend will allow me to buy more. It's quite funny, though, I've got this stack of books that need to be read, on one shelf. Then I've got my discard pile, on another shelf. The *must keep* shelf has oh...about a dozen books on it so far. I should really not buy books unless I really want to read them. Maybe I'll start getting books from the library first, and THEN buy them if I like them. Nope...wouldn't work...they don't give you enough time to read a book. *poke* *Poke* How about that editing pace? Teehee.
