Technical difficulties with writing...
  Make me wanna dance with joy
  Make me wanna drop kick my abusive cat out of the window
  Make me wanna rip apart, limp by limp, the very cause of these difficulties
  Make me wanna sit down, drink a cup of tea, and pleasantly think these difficulties through
  Make me wanna bash my skull against my refrigerator
  Make me wanna SHOUT come one now SHOUT come on now SHOUT hey hey SHOUT (has anybody heard that song???)
  Make me wanna scream so that the entire world can hear my pain.

All the poetry and prose I had written over the course of two years were saved on the family computer, and were all backed up on floppy disks.

Without warning, my mother replaced the computer. The new one, although snazzier, did not have disk drives. Because of this, she threw out all of the floppy disks.

I promptly aquired my own laptop, as well as a flash drive. The family computer shall never know my touch.

The first story I ever wrote, my mother deleted.

My own mother hacked my user account on the family computer, cracked the security on my documents file, and deleted the first real story I ever wrote, for no other reason than because it was about two girls falling in love.

I haven't had the heart to rewrite it, and I will forever hate my mother for doing it in a time when we still used floppy discs to backup our work. (she snapped those, too >.<)


I've been lucky with my flashdrives. I lose them sometimes, but they always make their way back to me eventually. I've never been in a situation where somebody's comments or criticisms have kept me from writing something, but with my luck, acknowledging that fact will cause it to happen soon sweatdrop


Normally, I'm against violence, but I'd have a very difficult time not hitting someone who did that. Horrid thing to do, even worse to do to your own child, considering the implications.

It's the story of my life.

Motivation. And writer's block. And homework. And conferences.
It's a wonder I write at all.
