Packing so I can move to Arizona.

Do it.

You'd be shocked at how many 'horrible' stories I've written...And read...And enjoyed despite the 'bad' premise. The Fire Emblem Awakening fandom, for instance, is home to a few surprisingly good self-insert fanfiction, good enough that it led to a wave of 'copycat' fics on FF.net (of variable quality).

And if it makes you feel any better, my own novelization (if I do it) will also inevitably include some romance between the PC and one of the NPC characters.

After years of owning a ps4 I finally bought my 1st game I wanted. Swordart Online, well the Nov. preorder which also gave the previous game for free. I love the anime I hope the game is decent.

Watching movies, resisting the urge to buy Zestiria on pc, thinking of playing my 3ds instead, or just going to sleep and waking up early so I can keep pounding out progress in this game

It's such a horrible guilty pleasure. My character and Ser Aymeric are madly in love... in my mind.

I've watched the new Star Wars trailer 20+ plus times.

Played some AC unity, now I'm laying on my bed counting how many hours of maintenance there are left.. too many..:(

Ser Aymeric certainly has been popular in that way, lately. He might even be starting to rival Thancred on that count...

To be completely fair though, when I do include romance in my stories, I veer towards 'canon' pairings, or at least pairings with some kind of canon backing. In that sense, I have only thing I actively ship in FFXIV right now, and that's my PC character/the WoL with a certain NPC who had a subtle (not so subtle in the Japanese version) romantic crush on them. That's the romance I'd like to do in my novelization, if I get to that point.

That said, my original point stands. And even if it sucks, so what? You have to write buckets of crap before you can start writing anything good. I make a point to encourage potential writers to try following through on even 'bad' ideas for that reason. Menphina knows I churned out my fair share before starting to produce anything 'decent'...

Well was last night for me but spent 5 hours playing The Talos Principle.

Might replay a pokemon game or catch up on Persona Q, Who knows.
