WRITERS BLOCK!!!! *makes signs to ward away the evil* ;D Writer's block is a massive pain in the ass and comes in different forms! What you're suffering from HC is a sort writer's block...maybe you could call it head to page syndrome.  Meaning you see it so clear in your head but can't get it write on paper, which is something every writer suffers from.  There are a few ways to get through it.  You can take a break from what you're writing on for a while to let your mind keep working on that part of of the story or you can keep writing away till you get it right or you can combine the two methods.  Hope that helps ::):

You're welcome HC! It's amazing I've had more questions in the last couple of days than I had for the rest of the history of this thread I think...

Well it varies a bit from country to country...the U.K. is a signator of the International Copyright Treaty...so it should give you full protection for anything you have written whether it is on paper or on a computer.  Once you have actually created something in a tangible medium it is your unless you declare it public domain!

Well, Professor Tom, pehaps you can come to the writing lab and we'll see if there are any empty offices.  Crosses and uncrosses legs, leaning forward seductively.

Is there a chance, Sir, to get a critique on one of my stories and an opinion of what I did wrong....or right?     :
