Some Notes
Here are some notes of wisdom. Some people believe that you can write poems/books when ever you feel like it. I am sorry to tell you that this satatement is far from the truth. You not only have to be in the mood, but you really have to feel it. I cant write unless I have a certain sadness among me, but I also have to feel the story. I have to be the character. Not only that, but I have to WANT to be the character. Otherwise the writing no longer is fun but a chore.

I absolutely agree with you. Writing is a result of pure passion, not something that can be forced. To write a story is to live a story, to live among the characters you create, helping them along their journey. But, contradicting myself, it isn't really a story at all. It's a spectacular journey.
