The Need To Write

Current Feeling: Tired
Current Sound: Evanescence - The Open Door

I fell asleep last night thinking I need to write a novel...Then I thought, which kept me from sleeping, what would I write about?
In high school I always wrote stories I had a couple in the works but never could finish them! They never had an ending... They got proof read often by my friends and they always had comments and told me the truth about them. The ones no one had read and weren't printed yet were saved on my computer. Then my parents decided to get another computer...and my stories were lost. It was all done before I got home from school and everything had been deleted from the old computer...I was crushed...All my hard work was lost!
The people in my stories were always based on real life people. Besides the main character. The main character was always fiction. A few times I base the main character on me.But then I had written a story about Domestic Violence and the main character was a child. She had seen her mother get killed by her father and then her father killing himself. Her mother wasn't the only one who was getting abused. She was abused about the same amount as her mother...Basically when her father was done with her mother he would come after the little girl...The little girl grew up with her grandmother and after her grandmother died she finds herself going back to the same house, which had been kept and abandoned for about 11 years. Apart of her therapy was going back to the house. She thought she could fix it up and maybe sell it and finding love in the process. The friends who were proof reading this story were shocked I could write something like this and constantly asked me who was it about...I was shocked too it was a very graphic and emotional story. It left me with nightmares most of the time. I finally I gave up writing this story because if I had gotten it published people would be thinking I was abused and the main character was based on me...Which she was not. It was a good story of faith and love and I wish I still had the story. But it was one of the stories that were lost...I had printed the first few chapters out and let people read them but after all the people asking about the main character I stopped them from reading it...and continued to keep writing but when it was lost I couldn't start to write it again.
So I want to write something but I don't know what to write about...I know it will come to me. I've always wanted to be a writer and I've been told that I write really well. I have always liked my writing as well. So I guess I'll give my mind some time and see what it comes up with...
Well guys I feel that is all I'm gonna write today...I will let you know if I start writing something...Have a wonderful day!
