Re: Ideas you want to steal (but probably won't)

[(Anonymous)]

I actually did "take" the story once. Basically it went like this, there was this group of two or three incredibly pretentious so-so writers who would basically take a plot and analyze it to the point of death. Like, instead of writing it while the idea was fresh and new and they were excited about it, they took it and deconstructed it (in order to figure out how to 'write' it) until all the spontaneity and naturalness went out of it. And it was a damned good plot bunny. The scene just opened itself in my head, and once I saw how they were intent on talking it to death, I opened my Word and wrote it myself. Then I sent it to my writing buddies and titled it "this is how you write that scene (we were all members of the same board)". Then I posted it once my beta looked it over.

It was a shitty thing to do but I don't honestly have any regrets. For me, there's a naturalness to writing. Those writers constantly wanted to talk the process to death instead of just writing the damned thing. It didn't deserve to die on the vine like that. Not when I already saw it in my head.

What was the story, though, anon?

Also, did the other people ever get around to writing their version of it? Was there ever a larger consensus on which of them was better?

I don't want to be too specific but it was basically just a h/c hospital visit. SIMPLE premise.

Did they? I don't believe so. I don't know if it was because I posted mine first, or if it was because they talked about it so much they never got around to writing it. I guess I'll never know but I'm not losing any sleep over it either.
