Apology accepted mate, although it doesn't make me feel much better that you're leaving. I know I sound overly critical a lot, but that's just the way I talk in real life- if I have a problem with something, I just say it.

I think you have potential as a fiction writer, you just need to take a moment to try a different approach. If you've ever seen the TvTropes website, that place has plenty of useful story and character devices that you can mix and match to create a good foundation, then put your own twist on it. Developing fiction doesn't happen overnight, I've been working on the Fordanta for years and they still don't feel quite right to me. Give it a bit of time, and it'll turn out just fine, trust me.
