I used to do original fiction. I had such great ideas; psychic aliens with familiars, a horse born of thunder and Pegasus' bloodline, come to help a family in debt; an elf of a lost civilization who could bend reality, another elf who was immortal and had immense psychic gifts; a demon/angel hybrid born into a human body and taught how to use words to control, compel and banish harmful spirits. I even had werewolves and ghosts.

I never got anything done, though. The struggle became overwhelming. Now there's no heart left when I write but for RPGs.

It happens.
