I have changed my pen name to PlagueRat on the archives. So if you saw my story posted there under this new name, don’t worry, it hasn’t been stolen.
Careful, I might have to avoid you like the plague!
Well, good luck, hope the change turns out like you want it to be.
BTW, you might want to list the old pen name for a little while on your profile page, just to alleviate some of the confusion that may result.

I’ve lost more ideas when away from my computer and I don’t write it down. Many good ones do not survive the maelstrom of my attention. Scraps of paper get lost. I don’t have to start writing it right away, I can start on an idea from my idea files much later.
I keep a notebook (not spiral, but bound) nearby as much as possible just so I can quickly jot ideas down, in as much detail as I can, which gives a sporting chance at recovering the idea later.

Having a broken spirit kills that inspiration flat dead... Trust me, I got a lot of Inspiration hidden in the basement... And for me, that happens a lot...
Stress kills... And when nothing's gone right (Just like right now, laptop's fried itself (I hate this damned city))... And bad times... And that feeling that, while I know people are reading, it doesn't feel like it...
Sometimes the stress makes my characters miserable too… just saying.

Writing helps, but yeah, inspiration’s easily lost.

Strange Things And Habits You Do While Writing

One rule I follow is to never start a story with the word “The”, and I’ve extended to try to be a solid choice too, either a sound, or a more concrete, tangible thing. [And this rule came from a teacher of mine, who pushed us to not start a sentence with the word “the”… something I normally manage (though, on occasion, a “the” will slip to the start of a sentence)]
