RANDOMSHERLOCKANDOTHERFANDOMTHOUGHTS

I'm all for SherlockxJohn, but for some random reason I think it would be so cool if Sherlock fell in love (well, developed a weird sherlock-y type affection) with a dancer. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY but it would be beautiful.
Plus I really want to see the doctor, Sherlock, John, Spock, and Mccoy all in the same room. AGAIN, I DON'T KNOW WHY-but it would be cool.

What writing and stories should be
4 min read
I can't add this as a deviantation because dA is being kind of dumb right now so here it is a as a journal entry TT.TT
People who write, write for a reason. That reason isn't always the same-it can be different. Some people write pretty things; stories made up of shallow, candy-like words meant to please and comfort. Others write as a means of escape from their own life; worlds they wished they could live in, characters they wished they could be. Basically everything they can't have down on paper.
But some people write what's real. Some people look deep inside themselves, take what they know and what they've experienced-and make an epic story out of it. They write stories meant to punch you in the face, throw you in the rock tumbler and eventually spit you back out again-hopefully as a slightly different person.
That's the kind of story I want to write. The kind of story everyone should try to write. Not just a story that latches on to the current trend, a story made up of mediocre words and shallow, recurring plots. I don't want to just feed you pretty words, to write a story you want to hear- made up of love triangles, the typical high school outcast that always gets the guy and the happy ending.
I don't want to write something predictable, average, obvious, and expected.
I don't want to write an escape, a story based on desperate wishes and a life the writer wants to have. That's not what a story is about. It's not what a writer can take or gain from it-it's what the writer can give. No one seems to write what is real-they skip around the messy bits and what really happens- romanticizing and glamorizing everything as they go.
I want to write a story that will change you, a story that will take you out of the confines of your comfort zone and show what's really there. i want to pull the veil of useless words from your eyes and present you with better ones-words you can feel, taste, smell, hear. Words that you can live- words that you can actually take something valuable from.
I want to write a story that doesn't just give you what you want to hear. i want to write a story that gives you what you need to hear.

Stories. Words written and woven together for completely different reasons. But what is a story really? What you want to hear, an escape? No, a story is a journey. A journey that will pick you up from where you are and by the end-drop you in another place entirely. That place isn't always the happy, safe ending that you wanted.
But it's a place nonetheless.
A story (a journey) will take you to those places-wherever they may be. But it doesn't always take you the places you want to go or even bring you back to where you were. It changes you, even if you don't notice and even if it's the tiniest change.
A story isn't supposed to be a safe ride. It's supposed to pull the floor out from under your feet and take you -willing or not -on its journey.
Writing a story isn't supposed to be comfort food or running away. It's supposed to bring the writer back to exactly what they were trying to run away from. A story worth remembering is bringing you back to what's real, to what you know and can confidently write about. What you can pull from the depths of your soul- not just the shallows or the surface.
That can be hard. Doing that means looking at your pain, your mistakes, your faults-it means facing yourself and putting up with what you see. But doing that also means you've made a story worth reading- a story people will bring up again and again. A story that people can take something from- a story that can become a part of them.
A story you yourself can give.
I mean you can go to a thousand different places writing a story or be a thousand different people and have a thousand different lives. But you still have to remember the place your from, the person you are, and the life you've lived. Because without those, how can you write at all?
