Have you ever had a moment in your life where you've seen something you have written, come to life?

It is something quite striking, horrifying: yet intriguing.
It is a fear that I have not felt since I was a young boy: suffocating on my own imagination.
Is it possible that the most shocking thing I have ever seen: was spurted onto paper, by the pen that sits at my side.

Have you ever had a fear of the pen?

Sorry, but your vagueness doesn't really make it easy to engage in conversation here. You created another Doodlebob?

Fear is not always rational, and therefore it can be hard to talk about without added vagueness.
Plus, I plan on melting the creation down into something more useful someday.



In many years we will realize this was a reference to jail time.



No. Fear of pen? Never heard of it before... But talking about fears being irrational, I guess that also goes hamd in hand in what people believe in. If you believe ghosts, demons, satan and so on exists which is irrational by itself, you will also fear them. Mostly triggered at places which you could imagine they would be present. Like abandoned hospitals and such stuff with cruel backround stories. Deep down in the darkness of basements. But meh, knowing that darkness cannot physically exist in this universe, what else should there be? You have to look at stuff from different perspectives.

So,... A pen...becomes ridiculous. It's just particular atoms on other atoms. One being what is ink, the other the paper.

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

We can erase our pencil abominations, but our pen abominations can erase us.

If by 'fear of the pen' you mean crippling writers block, then yeah, sure.

Other than that, if I have a good day I'll storyboard a whole bunch and can usually work off of that initial burst of creativity for several weeks, wich is nice. Drawing comes easier to me than writing as long as I'm in a good state of mind. I had a sort of 'drawing block' and wrote heaps when I was depressed though...:/

For some reason I don't think that what you were getting at though....:P
