Why is it that my mind just can't let me finish one story before it brings forth another idea...

and it seems to turn out to be somewhat long too... !!!!

Short version (don't want to give too much away at the moment

):
Maria and Georg fall in love as in the movie... but their relationship develops a bit faster and they sleep together before the wedding... and then the whole thing takes a new turn from the movie... the Ansluch is happening much faster than anticipated... they never get around to get married... they have to leave in a haste... in the travel Maria get's away from the family... in a chain reactions of events they are split apart and now G+children leave for america, still not sure what had happened to Maria.... Maria is alone, confused and scared... but leaves for America as well....

Thinking of making this a somewhat long prologue (ex via a flashback where M is sitting in a train/ship on route to America... as I want to focus on what happens IN america... trials of the heart... will they ever meet again and how long time will it take??? And there will be a few added surprises along the way

Don't think I'll start writing on this until after Christmas...

but guess I now got something to occupy my mind if I need to "escape" the family Christmas craziness...

You have to tell them to get in line and wait their turn. Your idea sounds like quite a story. Very angsty. Good luck with it.

It does sound quite tragic, but I for one love stories like this, you could count me as a reader. Btw, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you haven't written anything like this yet, have you? I mean, your stories are usually a bit more lighthearted aren't they?

Ooooh sounds quite interesting. I think I read a story like this once where Georg and Maria are separated before they reach America but it is incomplete (!!!) (just like my life) and I am very excited to see a similar idea! All the best in writing it, and you can count me as a potential reader

ps If you are the person whose story I am talking about above ^ please do not feel offended or hate me I love your story very much <3

Good luck, mie779!

Nope... haven't really written tragic stories... so yes the idea will have to brew a bit longer in my head....

and might change a bit over time... it will be quit different to write a story like this... I've mostly written fluffy romance stuff....

I do think that my "17 going on 18" will be a bit more angst/drama kinda story, but still with fluff and romance

... there will be something surprising in about 2-3 chapters...I won't tell you what I've got planned... sooo looking forward to what you think of it

and sorry for the long wait on that... do hope that RL will grant me some alone time during Christmas.... not sure what my family would say about me locking myself up in a room, putting on the old TSOM record, that I found last week and sit with my laptop and write....

they would honestly think I've gone bonkers

No that is not my story... don't think I've read that... such a shame that stories get abandoned

No I suppose you can't do that... it's a shame though, right?

Just kidding, go and enjoy your holidays, I can be patient for a little while
