How come you don't want to write it yourself? Personally, if I had an idea of a story and left it for someone else to write and they butchered it, it would make me die a little inside. I would be willing to help you out if you choose to start the story, but I'm already elbow deep in two novel-length fics and various smaller projects.Quote:

They would probably be short chapters (about 2000 words) but I would make them as quality as possible.
You can do the story yourself, if it was my idea, I would. But, if you would like me to do it for you, I would be really happy to. We could trade AIM names as well, it would be a lot easier to discuss ideas. Also, I would have you as my co-author when I got the story up. :)
I would absolutely take all of your ideas into account and I would only change them if I had an idea I thought was much, much better than yours. And, of course, I would ask you first.
Take note, though, I am inexperienced writer. I would definitely try to make the story the best as I possibly could, but it may not be as good as someone else, like Jess, for example. But I imagine she is way to busy to take on this idea.
So, yeah, I would be happy to do this for you.
If you want me to, just PM me with your email and AIM name if you have one. And, if you want, post in this thread anything else you would like to say/tell me.

Don't worry about being 'inexperienced'. Myself, I only have 2 posted fics on Mugglenet, so I'm technically inexperienced as well. Before starting my current WIP, I hadn't written since secondary school, so essentially, it's like starting all over.Quote:

Good luck, and congratulations on your adoption of a baby plot bunny. :D
Nice to meet you Annalise! Of course you can adopt the idea, I've been looking forward for someone to give a home to it for a long time. It's been collecting cobwebs in my brain for three years and I'm glad that I'm finally cleaning that area for additional space.
I wanted to write the story myself but I'm afraid I quickly get bored of typing and I'd feel bad for my readers if I suddenly stopped writing and posting. (I'm currently feeling that right now as I stopped updating my profile over at FFNet for a long time. Busy, busy...)
I do appreciate you asking me first but I am completely giving all the decision making to you (just point out that you got it from me.. *wink*) I have no problem with some changes, I actually welcome it since it could be a good idea that I hadn't thought of before. I also liked to thank Not to be Gryffindor for his input about the plot during the first couple of posts. It sounds better now rather than the other way around.
And don't worry about being inexperience. *waves hand dismissively* I'm having problems with grammar myself. I tried to post a story two years ago at Mugglenet FFiction but its always rejected due to wrong grammar.
I'll look forward to the first chapter. For some reason, I didn't received a notification about your post. If it wasn't for your PM, I wouldn't have read it at all.
Exchanging ideas are also good but I'm afraid I don't have an AIM. I'm active at yahoo and facebook. I'll PM you my account...
I'm also elbow deep to two novel-length fics and I haven't updated yet for six months. Busy, busy over at thesis... I hate college. If I can only have Hermione's Time-Turner, I'll turn back time and repeat high school. I wouldn't mind going all over again but the upside is that I now can change every embarasing moments during those years... hmmmm.....Quote:
