I came upon a fic that had a standard summary and I said, "hey, why not? I'll give this a try."
It wasn't until I read the first sentences that I found it to be a highschool fic in disguise, I feel so betrayed now.
In a totally different note, to those of you that write. How the hell do you manage to keep your interest? I just started writing and I already feel like stopping.

It takes a bit of work. You need to take your plot bunny and dissect it, making notes, then describe it for your readers. If you know where you want to end up, you can work backward from there. An outline is pretty important if you want to maintain consistency and maintain pacing. Make notes of things random thoughts that occur to you and craft them into the story as you write.
You are not your signature. You are not your avatar. Admiration doesn't grant you the attributes you covet. You don't become wise by quoting wise words. At the end of the day, you can only count your own efforts to your credit.

Well, my story is a parody which means that I won't be caring about the plot much but the thing I have trouble with is keeping the comedy consistent.
I do think that writing down some thoughts would help, I'm always glued to my phone anyway; but the only thing I have a problem with is that I'm not what you call a 'motivated' person. I want to want to write, not think of it as a chore.
We are enslaved by Aliens, we just don't know it. They are basically humans who have ascended due to vast knowledge. When you die, you are reincarnated because you don't have a certain amount of knowledge to ascend.
Why do you think there's no-one like Sun Tzu or Leo Da Vinci anymore?
Now they insult the reader in summaries? That "duh" was unneccesary.
And that story was awful. On a seperate note, FF.Net says they're cutting back on spammers!

Hmmmm. Well, since it's a parody, you can relax a bit. Just don't make it too over the top. As for getting motivation, I hear where you're coming from. I'm trying to start my own story, but I haven't been able to do a single thing. I guess it depends on how much you want to do it.
I once saw a fic called 'Naruto - The elder scrolls'
I was like and read. It was in fact about old scrolls and not dragons, oblivion gates or khajit liars whatsoever
Skyrim

Council bashing it's pretty popular for some reason. I even read a story in which Minato and Kushina were alive and killed the whole council right in front of a bunch of people.

That's one fic I'll be sure to avoid.

I think there's a difference when you translate the name of a Japanese location into English rather than have London 50 kilometers away from Konoha.
The very thought of the latter makes me want to puke. Actually, for me, that depends on how well it's pulled off. After I went through the story and made sure that all of the hidden village and country names were in English, I realized that the Japanese word 'shinobi' was still in the title lol.
