Hmmmm

Why is it that everything I write turns into something that I don't want it to be? One of my friends and I began to write a story, and when she was writing it it was hilarious, but when she gave it to me it got a lot darker, a lot heavier, a lot more worrisome. Am I just a bad writer? Do I just have an unclear conscience that is dying to make itself heard? Am I not as over my dark "phase" as I thought I was?

And furthermore, why does nobody update their stories anymore? Their original ones, at least. I've subscribad to several, and I'm getting so desperate for good writing that I've even subscribed to a couple of bandfics. People really need to update.
