Mother was sobbing, begging for more time, but this confused us. We've been watching her grow up for years--even if we don't.

I would travel to the realm of Faerun for the sole purpose of enrolling in wizard school and becoming a world bending bad-ass. :)

Who the hell ate the last of my Oreo's last night. I'm willing to stalk people for days to find this answer.

That's a question... okay. Well, it's Eric Draven and Shelly from The Crow. Yes, Eric is shot in the head, and Shelly gets beaten; then both left for dead on the side of the road. Eric later dies while Shelly is DOA.
Of course, what makes this my favorite love story and fictional couple; Is Eric is determined enough to come back from the friggin' dead, bring unholy vengeance to those who harmed him, and his family, and then ends up getting back together with Shelly in the afterlife.
I think what I like most, is Eric and Shelly are both in love, but that potential is robbed from them, and the rest of the story is getting it back.
MY OTHER Favorite Fictional Couple is Korra and Asami from the Avatar Series. Because of everything that takes place leading up to the final adventure in the Spirit World.

I'm a huge gamer. I've been storytelling for a really long damn time. What inspires me the most is taking my setting and running games within them. Watching what players do gives me all kinds of inspiration.
That, and metal music. An hour listening to music and I'm fired up and ready to write.

Same advice that's probably been said a million times by everyone else. You can't do jack unless you actually finish your first manuscript. So, just park your ass in a corner and write until it's done.

Doing research on hidden parts of major cities for inspiration. Walking around in tunnels, underground industrial vaults, and century old buildings is an absolute blast.

So far this hasn't been a problem for me. I live in my imagination, so I always have some direction to move in. Theme-music keeps things flowing as well.
