I spent 10 years of my life writing a book about a boy who morphs into a cheetah to battle an evil race of aliens called the Yeerks only to find out this was the exact plot of Animorphs #11 So I spent 10 more years rewriting it so that the boy morphs into a rhino and guess what? Turns out Animorphs did that too I've learned that the only real capital-T Truth in life is that pretty much all the good animals have already been taken and it's up to each of us to accept this and move on or else be eternally enslaved to that tiny voice in the back of our head that whispers Maybe no one's done barracudas yet'

Write a book where an animal morphs into a boy and call it Shpromina
write a book about how OP became a gigantic faggot... forget that, alredy happened.
When I was a kid I used to pretend that I was fighting a secret war. I'd pick up a tennisball, and it was a lightsabre/laser ball that could be thrown. My bike was a hover bike where I was escaping from my enemies. I used toy guns sometimes too.
When I started growing up I thought about turning this 'secret war' into fictional writing. I wracked my brains trying to figure out how this would work. Teleporters which linked teenagers to secret government agencies where the 'real war' was being fought, across planets or areas where the common public would never see. But it was too complex and illogical to bring to fruition.
And then I realized that other writers do the whole 'secret teenage war' better anyway. Animorphs have slugs which infiltrate the minds of powerful people, while the teenagers morph into animals to stop them. And Harry Potter just uses...magic.
