I've come up with quite a few stories--some of which actually have plots! The problem is once I've worked out how everything resolves in the end, I lose interest in the concept and move on to something else. Thus, I only have a collection of my favorite scenes from each story, which is all I can bring myself to write.

My latest idea, which I've barely thought about, is currently called "Save"(totally original). It's about a super hero type character who's only super power is to save a moment in time which can be returned to at the hero's convenience (a bit like...no, exactly like a save game). Of course, to complicate things only one moment can be saved at a time, sort of like a quick save button. No plot, no character, just a weird idea.

Yeah, I came up with this after missing my jury duty and wishing that I'd had the power to just load a save game of my life and redo that bit...
