it's on my mind

Sounds like the start of a decent RP idea sure. It'd be possible, but I'd think you'd need more details and a system for it to work for it to get off the ground as it seems it may be a tad complex. It would need structure, I think is what I'm saying. It's not the kind of thing I'd go for, but I'm sure others would indeed. If you really want to do it then go for it, brainstorm all the ideas you'd need and float an interest check. Like what is the purpose of the inventions, what are the elements and what kind of ingredients are available to be used? What are the limitations? That kind of thing. Maybe a rough plot that adds some structure or a world that this is set within.

Escapism and RP

I’m all adult and stuff, normal life and all that. But I’m also into my escapism – for many of the reasons SilverWolfAngel indicated as well as a few of my own. That being said I don’t resent the world or my real life at all and I’m generally happy and fulfilled with a lot of things. I wouldn’t worry about RPing and your other hobbies ruining the other parts of your life, it certainly hasn’t done mine. It keeps me happy to have my own outlet, and whilst none of my friends RP or write like I do, I’ve mentioned once or twice that I do. My better half (Lady Pie, if you will) knows all about it and occasionally indulges me as I tell her about my favourite things, or I suggest she reads an RP I’m doing I’d think she’ll enjoy - or we will play a game together on occasion (ah those sweet sweet all night Civilization 4 sessions). I truly love all of this, and whilst I’d have to agree lots of things in life (work particularly) suck something fierce – my ‘hobbies’ haven’t made me resent them anymore than the normal amount. Everyone has to do things they wish they didn’t and everyone has the things that help them feel better about it. Balance will come naturally one way or another, so I’d just chill about it and do it as much as you can/want. You may eventually find other things or people that also make you very happy that aren’t escapism. Escapism isn’t bad at all, in my opinion.

What do you listen to when writing?

Huh, I'll generally have Friends playing in the background minimised, whatever I'm doing (writing or gaming or whatever), rarely listen to music unless I'm walking somewhere, very rarely when writing. When I do I only listen to heavy melodic/folk/foreign metal songs, I hate lyrics that I can understand - ruins music for me. I'm an odd one I guess.
