thanks you guys, you are both right.

By the way, I am an oct 28 scorp I have an astrology hobby too and i think i have a mercury/uranus conjunction.

I was actually doing some more thought and reading on this and realized, if i focus on my true strengths, then whatever I do will be original anyway. My site can be totally different from the rest because of the content I would focus on. It wont end up seeming like a copy of steves or erins or anyone elses. In fact, the reason I love reading steve's stuff so much is because he talks so much about improving things that are my WEAKNESSES. My site would focus a lot more on communication, honesty with yourself, relationships, visualization, dream interpretation, tarot, etc. Things I feel I have mastered.

Not to mention, I have to remember that I spent 10 years in writers block, and the one thing that got me out was forcing myself to write a short story that is a piece of crap. I wasnt writing it to win a pulitzer prize, i was writing it just to write. and it was totally stupid and lame and unoriginal, but it saved my writing life.
