I'm afraid I'm suffering from a terrible case of writer's block. I have absolutely no ideas for any of my projects. I fear the BBC may use my ideas for Series 11 in Series 9, and that makes me scared to pursue the project. I really don't want to have to abandon it...

That being said, I need ideas for episodes. I also want to spice up Series 11's plot because it seems kinda tame and boring: The Doctor searches for Gallifrey with no luck, only to learn that it's inside him...

Something more needs to happen with that; right now it doesn't have the potential be a series with a jaw-dropping finale in which "all is revealed" and "all questions are answered." So in short, I need enough ideas to put together an epic, emotion-triggering series that has all the best Doctor Who elements. And then I need help doing it again in Series 12, as well as in my two spin-off series...

In all, I need:
 * 13 (technically 14) episodes for Series 11: a two-part opener that introduces the overarching plot, four adventure-type episodes in which the plot is only hinted at, a two-part mid-series story focused on the plot, three adventure-type episodes, a two-part series finale, and then a Christmas special.
 * 13 (technically 14) episodes for Series 12: a two-part opener that introduces the overarching plot, four adventure-type episodes in which the plot is only hinted at, a two-part mid-season story focused on the plot, three adventure-type episodes, a two-part series finale, and then a Christmas special.
 * 26 episodes for Series 1 of The Doctor: these episodes take place analogous to the Eleventh Doctor's adventures and should introduce enough original material that we can clearly see this as a separate story (that is still connected to Doctor Who) about the DoctorDonna.
 * 26 episodes for Series 2 of The Doctor: these episodes take place analogous to the Twelfth Doctor's adventures and should introduce enough original material that we can clearly see this as a separate story (that is still connected to Doctor Who) about the DoctorDonna.
 * 26 episodes for Series 1 of Paternoster Row: these episodes (time period TBA) should be original enough that they clearly focus on the Paternoster Gang. Series 1 shows the group's early days and their eventual tightening into an unbeatable team as a dangerous threat only they can defeat makes itself apparent.
 * 26 episodes for Series 2 of Paternoster Row: these episodes (time period TBA) should be original enough that they clearly focus on the Paternoster Gang. Series 2 shows the group's missions and investigations as another dangerous threat only they can defeat makes itself apparent.
 * A note about Paternoster Row: Episodes need to be balanced between Earth and other worlds; Victorian London is the main setting, and episodes should possibly have a Sherlock-y feel due to Madame Vastra's role as a detective.
 * That being said, I've never seen Sherlock, so any help is appreciated.

All the head-banging I'm doing as I search pointlessly for ideas is the result of my perfectionist nature:
 * I only use material I can picture in my head as if it were actually playing out on TV (meaning I struggle greatly to create new and original enemies/characters and hesitate to use Classic Who material in my New Who-era works unless the BBC already has).
 * I only use material that is of the same quality as official material (meaning I don't use ideas that Steven Moffat wouldn't). Since I can't actually write Doctor Who episodes for the BBC, the next best thing is to write fan-series material that is just as good, if not at least a little bit better.

My apologies for the length of this message, but you seem to be very supportive of my creative Doctor Who endeavors, and you also seem to be seeing things on the same level as I am in regards to my various projects and what I expect of them. I'm sorry if I've already asked this, but at least in the idea genesis/planning phases, how do you feel about partnering up?

Regardless of your response, I just thought I would let you know that I am leaving on Friday for Walt Disney World and will most likely not be able to visit this Wiki extensively until I return home next Monday. I would greatly appreciate it if you kept an eye on my pages to ensure no one edits them without my permission; if you have any questions about my projects or get any ideas while I'm gone, please post them on my message wall so I see them upon my return. I'll respond ASAP!
