Yeah, a lot of the stuff on my website is like that. The first few sentences are very good, then it veers suddenly into much lower-quality writing, then peters out without ever having gone anywhere. I guess it takes a few tries to find a theme you can actually work with. The first 4-5 episodes of Sozont were parodies, which is a form I find very easy to work with; apparently that created enough of a base so I can now build the rest of the story on that foundation, although it gives Sozont a bit of a split personality. Or maybe he's "growing up".
My works are generally of the parody or fan-fic variety...something I'm trying to get away from. I think my problem is that I tend to fuel my writing with whatever emotion I'm feeling at the time, giving me a very short window to complete it in.
