So the story writing is not going so well. I started it last week, wrote about a page and half, not then nothing. I think the problem is that I don't know what I want to happen...what the conflict will be, what the feel of the story should be, etc. I saw the first sceen in my head, and I liked the feel, the idea, the world that it implyed, but putting it on paper and all that went away. So I am not sure what I am going to with it. I might start it again...I don't know.

That same thing happens to me every time I try to write fiction... it all starts so well and then so quickly fizzles out. I never know if I need to push through or give it up.... I always give up.
ReplyDeletefunny, I actually have a story in my head right now. I have been playing with it there --- I can't seem to give myself time to put in on a computer screen. I realized as I was thinking that I could...almost...write an outline: beginning, middle, and well some idesas for end. But I have a hero and a villian, conflict, events and a "why" I will try to put something down so you can comment and help me ~ K ... after finals week.
ReplyDeleteI have actually started a book. Even have the first chapter written, but that is as far as I've been able to get. I think I've been bummed because the first book didn't do anything. I think I've sold barely over 10 coppies in two years. Layne keeps telling me that a writer writes regardless of weather anyone reads it or not.... Maybe I'm not a writer!
