Sometimes, it is extremely difficult to start a story. The general idea is there, the motivation, and all that. The execution is lacking; not quite lacking, but...erratic and messy. I have notes, random scenes and words, and no clue (or time).
I am going to need a beta. Maybe a support group.
The one I'm focusing on now: Avatar AU with June and Piandao. I had a moment when I wrote something that I actually really like. But I'm starting to get to a point with my writing that I second guess everything I write. Why did I do that? Would they say that? Does that make sense? Okay, that's just stupid; or is it?
I don't know where that's coming from. Always discovering new respect for the real deal authors with expectations and deadlines. Ted Dekker is my hero; I mean, a trilogy in three months? No. Words. For how awesome that is.
