Hii darlings,
Only read if you have enough time to waste your time (if that makes any sense?).
Well, where do I start?
I thought it would be easy to write after making an outline of my story… everything is planned, but the problem is how to write all this. I wrote Chapter 1 and realised it’s not how I wanted it to be. The way I am thinking about the story… I am not able to write it the way I have imagined.
Eg,
I wrote: a tadpole is behind another tadpole doing nothing.
I want to write: a tadpole is just behind the other tadpole… intensely staring at him. Why? Is he trying to hurt him? Or is there something else entirely? What is his motive?…
But aaaaahhhhhh, I am not able to do so. Chapter 1 feels horrible. I read it and see that it’s not the way I imagined it… but I don’t want to waste my time on Chapter 1 because I know I won’t stop until it’s so-called “perfect". After looking at the emotions I have portrayed in it, I realised it was not supposed to be sweet but serious. How do I write something serious? Despite reading "serious" storylines a thousand times, I am still not able to write even a percent of it.
Well, let’s see where this will go… all I can do right now is continue, otherwise I won’t be able to finish what I’ve started. And this time, I don’t want that.
I’ve already wasted almost a month… and if you have any suggestions, do share. I need it.
Thanks for reading till here.
