I just McMurdered Blood Shadow, because it's trash. I might McMurder my entire profile so that there is nothing on it, because that'd honestly be bette than this horse crap. Although, I'm keeping my original stuff, because that's the stuff I think is at least better in premise than my fanfics.
The problem with Blood Shadow was that I felt an overwhelming desire to explain everything about Kyle because in the current state is in on Wattpad, Tryana is not like how it is now.
The problem with me writing in general has been several things: The feelings of Not Enough Detail, Bad Characterization & Plot, and, of course, my high standards not being met. I hold most of my stories to a high standard, but for me, I must do so that I may one day succeed at my desired profession of screenwriting.
Succeess for me does not mean lots of money. What I care about is being known for writing good stories. And right now, I'm not and can't be.
I mean, on the best of days, my dialogue is schmaltzy, my characterization is Ok, my plot is Ok, and my level of detail is decent enough. But that's not good enough. I'm not okay with just 'okay' or 'average'. I must be 'fantastic' or at least 'good'. And I am certainly not okay with being average. Sure, I'm a teenager. But that's no excuse. That, for me, should never be an excuse (Excluding full-on children, around ages 0-13).
I've only been really writing for about 2 years, but in my current state, I am clearly not enough. I need to be better, because if I do not become so my life is all been for nothing. And sure, one could say that I'm hard on myself. That's a severe understatement. I'm usually nothing but hard on myself because I know that I can always be better, in every aspect of my life.
From School to My Relationship to My Writing to Who I am, I must always be harsh on myself. Because no one else will be.
