hey,
so, recently i’ve been feeling kind of hesitant about updating close friends. don’t get me wrong, i love writing and making plot lines, but i just feel i’ve steered it in the wrong direction.
when i first started writing the story, i was in a really toxic relationship, which i won’t get into, and i was really hurt by it. so, the whole “unrequited love” theme came up, and that was how i wrote my feelings out; i realize this now.
i really don’t like what i did with the story. i don’t want my writing to turn into a cringe filled “i love you but i can’t be with you” type bullshit. i feel as if the plot is boring, there’s no character development, etc.
i wrote this because i need advice. i don’t know if i should keep on with this storyline or not. if i do continue it, i most definitely am going to change the whole “unrequited love” theme and make it more positive. or, should i completely restart from the beginning and scrap the book? again, scrapping the book would just waste all of the hours and hard work i put in, but it would give me a fresh start.
tell me what you think. thanks.
