Being a Writer
Plotting and writing a fic may seem as easy when readers read through a single chapter, but how much work involved in thinking and brain cracking a scene or a scenario are all hidden behind the screen.
Plotting
Plotting involves connecting all the dots that the writer placed at each phase of a story. Dots may be jumbled up in all sorts of places and to connect them requires a lot of brain juice squeezed. Sometimes writers have to even fill up missing dots that weren’t even there in the first place.
Ideas don’t just come in a blink.
Writing
Plot may be written in all forms; point form, scribbles, etc.
But to put them down into words is within another level, one step higher.
Each scene has to be described carefully, descriptive enough for a reader to image the environment, the interaction, the expression, and all of what one will possibly see in our real life. Missing out a single detail may confuse the reader, or even the writer themselves.
Beyond these two points, a writer has to rush to submit a chapter in time for the readers’ memory to still be fresh when they read on the next post. It is hard, to complement all the things that a writer has to take into account.
Appreciate the writers’ hard work, because all of these are behind the scenes. Their main purpose of hanging around is to satisfy not only themselves, but for the reader’s enjoyment.
Seeing my readers enjoy my work is something that can fill my heart, and motivates me to write even more, even better, for all of you.
Peace out.
