I'm a Terrible Writer
Back again and want to write a new story or two casually...in fact, I wanted to do that under a new account because I couldn't deal with the stories that I didn't finish under this account. Then, I realized that if I chose to write under a new account, then all my precious badges would disappear (haha...not that it should matter much, but having a 6 years old account does feel like a nice accomplishment, though I didn't do much).
I'm a terrible writer...I keep on wishing to finish up the other stories, but I just don't have the will (at least at the moment). Sometimes, I know that if I just make time, then I can at least try to start making some progress. Anyways, for now, I guess I will continue to make some excuses, regardless if the excuses are reasonable or not.
I'm no longer working two jobs. However, I have been working full time while studying part-time. During my free time, I ended up choosing easy hobbies and brainless activities over writing...and frankly, I like it a lot (ahahaha)! I think at this point though, I have to admit that I still enjoy writing, but that I should still do my best to keep in the mindset that I write for myself and try to take it easy. At least this way, I won't feel any pressure and just enjoy the ride. :)
Currently, I have:
- 5 unfinished stories;
- 1 new one that I want to start soon; and
- 1 that I have deleted (there wasn't any chapter written. I also don't think anyone care anyways because it is such an obsure fandom.)
Regarding the 5 unfinished stories:
- The Kiss - Prequel to A Decade Later. I'm going to try to start on this next year hopefully. I really enjoyed writing A Decade Later, so hopefully I will find the joy with this one too.
- First & Eleventh - hmmm...I had an idea. Yes, had. However, at the moment, I'm not sure what else to do with it. I will likely need to brainstorm this a little and try to refocus the plot a little and shorten things a little before I can start writing again.
- Switch! Mr. Overachiever & Mr. Underachiever - da music is the energy drink for me to finish up this story. I initally wanted to make this a short story that would give way to a longer story. Think I should just stick with a short story instead. Will hopefully complete this under 10 chapters.
- An Irreversible Trade-off - Unfortunately, I planned too far ahead with this story (although, all in my mind, nothing written down) and lost the motivation to write as I know exactly how this story will end. However, I will try to pick up and finish eventually with the help of some edgy music.
- The Wiseman, the Opportunist, and the Insane - I think I can make this work by refocusing the plotline a little and go from there.
For now, I intend to complete the above stories.
Regarding the new story:
I'm thinking of writing a boring slice-of-life starring Yang Zi and Deng Lun~~~~ hehehe...
Bye for now~
