L wrote:Well, here's the problem:
I want to start writing properly. I never write anything good, and definately nothing i'm actually proud of. I wouldn't dream of posting anything on here (unless it was a nightmare, an embarrasing nightmare.) And i was wondering if I can have all round advice and tips.
just on how to write a story, in general.
If you know what i mean, could you pass on your experiences? I had an idea i'm going to start about 2 people...hang on the storyline's strange. Well 2 people who have to keep moving around (for an unknown reason...possibly being chased...i odn't know) and they keep meeting people who have their own great stories/backgrounds/problems...it was just something i could do when i got in and i was angry about something. I could make people up they have met and write about something i was angry about that day. That person would either have the same problem or an over exaggerated problem.
Did that make sense?
Oh i hope it did to someone...
First off, it's never too late to be a good writer. :]
Based on what I am reading, I think that to start off, you need some confidence.
You need to believe in your work, and to take your writing more seriously, and THEN start working on the other stuff.
You can't be afraid to share your writing. There's one thing you should know: You WILL be criticized. Now, don't fret about it. :] Use that criticism to your advantage.
^.^ btw, I think that the sketch that you wrote above is a generally good idea, you just need to fill in the gaps a bit :]
Remember, be confident with yourself!
