I'm experiencing...well, I guess it's writer's block. And it SUCKS.
See, I have the ideas. I've been coming up with ideas for my Watcher story for...the last few weeks.
Every time I go to start a chapter, I start writing it and get to say...a page and a half before getting frustrated because I feel like it sucks.
I've tried rewriting it three or four times, each with different beginnings, and each time I get frustrated.
I THINK what the problem is is that for almost two years, there was only one story I was working on, but I gave up on it a few months ago. So it's been two years, pretty much, since I've tried wriitng the beginning to a story (other than what I wrote for NaNo...which never got very far, sadly), so I'm out of practice.
Anyone have any ideas as to how I can get past this? I've tried looking for prompts...I've gone to the NaNo boards and have looked at their opening line threads but most of them are ones that wouldn't really work for the story I'm wanting to write, because it's fantasy.
On another note, would anyone be interested in sort of...co-plotting with me? It's something I only came up with yesterday and I think I'd like to try it. o.O I came up with it when I was answering the "looking for a partner" thread, so the idea can be found at http://youngwriterssociety.com/viewtopic.php?t=7639&start=15, in the reply I made. If you're interested, either reply here or send me a PM. ^_^
