Blessed be everyone!
Ummmm, since I don't know where to do this, I'm writing it here. By it, I mean spilling my guts to complete strangers about having writer's block and blah blah blah, and hoping not to be judge so brutally.
Okay, okay, I'll explain better. *sights*
*Looks down shyly and plays with feet*
I don't know if any of you have the same problem that I have; that is, begining to write a story and then just...stop writing. Not finishing it at all, not having a clue about what else to write about, or simply forgetting about it. Then, somewhere along, get an idea for another story and...well, the same thing happens again.It's like a addictive cicle, but this one I hate it and want to get out of really soon and alive. No, I am not an addict of any kind...wait, does eating a lot of chocolate count? *crosses fingers*
Anyways, I got many unfinished stories, ones that I love and like to occacionally read. Sometimes, when I begin to read them I edit them and get a few more ideas, but nothing more comes. I do research a lot for my stories, I read plenty of novels, and try to get my hands on "how to write" books and articles to better myself and get more ideas. Nothign happens. I LOVE WRITING AND READING, I really do!
I have to explain first, since I think it's important, well not THAT important, but it'll help you guys understand. English is not my first language, spanish is. I decided to write in english cause all the books I read and the movies I watch are in english; I like english. English is easier for me to write than spanish. Now back to what I was talking about.
I don't understand why I can't finish a story of mine; I've come close to it with three of them, but I can't seem to finish them. It's so frustrating! Usually I get ideas from dreams, when I'm reading something, daily life; the thing that bugs me is that they are new ideas and don't fit into my stories.
Ummm, I think I'm using the word "story" wrongly; I TRY to write novels. Why? Cause they are long and have many characters that I can play with their development, yeah, stupid of me. Right now, I bet you're thinking "write a short story", BUT short stories don't agree with me. Ha-ha as if stories are food. *rolls eyes*
What I am trying to say and ask is "Does anyone else have the same useless feeling and if you have gone through it, how can someone make it go away?"
I hope I'm making sense, usually I ramble and stuff or get easily distracted and forget what I'm taling about. Hmmm, maybe that's my problem!
