Haha, I'm currently debating whether I should make one of the characters I have not introduced yet (male) fall for my main character (female) or my secondary main character (male). Or if I should let him have a much neater romance with one of my "bad" characters (male) orrrrrrr have that character like him while he likes someone else orrrrr...there are a lot of options. =D

I'm enjoying this. The thought of editing or possibly doing something with this, however, is daunting.

Ok, I started on the 20 of October, and today, 6 of November, I have reached the 50 000 words, so it took me 17 days with a bit of vacation.

I decided to do the novel on my sister. I researched ideas and came across "free verse" so yeah. Heres the first page:



Let the words on this paper burn my image into your mind.

I don’t care much for introductions, beginnings.

All I care about is finishing each day, not quite surviving,

not quite smiling

not quite sane.

Who knows where life may take me? I don’t have dreams anymore, what’s left of them

are no more than dust particles whispering in the wind. All I have is this hot second of

trial, of denial. I’m not to sure of anything, except that things will never be the same
again.

Hmm, finally decided to post the first chapter. Rest of the post is in the first page of the PDF for those who plan to read.

Nice! I keep telling myself to go write, but I am too lazy.

Congrats Merun!

I'm still working on the ending of my novel. I've been trying to write a decent one for almost a year now (I have writed and deleted the last 40 pages about 15 times), and I just don't like how I write it. There is something I am doing horribly wrong, and I don't know what is it.

The ending is unexpected yet logical, doesn't have any weird conclusions or loose ends and it leaves some room for a second part, so I just can't guess what the heck am I doing wrong. I guess I have to improve the way I write.
