NANOWRIMO! I'll keep this post here so it stays at the top until the end of November.
The story is...well, it's crap. It's just a discomboberated gabble of scenes that have some type of structure but aren't really making a line from beginning to middle to end. But, I mean, it's my first attempt at original fiction and it's not like I had a full-fledged idea to start with. I'll tell you that writing original fiction is WAY harder than writing fanfiction. It's also frustrating because you can't really share it with anyone for copyright and such :(
The characters are certainly coming out interesting; I like how they're forming, but the story is just blech. Oh well. Not to jinx myself but it actually looks like I'm going to finish! On my first attempt! Wow would that be exciting.
P.S. I just watched the edited version of Batman: Return of the Joker--more specifically, the darkest part of the movie--and, man...they edited the CRAP out of that thing! No wonder people reading Deep Within were reviewing and saying I got the story wrong. It's so edited it almost completely changes the tone of the scene...of the whole movie...of Bruce Wayne's LIFE!
I'm just...I'm just speechless. Man. If that's what you can do to a 10-min segment in an animated movie imagine what the newspapers are doing with politics and news.
