Wasting Away
Great. Another repeat of last holidays and I'm bored to death. Well actually that's a lie. I'm quite amused staying at home on the computer...same old, same old. But it still feels like I'm wasting away the holidays. Oh well.
Apart from this, I've started moving on a bit with my fanfiction. For the last 8 months I've just been lost, and I'm not saying I'm found, but that I now know where to go. My stories in the past have been nothing but rubbish; to be honest and completely frank I'd rather delete them then read them again. I don't know how all my reviewers could stand it. I apologise.
Now I'm only working on Those Who Remain, going through slowly and planning every aspect of it so I know what I'm doing. This Ranma fic was supposed to be my best work, obviously it wasn't. In the beginning I thought I put so much effort into it, but it all came out so fast, I realised it was just as bad as all the other mounds and mounds of rubbish fics. Now, I think I know better.
I'm taking a slightly different approach this time (and I'm saying all this to explain why so long a hiatus, even though I hardly think it's an excuse), trying to elongate it and build the conflict. I just wish I knew how to do all this when I started. But I'm a pretty good 13 year-old writer, if I do say so myself.
And all this doesn't mean I've given up on Permanent. Unlike Those Who Remain I really like the plot; that is, once it gets past the third chapter. That's where it truly starts. Or have I just ruined everything? Anyway, I wanted to write this story, more for my personal satisfaction rather then everyone else's satisfaction. I guess, that's what Those Who Remain is for. But the bottom line is; both of them are shit.
So meanwhile I haven't looked at Permanent (and I promise I will) I'll probably re-phrase it and sort the scenes differently. I also have to get rid of the annoying Dagger part in the beginning...hate it. So yes, wish me good luck.
