I find myself forcing myself to write something, which I shouldn't do. Instead, writing should come naturally. Thank you for all of your advice! I'll keep it in mind. :)Mori Liihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06617785381976883363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7571831716628489167.post-18151430436554535722013-08-13T11:48:12.351-07:002013-08-13T11:48:12.351-07:00You're absolutely right about that.

When I complete chapter one (which, hopefully, should be later today), I would be honored if you could give it a look over!Mori Liihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06617785381976883363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7571831716628489167.post-76094019742177810492013-08-13T11:27:45.839-07:002013-08-13T11:27:45.839-07:00I tried attempting to do that with blogging and un...I tried attempting to do that with blogging and unfortunately, it didn't help me. However, it just might work for writing novels. The reason why it didn't fare well for me dealing with blogging was because during the time I was losing interest in blogging (^ ^; ) <br /><br />I plan on trying to take your suggestion and see if it helps me. Thanks!Mori Liihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06617785381976883363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7571831716628489167.post-48636214448454521112013-08-12T19:14:33.200-07:002013-08-12T19:14:33.200-07:00Don't panic.

...Don't panic. Writing is not a simple thing. <br /><br />Sure, it might seem like something is wrong with you—but just remember—writing is about quality more than anything else. Articulation and good composition come from being in the zone, you can't force it. <br /><br />Wait until you can focus. Just pace yourself, it'll all come together in time—just try not to psyche yourself out. <br /><br />Nourishment is also important, so make sure you're getting a lot of water (really flush yourself). In addition to that, make sure you're getting a good source of glucose, because that's the brain's primary fuel. <br /><br />I was just on a writing storm myself (just a few months ago), and now I've been at a standstill where I haven't written anything in almost two months. I know I need to get this finished, but I know better than to try and force it. <br /><br />Reading the work of others can help too. I'll link you to a few of my works. I do custom Magic: the Gathering game development, and apart of that is world building and character development. I'm currently working a series titled "Bloodlines of the Orient", which tells the tale of the beginning of civilization, when all Asian people were evolved humans, and they were all one people. It then leads on to explain how they became to be divided as they are today. Since it's an origin story, it ties strongly into Asian mythology—I wanted to explain the mythology in a more realistic way.<br /><br />You can follow these links and read the character storylines by clicking the "Design Notes and Highlights" tab in the first post. There you should see the character names, and within that tab will be their storylines (and game design notes). <br /><br />http://tinyurl.com/nyvz4z9<br />http://tinyurl.com/mctsgzb<br />http://tinyurl.com/kuywms3<br /><br />Their cards and images are also there, so you can check those out too (in order to get a better picture of it all). I really hope it can inspire you! And just remember—don't rush yourself; the best work will come natural, you've just got to be patient and wait for it.<br /><br />If you liked those, here's an extra.<br /><br />http://tinyurl.com/n5ab2c9<br /><br />You can also follow me on Twitter.<br /><br />http://www.twitter.com/xKev1nxx<br /><br />;)<br /><br />By the way, I literally lol'd when I saw that image of Kannagi. It painted you in such a cute light. I think that Anime was well done too, I really liked it a lot.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14296609484267863867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7571831716628489167.post-91627372781616141462013-08-12T18:59:56.268-07:002013-08-12T18:59:56.268-07:00I eventually got back to writing.

If you'd like I'd give your manuscript a look over if you want.Sheena-kay Grahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17712661419116636671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7571831716628489167.post-76389520313846527892013-08-12T18:34:13.695-07:002013-08-12T18:34:13.695-07:00I find that it helps me to create an actual schedu...I find that it helps me to create an actual schedule with mini goals in in. That way instead of just thinking "I'm gonna work on my novel regularly!" I actually know which days and which aspects I'll be working on. That's how I manage to self-study languages all summer without getting too lazy or distracted and I can track my progress without it being completely aimless or too arbitrary (。☌ᴗ☌。).<br /><br />But that works for me because I work better with more structure, I dunno about other people.Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11914927725245623647noreply@blogger.com
