Hey guys,
Thought I should give you a quick update on what's going on with me right now. THIS ISN'T ME DITCHING SHINING STAR!
I know I can't keep saying that I have writers block because I don't think I do. I've had a long hard think about it and I might have worked out what my problem is. So here goes:
My problem is that I've forgotten what my story was originally going to be about. When I started this, after reading a story called Burning Sun by Fire on Punbb I thought it was a great way to express how you feel and get rid of any of those emotions that are building up inside you. So I had a chat with Fire and some other authors and they encouraged me to start writing. And that's kind of how Shining Star was created.
When I was writing that first chapter I was certain I knew where I wanted to take my story. I used to love it when I could sit there by myself and write one and half chapters straight out of my head, but then I started getting stupid ideas (meaning the idea about Jacob and Bella possibly being half brother and sister) and I lost sight of where my story was going. The only problem was because I lost sight I also lost faith.
It was like a domino effect.
Lose Sight – Lose Faith – Lose Ideas – Lose Chapters – Lose Readers.
Luckily I don't think I've quite reached the 'lose readers' stage. Fingers crossed, touch wood etc.
I keep going back over what I have saved on my computer trying to find that thread again but I'm getting nothing and I feel terrible because I'm disappointing people on two websites and I don't want to do that. I don't want to be one of those people who can't finish their story. I've asked Cinta (Lil miss C/Cintagirl99) about what I should do and she suggested writing down any and all ideas I get for other stories cos I'm one of those people who can read someone else's story and get ides of my own.
As a result I am now developing and building another story
I also think that my ideas need food to grow, food that I can get from your reviews and suggestions, so this is me sending out a massive plea. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE REVIEW MY STORIES.
Feedback = ideas
On a happier note.
I love trying new things so if there's something you think I would love tell me. It can be anything, Books, music, films, ANYTHING.
Love to all my readers,
Chloe :-P
