Default If I wrote a novel... - 08-26-2010, 06:56 AM

This is what I would put on the back cover...
(Though I doubt I would ever finish it since I'm an extreme procrastinator and am highly unmotivated...)

KISEKI'S DIARY
What would you do if you possessed the power to change reality?
What would you do if you could make anything come true just by wishing for it?
Then, much later, what would you do when you find out that your power wasn't a blessing, but a ghastly curse?
The price to alter the present is a future shrouded in a mist of misery and death.
This is the story of a young woman who possesses such a power.
She realized, too late, the consequences of using her wishes and soon lost every single person who was ever dear to her.
Afraid of "affecting" others, she spent her days alone, hiding her heart from the world.
Soon, she began to blame the world for her troubles. She began to hate and resent the world.
Day by day, that resentment swelled and grew.
Then, on a day that she could not contain her hatred anymore, she made a wish for the world to die.
This is a story of a girl's loneliness and sorrow.
It is a story about how a girl, who hated the world with all her heart, learned to love the world and believe in it again...

Wow! Good story there. I'm curious about the outcome. The process on how she learned to love the world, humanity and nature. Let me have a read once you've finished writing it. Hehe!!! Or you can post it up here!!! XD

Sounds emotional. A little bit like the past of Archer from Fate/Stay Night. Just read its visual novel.

There are a lot of successful authors who say the same thing (procrastinator, unmotivated), about themselves. Don't focus on writing a novel. Try a short story first or perhaps even a podcast novel. With a podcast you can write a chapter, podcast it and receive an incredible amount of feedback from listeners. Check out the podcast for 7th Son by J.C. Hutchins for a representation of an awesome podcast novel. You could even write a single chapter and post it here. I have no doubt you would receive a great deal of input.
Remember one of the most important skills you can develop as an author is to write everyday. It doesn't matter if you know what your going to write, just write.
So stop screwing up my high score on Simon and start writing. ":}

As a basic exercise, try this:

Get a sheet of paper and a pen, and just begin continuously writing. If you can't think of anything particular to write, just write 'I am writing'. Make sure that you don't stop writing at any point during the exercise. Stop when you finish the page.

Do that every now and then to just get yourself into the habit of writing. Works like a charm.
