Subj: A mostly C&R centric post about my troubles of writing stories. Posted: Sat Dec 05, 2009 at 02:58:42 pm EST (Viewed 388 times) | ||||
I've been trying to figure out what write for sometime but I just can't seem to come up with anything. I sort feel like the well has run dry. The only thing had managed to write was the sort of depressing story entitled "Sign of the Times?" most of the way down the first page & that sort of depresses me that I the only thing I could manage to write was a thinly veiled story about how I can't come up with anything new stories & feeling the group is dying. I sort of feel that I should be doing more here but I'm not. I should be reading what people are posting but I'm not & I'm sorry. I know that might not mean much to anyone. I've tried to come up with further adventures of my characters but I got nothing, even those things that I'm in the middle of stories with. Case in point: Chad, Ronnie, Catherine & Jane. I've got all 4 of them in the middle of a story/stories. Back in April I started a story called: Chad & Ronnie: Fugitives which was to be my way of getting around to my last big idea surrounding the 2 characters: Their origin. I've had a half thought out Origin for the 2 of them for sometime & it has sort of colored how some of the stories over the years have turned out. It's also colored how I write certain characters related to the stories. So, I wrote out a prologue & tow part of the story before going into an slightly related interlude, which I added in since it was another idea I had for the Chad & Ronnie mythos for sometime & hadn't figured out how to use it but then had it so I added in. And that is where I left it! Chad & Ronnie still on some mystery trip, a group of well dressed men claiming to be with Ronnie's family looking for him but having no idea who Chad was, Catherine in Comic Book Limbo & Jane in some other place with a Tarzan like character. Also, what happened to Little Cat? I had a few idea (at one time) of what Catherine was to be doing in CBL & had some ideas for the end of the story. But had no idea how anyone would meet back up with each other. There are my other characters that I've tried to come up with stuff for. - Semi-Transparent Lad & friends were last seen during Forest Week after a 2 year absence somewhere in the Oregon woods searching for Vampires. Did they find any? I don't know, I never finished the story. - Ham-Boy is God knows where. I tried to come up with ideas for him but every time I come up blank. - Lee Bookman is around, doing his thing. Don't really have any ideas for him, much like Ham-Boy. I thought about killing Lee off once more. Done it at least once or maybe twice. During his death the character seemed to progress quite nicely. Also, if he did die: I could post those few stories I have of the Moon Public Library's back-up plan in case of his death. What those are have been mentioned a time or two in a few stories. I think that enough of my ramblings.
