For the past week I've been writing a story on my own on my computer.
I've gotten one chapter written already and I'm starting chapter two.
I've still gotta go back and read over chapter one, make any corrections
and change things a bit. I wanna try to make each chapter kind of longer
but I can't seem to make it as long as I'd like. Books I read have chapters
that are 15-25 pages or longer. My first chapter is approximately 7-10 pages
long, depending on how big the paper is that it would be on. Right now its on
word pad on my desk top so its just one giant page/document thing.. lol.
I'm not too sure if this is going to be a long book type story or if its just
going to be a kind of short story. I doubt I could work with it to make it
long enough to be a book. I'm not too sure if I'm ready to share it yet,
though I did have Lynn read some of it when she was over here with the
baby yesterday. She says its sounding pretty good and she made a few
corrections for me, but I'd still like to go back and fix it up, make it longer
and make it sound a bit better before I do share it with anyone else.
I'm thinking of after I get chapter two done and I fix up chapter one some,
I'm thinking I might post chapter one up here, see how everyone likes it,
then start posting it chapter by chapter here in my blog.
To those of you who know my brother, Mallic, you will find that my writing
style isn't like his. His is more advanced and more... supernatural? I'm not sure
what to really call it. But we have uniquely different writing styles, though some
times my writing can be similar to his. The story I've been writing is more
teenage-ish and full of that high school drama. Kinda like the TV show
Degrassi. But I'm making it a lot different so people don't think I'm plagiarizing.
I totally wasn't thinking it sounded like Degrassi till Lynn mentioned that it sounded like
it, though I did have Degrassi on my mind with the new season coming on,
so that might be why too. I'm not sure if anyone will really like it or not cause
its so much different than anything being written on here. That's also one thing
that's kind of stopping me from posting it on here cause I'm not sure if anyone
will really like it. But we'll see where it goes and see if I feel confident enough to
post it.
My mom told me if it becomes a book and I sell it I better buy her a new car. XD
Lol. I doubt it will go that far. I don't really think its well enough put together to
make it that far, nor do I think I could make it to that point. But I'll decide that
later when I actually finish it. (Which will take a while. Its actually been a few days
since I've written on it. Real life stuff is a bit more important than a story that
I may not ever finish.) Though today I do feel like writing so I'll probably start
writing on it after I finish this.
So yeah, that's basically what I'm thinking. If anyone would like for me to post it,
let me know. Depending on how many people that would actually be interested in
reading it and keeping up with it, I probably will post it, but the first chapter probably
wont be posted for about 2 weeks give or take. It all depends on how long it takes me
to make a few changes and fix it up and finish chapter 2. I'd like to have two chapters
finished then post one, then finish one, then post one and always have 2 chapters written
at a time. I'm not sure why I want it like that but I do. lol.
Wow.. This turned out longer than I really expected it to. I must really be in a writing
mood... I better go get writing!
