An idea and a scarily poor amount of motivation to follow it through. Well, actually I think I have the motivation, its just the focus I tend to lack. Plus the looming fear that I'm going to screw it up doesn't really help.
I am yet another young idealistic person who wants to author a novel. I have outlined it, and written a total of 175 words. Then I decide to stop and write a blog - you see my problem?
I also practice my writing on projects less close to my heart such as fanfiction. The fanfiction I'm currently writing is 40, 857 words long and I'm still quite early on in the middle of the plot - that gives me hope. The fact I have yet to completly finish a fanfiction story fills me with dread, but I guess with the good has to come the bad.
Well, I will see how it goes and am aiming for a bare minimum of 50,000 words. Of course, then I have to worry about it being any good, but I think I just have to take this one thing at a time.
