God, it feels like I don’t know what to do anymore with these two stories I was suppose to be working on.
I want to redo Red Reign/The Breakers and finish Red Blizzard, but the more I think about it, it feels like a damn chore!
I like the stories fine enough. It is more like I don’t know where I want to go with it since I keep coming up with different ideas for the plot, story, and characters.
It’s getting tiresome! I know I should write down notes and/or plan my stories by making an outline, but I NEVER stick those things. I am seeing that now!
Jotting down notes, making an outline, and things like that doesn’t work for me and never really has.
I make shit up as I go and hope for the best. I thought I’d love plotting/planning, but that is a lie. Whenever I take notes and outline, it doesn’t last and my mind along with attention goes for “winging it/doing my own thing”.
It sucks because I am starting to struggle a bit while trying to figure out if finishing the The Breakers original then moving onto the remake or do the remake while taking bits and pieces from original along with redoing Red Blizzard is better.
So, yeah, me and plotting/planning isn’t or rather never truly was a thing.
I am starting to see that I rather just go into a story with no real clear sense of direction and hope to the gods I grasp it in the long run, then the problem comes when I find myself overwhelmed soon later. It happened with the House of Naivin story yet I was able to finish that somehow.
I thought I was a planster, the reality is that I was always a panster in some way or form.
Ugh! I want to write but got no clue what to do with these two stories!
Help!
NOTE: I will NOT abandon these stories either. I want to see these to the end and I refuse to give up. I am just having a moment that last for a few days.
Suggestions? Advice? Thought?
