Pains of Writing · 7:46pm May 22nd, 2019
I have many story ideas, but currently am focusing on two at the moment. Unfortunately, progress is hindered by a couple of factors.
Number One: Outlining. In School, I learned about outlining the major events of the story for ease of reference. Because of this, whenever I write multi-chapter stories, I have to first write an outline of the story, which can take a VERY long time, especially when looking for filler material. As such, I haven't even started writing the actual stories yet.
Number Two: I recently realized that when I was writing, I wasn't having fun. This upset me because I assumed that, in order to be an excellent writer, you'd have to enjoy it. I'm kind of torn with whether I should continue writing or not. Regardless, I still feel the yearn to write inside me, it's just hard to actually write it down.
Number Three: I'm also concerned with when I should upload new chapters. Some users get really impatient and complain about lack of updates, so I'm wondering if I should just hold off on posting anything until the story is finished.
Anyone who can help with any of these problems is very welcome to speak up.
