On the FINAL subject of Chapter 3 · 8:40am Oct 13th, 2011
Thank goodness that's over....seriously, you have no idea how much I forced myself to finish this chapter.
For those that don't know why, I'll sum it up rather easily: it was a set-up chapter, one of the most amazingly BORING chapters for a skilled novelist to write.
To explain it better, a set-up chapter is the chapter where the novelist puts together several scenes in the hopes of setting up for future incidents and situations. The problem that proposes though, is the fact that it's a chapter where generally NOTHING happens for the person writing the story. It's really interesting for the readers, don't get me wrong, but the WRITER already knows what's going to happen next usually. This means, this chapter is incredibly BOOOOORING to write. It's a lot like writing about your morning routine, if you catch my drift.
Quite frankly I wanted to do something to spice up this chapter, but I've made sure that Chapter 4 throws more of a curve-ball and remains more interesting to write for myself, as well. I've finished the set-up chapter, now I get to have the fun times again. SO! Enjoy everyone, I hope it becomes foreboding enough for you all.
