In Between

September 21, 2008

 

So far, so good. I’m currently working on a novel that borders between the movie, “Kiss Kiss Bang Bang”, and the television show, “Heroes”. I’m going to correct you right there. No, my novel writing isn’t that superb, yet, but the fact is I’m aiming for the movie’s atmosphere and the tv show’s style. It’s not a “good conquers evil” type of story, at least that’s what I’m hoping for. It’s more on philosophy where evil is just a mindset and good is usually tainted by our own vices. That kind of thing.

It’s been weeks, according to the Document’s properties, since I’ve started it and I did edit it a week or so, adding more information as I went on, but I’m now finding it hard to finish it. I still am on the Prologue.

I’ve already written the chapters guidelines for it, like a blueprint, but that thing isn’t even finished yet. I’m aiming for 25 chapters, including both the Prologue and the Epilogue, but I’ve only inputted the first five chapters and the last four ones. I’m still on the Prologue but I’m already stuck.

Caffeine hasn’t helped as much as I expected it to and school’s only making it worse. Is my inability to finish something, my laziness’ fault or is it more because of my “extracurricular activities” like school and the RP? Maybe it’s because I’m still a kid and no matter how good people say I am, I’m still a novice in the world of writing. Either way, I’m not going to quit. Like a friend says, “If you quit writing, then I’m going to kill you.”

One last question before I poof: How do you kill a guy, who doesn’t want to die, dramatically and without people getting the idea that you did it?

Tip toe, tip toe
The shadows creep
Towards a sad tomorrow
But Death is asleep.

A mournful glint
vanquishes the shadows
Leaving a black tint
As it haunts and follows.

heheh, keep at it Jofer. The begins can often be hard to start… I always tend to get stuck just before the middle. But then I can’t talk procrastination, school and what not… I even have started a dream journal and I am behind. My blog is way out of date. I think I am losing my mind (again) I can’t concentrate on anything important. Anyway I am off for a week so don’t do anything stupid :P
all the best with everything ;)
