Talk like an open book
Oct. 13th, 2010 03:08 pmSo one exercise I like to do, to get my focus on writing in check, is to make a list of the things I like to write about. Everything from the deeply thematic to the stupidest little details, character tropes and setting details. So here, I will stream of conscious a list first, then try to make an order of it afterwards. Later on, I can figure out if/how I can incorporate as many of these things as possible into my Nano.
This exercise is way super helpful to me, especially when I get all "BAAAAAAAAAWL I NEVER WRITE ANYTHING ORIGINAL OR INTERESTING, BAAAAAAWL." The point is to write stuff I like, and if other people like it too, then there we go.
( You can probably see where a lot of my RP characters are coming from with this XD )
Okay, that is all I can manage for now. TIME FOR MORE TAGS :D As a bonus, have this Metric song I've been playing on repeat - Gimme Sympathy.
If you intend on commenting on this, you better comment with 5 things that you like to write about <3 Big or small.
