I don’t wanna feel Blue anymore...
Writing has become very important to me lately. I guess I really got to the stage when I felt "Why try to read someone else's stuff and be constantly dissatisfied when I can write my own and make it everything I want"? I know I'm still lacking but as with everything I'd like to think I get better.
Certainly some of the work I've read have been pretty influential. I have read a LOT. But in all these years I remember this one girl from Scotland who wrote Yoosu. I can't say she was crazy good and I was sort of her beta but I liked what she wrote and nobody else did it that way for some reason. Her fics were kind of small and didn't have much of a plot. They were just a collection of scenes, like how the characters met, how thet began dating, how they moved in together. I really liked that. So I guess in a way I want to create something similar. With Tora and Shou it comes easy, the scenes just keep coming.
Writing Part 3 now and it's all around the place. I mean it's a puzzle more than anything. It's a lot like with the poems. First the beginning, then the end, and then working out the middle. I just try to put down, sketch everything that comes to mind and then try to make sense of it. Currently have 11 bits which are mostly just drafts and I need to figure out how to put them into a logical progression, some parts might become separate one-shots and some might make it to Part 4 if there shall be one. So there's only about 1500 words right now so it's a long way to go. But slowly it's taking shape. Trying to make it less fluffy and failing miserably. Not like it'll matter now, I totally gave myself away with two previous ones.
