Need watcher's thoughts!
12 years ago
So I'm guessing most of you watch me for the art I have commissioned, but as my profile indicates, I'm a writer.
Or...well, as much as a writer can be that's suffered from long-term writer's block.
I'm looking for ideas on how to break that, and I have two ideas:
1) An hour of writing per day where the goal is to produce a single scene. Quality and quantity don't matter, but the production of content. I'd probably post these for feedback and to hopefully build support from you guys--I'm worried that some people won't like the spam, though....
2) Five paragraph community scenes. What's this? Basically, you guys give me three things to work with: a) character 1, b) character 2, and c) one-sentence description of a scenario. The catch? I'll be picking each one randomly from all the submissions.
What do you guys thing? Any suggestions on what else to do?

Don't start writing the story from the beginning. Try writing it from the very middle, all the scenes that come to your mind. Later, you can connect random scenes with the plotline, like beads on a thread.
