Do you have writer’s block? Vent about it here. Is someone being unfair regarding writing? Vent about it here. Are you un-satisfied with your writing work? Vent about it here.

Well, here goes. I’ve been trying to write a novel for almost 3 years now. I keep cycling through ideas, all which seem great at first. I originally intended to write a sci-fi about aliens in co-habitation with humans, which leads to a war after centuries of mistrust between each other. Then I decided to do a paranormal comedy. It was really just a bunch of dirty jokes, pop culture references, and breaks in the 4th wall. As of recently, I attempted to make a zombie story (Geeks vs. Zombies) but gave up. I ran into the same problem each time. I had absolutely no drive. I didn’t feel any passion about any of the stories. That being said, I have never successfully developed a plot for any of the concepts I came up with. There are a few more ideas I didn’t share, but those were the ones I was the most confident about. I just can’t bring myself to dedicate the attention the hypothetical book deserves. I simply cannot write fiction. I guess in that area I’m more of a follower than a leader. It just leaves me really disappointed with myself.

My dog messes up my day! I wanted to go outside, so I had to put him in his crate, (he’s still a puppy so I can’t leave him inside, and since my yard isn’t fenced off, he has to be on a leash, and I didn’t want to deal with that) but he wouldnt

Whoops, clicked post comment before I was done! So, where was I ? But he wouldn’t, so I didn’t put him in, because he’s too big to push in! (He’s over 100 lbs) so I had to sit around, and do nothing! He makes me SOOOOO mad sometimes!!! I finally put him in, but it was hard. Then, he barked the whole time I was outside, so I felt bad for him, and took him out of his crate, and he just started being bad, and destroying things! He’s just now being good… Really bad day.:frowning:

I have these types of problems all the time. Every time I make a mistake, it effects my ENTIRE story! Or at least that is what I have learned. i have help with my novel but sometimes that help gets jumbled up in my head and I lose it (and i dont mean forget it…) I made a mistake recently and i got yelled at… for a simple mistake! People were telling me this, i was getting told that… all sorts of rubbish until FINALLY someone explained but in a confusing way which took me some time to figure it out. I was discourageddue to this one thing… people were calling me names (dont worry, those guys got in trouble for that). I was being told this and that… it was crazy! My friends kept on telling me the SAME thing and that was when i finally understand what they were trying to tell me… But the thing they wanted me to do… i see nothing… i gave up on it straight away cuz itis going to take me FOREVER to learn how to do it first and that isn’t all… I have to PERFECT this and keep training to the point I restart to the beginning. Then they told that this was Important and if I DIDN’T perfect this and all, i would fail as an author NO MATTER WHAT! I am lying to them now, saying that i have been doing it but I haven’t. *Sighs* i finally got that out off my chest
