Pieces... I don’t need anyone to save me.  There are too many sunsets I am yet to see, need to see, must see.  But someone cheering me on would help.  Someone holding my hand in love instead of judgement would be nice.   Because isn’t that what we all want? To be loved for who we are and what we are and all that we are, always?  The waves and sea remind me that even when its rough,  I am here to be me and make a difference to those who need to see they’re not alone   as I share the relentless things that have happened to me, that they took from me.   The peace and quiet broken by voices; some familiar, some I can’t place,  calling out the mundane as they go about their day, treating those they encounter   with contempt instead of care, with judgment instead of love.  And I pray that they will be quiet so that I can focus, listen,   only hear the one voice I need to hear in peace.  But this place I find myself in is peaceless cos there are so many pieces,  and I will not rest until I am whole again.   . . Thank you for reading my words. I hope they help and heal you as much as they do, me. .

Lost in NaNoWriMo

Last year I did NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) as a discovery writer. It went… okay. I won NaNo (by which I mean I completed 50,000 words of a story), but what I was left with was a mess. So this year I decided I’d try the other way, as a plotter. And it didn’t work.

Plotter: Successes

I managed to write every day. Not enough, but I did manage to keep plugging away at it.

I solved a couple of major issues. I was struggling with my main character, and I think I have a better version of her now. I also managed to solve some issues around her motivation.

In both years, I got about 10 days in and realised I had some major issues. So all the plotting did nothing to help that. The solution I came up with last year was not a good one. It got me through NaNo, but it left the story in a very odd place and I didn’t know how to fix it. I will say that I think my solution this year is a lot better.

PLOTTER: The Problems

I was lacking motivation compared to last year. I wanted to try planning versus discovery writing, and I think I now know which one of these is for me. I just can’t feel the enthusiasm for the story and every little thing was distracting me and sounded like a better story. That did not happen last year.

I don’t feel like what I am writing is any better for being planned. In fact, I think its worse. I find I can think more on technical things as I know what the scene is meant to do, but as I write by hand, I can’t really implement that well.

I feel like the story is missing something. And because I have it all laid out, that feeling is stronger.

What next?

I’d written around 11k words - getting ever further behind where I needed to be. And then I decided to abandon the project. There had been another option, something I almost considered switching to in October. The plan was to just write 40k words about it. No planning. No preparation. Just write.

I’ve answered the question about what kind of writer I am. Now I need to learn how to make that work.

NaNoWriMo Day 11: As a pantser/discovery writer, I often sit down not knowing what I am doing, what I will write, what will happen to my characters today. Fortunately, I don't have to. I just have to trust that the ideas will come.

Discovery Writing

Discovery Writing #WriterCommunity #WritingCommunity #Writer #Discovery #Writing #DiscoveryWriting #Pantsing #Pantser #Outlining #Outline #FindingThe Story

Hi everyone! I hope you’re all well. Today, I am exploring how to write your story without an outline. I have talked a lot about outlining stories because it has always been the easiest way for me to write; I have to know where my plot is going before I even start to write it. The problem I have discovered with this is that I sometimes get bored with the story if I know everything about it. When…

Hallo du da draußen! #autor_innensonntag Plotter oder Pantser? Uff, wie ich das Wort Pantser hasse. Es klingt abwertend. Ich bin ein discovery writer. Entdecke alles während des Schreibens. Genau, wie meine Protagonisten auch. Auf Patreon gibt es dazu mehr zu erfahren: wieso, weshalb, warum. Fakt ist: plane ich die Geschichte vor, hab ich keine Lust sie mehr zu schreiben. Ich weiß ja, worum es geht. Meine Protagonisten machen eh, was sie wollen. Hab eine schöne Zeit. #discoverywriter #love #schreiben #writing #liebe #bookstagram #rockofbooks #Selfpublisher #zettelwirtschaft https://www.instagram.com/p/CbnYhdxgv-4/?utm_medium=tumblr

Some writers are meticulous plotters, others are adventurous pantsers. But what do you do if neither method works for you? In this video I describe my own style of "plantsing," a hybrid system that combines planning and structure with exploration and discovery.

REAL... I just wanted real in a world so full of fake. I just wanted to heal but you wanted to see me break. I just wanted to be held, but all I got was judgement, without the right to speak, left destroyed and silenced. I bought all the lies you sold, only to become the one who was sold out. I believed you wanted the best for me, but all you wanted was the best of me until there was nothing left to take. And while your actions are not justified, I do hope you are satisfied, because I genuinely wish for you the best of everything, no hurt, no harm. Because despite the world being full of fake, my heart, my soul, my love is all so very real. . . A new poem born from a few lines I stumbled on in an old notebook. Thank you for reading my words. I hope they help and heal you as much as they do, me. .

I saw a bird of prey up high in the sky,

Wishing, I could see the world below,

Through it's eyes; gliding majestically.

It flapped it's wings to soar higher still.

A message to me, to open my mind,

Spread the wings of my imagination.

And connect with my consciousness.

I'll soon discover, it's glorious vantage!

☆☆☆ AUTORENLEBEN ☆☆☆ Die Korrektur von #Elfen1 läuft noch und ich beschäftige mich schon mal mit dem Plot für #Elfen2. ✏😊💭 Dieses Mal nutze ich zum 1. Mal die Methode mit Karteikarten. Da ich häufig merke, wie mich ein ausgefeilter Plot beim #Schreiben behindert und meine Kreativität und Schreibmotivation erstickt wie ein zu eng geschnürtes Korsett, versuche ich es diesmal mit ganz groben Szenen. Die Ideen notiere ich auf Karteikarten (z.B. Person X begegnet Person Y an Ort Z). Welche ich dann am Ende tatsächlich im Manuskript niederschreibe und ausführe, weiß ich noch nicht (außer bei einzelnen Szenen). 😁 Bis jetzt gefällt mir diese Methode sehr gut! Sie hilft mir, mich kreativ frei zu fühlen und gleichzeitig aber ein Gefühl für den endgültigen Ausgang des #Elfenprojekt zu bekommen. 👌😊 An die #Autoren unter euch: Wie geht ihr vor, wenn ihr ein neues #Buchprojekt startet? ☺ #writinglife #schriftsteller #authorsofig #ilovewriting #ideenentwicklung #plotting #discoverywriter #autorenalltag #autorenleben #fantasybooks #romantasy #karteikarten #amwriting #amediting #workinprogress💪

I’m trying a new monthly blog hop on the 1st Wednesday of the month, hosted by the Insecure Writers Group (part of the Readers Gazette). Their writers’ prompt for September 6 is: Have you ever surprised yourself with your writing? For example, by trying a new genre you didn’t think you’d be comfortable in? Why, yes, I have.

RAINBOW ... Real to the core,  Only seeking to help others to heal, to grow, to soar.  Yearning, always, to be the best me that I can be.  Grounded in my truth no matter what,  Because no one can steal my colour or my light.  I am uniquely and authentically me,  Vulnerable and real.  . .

SURRENDER... Your care factor seems less than zero as you lock me out, shut me out, throw me to the wolves and mute my screams with your ignorance, forcing me to bend, but not break. I will not break!!! Because surrender is not defeat, and while I may be the one walking away, you are the one that is leaving.  . . Thank you for reading my words. I hope they help and heal you as much as they do, me. .
