Don't worry about that while you're first drafting-just get the story down. When it comes time to revise, that's when you can look more closely at the words and do line edits to smooth things out. :)

Nanael OverLock dude, embrace it, so what u want it to be simple, most fantasy authors try making books simple, while that is good it doesn't bring out the complexity and secrets of your universe. Stuff like lord of rings, doctor who and many others are extremely complex if you look at the entire world, so if your books are a big jumble, so be it, just ensure that at the finale there is a big wrap up where everything is explained, that way the readers will be blown away. As for there being too many characters, pfft, look at doctor who, each episode has like a hundred new characters, so why can't others too? As long as u have a core set of a main character with maybe his brother, friend, agent, girlfriend, or whatever, the rest are at the side while readers main attention Is on core characters, for my books I have planned over fifty novels, so far written twelve nad already have like 50 main characters, a big jumble, the way i fixed this is by making the 50 into an army, and the following just keeps growing and the characters are like an elite force of the main character, that way I only need to bring out certain characters when I need to, good luck

On the night of July 7, 1863, Abraham Lincoln gave one of the worst speeches of his life. It was impromptu and clumsy, but it had the germ of a good idea. A few months later, when he was asked to make "a few appropriate remarks" at a dedication ceremony, he dusted off his terrible speech, revised it and kept polishing it all the way up to the morning he delivered it. Due to proper self-editing, one of Lincoln's worst speeches became one of the greatest speeches in human history. It's known as the Gettysburg Address.

I rewrite my stories often and try to find the right version. I can only do that by writing over and over again. Yes, it takes time. But I´ll get there someday. My characters backstory changes also. I have one story that I have been working on for 1 year, the first time I wrote it, is so different from what it is now. One day I hope that my story will be published and that others will like my story

I am a young writer , I am only 11 years old. I wrote a story and it is 17 pages (18 including the credits) and 4,907 words. Half way through the writing I started to think that it didn't make sense and that the things I was writing about would never happen ( I only wright about things that could actually happen) and i just didn't like it. But after a few days of being persuaded by friends to keep going I did and it turned out really well. Did it turn out longer than expected, yes. But all of my friends and family and even my drama teacher said we can turn it into a play next year! But the point is keep going. You never know how it is going to turn out unless you finish it or at least make it the best it can be.

I have problem with constantly coming up with with stories so much so I'm working on two rough drafts right now. I also need help finding a genre from because I don't think my stories really fall under a usual genre of book. since my book is about a group of demon hunters. I've thought about reading a vampire series but the only ones I know of are Twilight. Could you lead me to a good book or even series?

Well if you write about demon hunters and vampires that's Urban Fantasy or Paranormal, depending on the setting. Both are regular genres. If you're looking for paranormal and urban fantasy books, some I've enjoyed include: THE COLDEST GIRL IN COLDTOWN by Holly Black DAUGHTER OF SMOKE AND BONE by Laini Taylor INK by Amanda Sun THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS series by Cassandra Clare I hope that helps!

Don't know if my writing is bad or not, I have not let anyone see my novel yet. Good or bad there is plenty of ut's pouring out of 17,000 in a month I can't stop which I could do the same with pounds

I have my book written in my head, but the problem is I don't use big words like other authors do (when they're describing how he drink his tea or the how's the weather) and my grammar sucks. I also feel weak when I read books, because I feel like I can't be like them, I can't write like them. I just want to finish my book.

Grammar and vocab can both be learned-though you don't need a sophisticated vocab to write a book. And remember the books you're reading have been revised a million times, so don't compare them to your first drafts. You've got this!

Your mood can sometimes dictate how good or bad your writing feels at that time. If you're tired, or have been writing a heck of a lot.

It's the fact that the entire series is a "robot only, no humans ever" setting that I see turning people off--then again, I didn't conceive the idea of this mini series in the first place for other people, but for myself. But I suppose you're also right with the word "utopia" for my extremely niche genre. I suppose I'll have to wait to publish them or market them until I publish a more relatable breakthrough novel just to get my name out there. Then peeps can read it if they like something like that.

So I kind of have this thing that when ever I write I normally start at the end and then the beginning and middle and back and forth because I keep coming up with these cool ideas that happen later in the story. My problem is trying to connect everything together. Most of the time I'll write something near the end and when ever I finally connect everything I have to rewrite that one part because the character didn't have the same emotion as he did when I first wrote it. So that's a problem for me, but the worst is that most of the time after I do my skipping around I have to find a way to connect everything and that gets boring have to write all this filler stuff and most of the time it causes me to lose interest. An example is like when I have a really cool fight scene coming up but I have to write like one or two boring filler chapters before you can get there and trying to write those fillers makes me lose intrest. What would you suggest that I do about this?

How do I write gooder?

+keikanna44 Hey Kristin! It's totally possible to hire an editor before querying, but before you do that I definitely encourage you to find critique partners and trade with them *first*. (Maybe you've already done that, but I'm mentioning it just in case.) The reason I recommend this is critique partners will be able to find issues that you can fix for free, so that if you do decide to still hire an editor (which is fine!) they'll be able to help you polish it up even more, rather than having to focus on the more basic issues a critique partner could've pointed out. If you're not sure where to find critique partners, you can check out this post: avajae.blogspot.com/2013/07/5-places-to-find-critique-partners.html As for credible editors, I actually know quite a few freelance editors!

In the two months of backing away from my manuscript... before jumping back into my writing (especially with NaNo coming up) I have decided to try and see if **Graphic Novel Writing** fits me better. Ive always loved building stories... but the more I try and write the more I feel like Im more of a storyteller and less like Im a writer. The moment I admitted that I didn't think I was a writer... *poof! My grammar and punctuation got worse by the second...Im sure, in some sort of rebellion! No real idea why :/ FB and spell check and typing with thumbs, probably didn't help!) But because I love history and the "hithers and thithers" of way back then, I always thought I would write historical romances. IDK? One day, this last spring, while trying to cheer my daughter up (her school's "creative writing" competition's writing prompt was ADVERTISING! Poor thing! She's 9! Those fun-suckers!!) Anyways, I came up with some bizarre/off-the-wall prompts that I thought would make her laugh. :) One of those became a "shiny new idea" and a good one at that! I had never ever even considered writing outside of the historical romance genre...Nope! Not ever! I read outside of that Genre... but somehow, I thought that was like a thing, that you had to stay in your genre, huh??? How could I have not thought to branch out? Now, Im considering writing a Middle Grade book! I am testing the boundaries and my limits. I want to try on all of the literary hats!

I'm kind of shocked, looking back, that no one ever even suggested it (writing) to me as a career choice. I find my self seriously envious of the people who talk about their thousands of journals from about the time they could first write and all of their supporters of the craft while growing up. ;/ I have found that getting my daughter started in writing has been taking some of the sting out of the missed "Bookish/Writing" life...

And I honestly don't think you've missed a thing. You started writing at exactly the right time for you. :) Funny thing about journals: I have literally never been able to keep one consistently, even after I started writing seriously. I have one kind of now that I update every couple of months but that's about it. lol As far as graphic novels go, I've only read two (yep) so proooobably don't have enough experience with them to say anything meaningful.

Her MLP's are out of this world!! ,) As for Literary Hats, I'm not exactly sure where I picked up the term, but what I mean by it is... umm like: poetry, different genres, screen writes, plays, songs, full length, shorts, and novellas... fan fiction, blogging, graphic anything... lol even pop up books and I'm sure theres plenty more. IDK, hehe anything outside of the knee-jerk "If I wrote something, I'd write this.." bit. Anything that would be something I had not ever thought of doing or even that I had thought of but thought that that would not 'fit' me. Even when I was writing my Historical romance I found myself trying to push the limits and try and change it up in any way I could. I have the Antagonist narrating the story, in conversation with one of the protagonists daughters, well after the actual story takes place. Doing that zoom in and come to first person thing when recalling the past. Meh, probably because I imagined the story like a full blown movie in my head. lol

I've just had a depressing fit that I don't think I cannot write anything right at all. I've been writing since I was 11 and I haven't gotten anything completed or published at all. And when I take it to people to critique, it just brings me down and want to give up. And what's more, sometimes I even start all over again from the f****ing beginning of the book just to write it over again. I don't know what to do and I just feel like giving up and I don't want to. But I don't want to publish a cringeworthy disaster. Can someone help?

Firstly, I'm so sorry you're dealing with depression-it's super hard when our brains work against us. Secondly, don't give yourself a time limit! It doesn't matter how long you've been writing without publishing-it took me ten completed manuscripts to get an agent and a book deal, and it's taken other published authors even longer! So don't take how long it's been for you as a sign you're a bad writer or anything like that-everyone works at their own pace, and that's okay. Lastly, what helps me with revisions is not looking at it as "oh my manuscripts sucks" but instead looking at it as "if I fix these things, I can make my manuscript even better." That helps me really bring some joy into the revision process because it can be really cool to watch your manuscript improve over time, sometimes into a story even better than you originally imagined. I hope that helps!
