Beware of the Nargles
I'm in desperate need of a brain. Where can I find one?
I just keep having so many problems with my WIP. I think I know what I am doing, then my brain decides to go on a holiday.
I tend to half plan, and half wing it. Then I don't know how to get from what I had planned for chapter, or section, or whatever, from my winging. I can't seem to think of anything decent to call anything. It all sounds stupid!
I never seem to finish anything. Is that because I am rubbish, or because the idea isn't right? Should I scrap it, and move on to something else? Should I just not bother trying to write at all? Is Fantasy too difficult? Am I too stupid?
(I joined this site because I wanted to talk about books, not because I wanted to talk about writing. I hadn't actually looked at my WIP for months, then coming here inspired me to get back into it. And now I'm all of a dither!)
How do other writers get going? Is this common? Does anyone just write random chapters (or whatever) and then piece them together later on? Or is that just a mental way to do things? I'm just so frustrated with my stupid, dyslexic, brain!
(Hope it was ok to post this here?)
