Why I'm A Bad Author


Takuma Nuva

523 views

I was going through "My Documents" last night and found many old gems. Mostly stories I started writing but haven't finished. It got me to thinking about all the stories I've planned over the years but haven't done much with, be they short story, epic, or comedy...

Stories I started writing but haven't finished:

 

Action in the Background (epic)

Need For Speed - Proto (comedy)

Overlooked Lover (comedy)

Steak Boy Buys A Birthday Cake (comedy)

Steak Boy Buys A Plane Ticket (comedy)

Toast Busters Episode 5 - S.C.O.N.E.S. (comedy)

Project Sigma

Unsung Heroes - Book 2 (epic)

Steel Scales - Book 1 (epic)

The Haphazard Heroes (comedy)

 

 

Stories I fully conceptualized but haven't started:

Call of Evil - Hazmat (short story)

Call of Evil (epic)

Unnamed Bionicle/Section 8 crossover (epic)

Green (short story)

MLP - Everfree (epic)

MLP - Daughter of Sol (epic)

 

 

You know, I think I have a problem.

Why I'm a bad author:  SHIP ALL OF THE CHARACTERS!

 

... Ship ALL of the characters?  =/

 

(Also I think your problem is that you haven't fully conceptualized your comedies.  I mean, priorities, dude)

You're devoting so much time to being Evil, and not enough to let your creative juices flow.

 

Tak, this is an intervention. We love you, but for you to become the writer we all know you can be... you must wean off the evil.

Everything from both lists is fully conceptualized. I just haven't written a single word for the second list yet.

I already knew which one you'd be in, but I forgot...

Why I'm a bad author:

 

Haven't written anything in several long years.

I wouldn't say that makes you a bad author as much as just not an author currently.

 

I'm a bad author because I suffer from chronic perfectionism and must have everything just right before starting.

I call it "being chicken" when that happens to me. It's supposed to be motivational.

 

Doesn't work very well.

Hah, my list of unfinished and unstarted stories is muuuuch longer.

 

But hey, it shows you have ideas, so good you know you're not running out of those yet, just motivation! :D
