I've been more or less stalking this thread for about two years, and I finally went ahead and joined. So, here I am, and I have a question for you all:
- Code: Select all
[b]Do you ever have a character, setting, or idea that won't leave you alone, but you can't seem to write a good story? What do you do? [/b]
I have this one character from the MCU that I created about two years ago, and I adore her. I'd love to give her a good story, but the fanfiction I started when I created her just doesn't seem good enough. It's certainly not my best writing, and I'm severely lacking in inspiration. I'd hate to just abandon it (I've never finished a story, and I've been writing since I could hold a pencil, so leaving yet another story unfinished is a terribly depressing thought) but I don't want to trudge on without any real enthusiasm. Any advice?
In another story, I have a good start, and I know exactly where I want it to end, but I have no idea how to get there. Or rather, I have some ideas, plot points, but I'm left without the inspiration to fill the space between, to develop the characters and plot. What would you do in this situation/have you ever been in this situation?
