Sometime in our life, I'm sure we all sucked at writing one way or another. What do you think is the worst thing you could find or that can happen in a story? It could be grammar, mary-sue (perfect characters), bad ideas, out of character, etc~ Do you remember the first time you started writing stuff? (Poems, stories, songs, etc~;) What was it like? How was it? Share some experience of your past work and how you can turn bad into good. I still remember the first time I started writing stories. I had such bad grammar! And I probably still do. -Laughs- None of my ideas made any sense and everything was out of place, a nightmare. My friends (I'm going to specifically mention Kiwi) were the ones helped me as I continued to write, if they weren't there, my stuff would still sound as horrible as I described it.

My old writing for stories used to be very very descriptive for one thing. I took at least a paragraph just to describe the setting of a place. In the past, I was always frustrated at writing poems because I always thought they had to rhyme. And I have to say that it took a me a while to actually become a decent writer like I am today.
The only possivle advice that I can give is that; number one, you have to be totally focused, enthousiastic and interested in your work, if you are lacking in any of these qualities, chances are that you might not finish what you started. Number two, Read, read, read and learn to proof-read yourself. It helps to do this, TRUST ME. And number three, have fun with your stories, if you find that you need a break, take one and immerse yourself in your inspirational muses like songs and whatnot.
I hope this helps.

I suck even more....and I'll give you the PROOF!
My English teacher gave a 51!!!! And because of that, it lowered my year average for competence 3 to a 68! I, for one thing disagree with this damn mark but my teacher thinks I am not worthy to be a writer!!! T^T
Blah, I'll start drawing manga instead. No more writing for me.... | |
