Help!

I hate my story all of all of a sudden. I was going gangbusters, and then, pltthhh.

I think I'll chock it up to being a newbie to this, also, next time I need to flesh out my story a little more than I did.

Anyone else with this issue? Do you think I can overcome this?

I'm under 10,000, but not by far.

I'm having the same problem. Writing a prequel to last year's is starting to have downsides... I keep mixing up names (wanting to put the names of the MCs of last year in the place of the MCs of this year).

And last night my "alien" characters decided to speak in their language...which kindly reminded me how very much I hate it when they do that. Translating it is sooo time consuming (to the point that it's teh last thing I do before signing off for the night, lol)

I think it's just a normal week 2 thing. Hopefully things will perk up soon.

Good God, I'm glad I'm just writing in English! I don't think I have it in me to translate "alien!"

Lol by the time I finished, *I'd* be speaking alien, and they'd lock me up in the loony bin so I could gibber madly and bounce off walls without hurting myself.

Come to think of it, I could stand to do that now...

Lol, well, translating Alien->English isn't a problem, cuz I already have an idea of what it is they're saying, it's English->Alien that's troublesome. Silly me for coming up with such a strange and annoying method, lol
