My daily life/thoughts in a nut shell! |
| My life!!! |
| Well I had a blog started but my silly self deleted it! I want to first apologize for being away for a bit. My work has kept me busy due to a recent corporate inspection. Good news my store is clean and we scored 94 but this is not why I'm writing this blog. Recently I received a not-so-pleasant review of the story I've been working on, which shattered my confidence. I was told that my main characters have too many problems for them to notice each other. At first, I thought why is that a problem wouldn't they use it to build up their relationship by finding comfort in each other. But I realized the person meant that they have to much going on to notice each other in general. This made me think of the past dramas and shows I've watched. Along with the experiences I've had dealing with mental health. So to that reader a little note: Dear reader, I understand where your criticism came from. However, we mask our problems in life and put on and a fake smile to hide our pain and sadness. This is how we maintain a social life and friends. We can't avoid looking at people and noticing people because well its human nature. When you find your true love you want to confide in them, you want to protect them , you want their burdens to be your own even if you have your own. My character's problems are actually tied in together that's part of the plot! Thanks! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I think my next few blogs I might spend with introducing my characters a bit more helping you guys understand who they are and what they look like! With that being said I am going to go try to find some inspiration for this third chapter. You guys have some awesome fun! |
| Why did you start writing? Writing has been my hobby since high school. It started as simple star wars spoof with my own little OC character. Then, at the time, though, that was just because I had a thing for Hayden Christensen! I tried writing a few of my own stories, but with my ADHD and anxiety, I would create a jumbled-up mess instead of stories. So, I'm using this site to be a better writer. What would you consider your thinking process in creating stories? Um....honestly! Do you remember how Stephen Meyers said Twilight came to her in a dream? That's somewhat part of my creative process, hahaha!!!! It's not just that, though. You can say I'm an oddball who enjoys Asian Dramas, and sometimes after watching a drama, the plot ideas come to me. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hi. My name is Riley. I'm a 32-year-old female who suffers from a buttload of mental issues (mainly ADHD and anxiety). I'm illiterate, so I must rely on Grammarly to help me write. That said, I sometimes have the mind of a little child, so if you read my work, please be kind and friendly to me. Yes, I appreciate the criticism and hope to use this opportunity to improve my writing so that maybe one day, I can bravely sell a book! I also ask you guys to be patient with the chapter release because I have a job that requires me to work 40+ hours. So, I look forward to meeting people and getting to know people! ~Riley  |
