Listen, REMEMBER, this is the PRE-FIRST DRAFT STAGE. It's preparation to START writing your story. So, technically you are on par - it's ALLLLLL supposed to be CRAP right now So if you think it's crap, then you are doing good. It's NOT supposed to be good when you first get it down. Not even the greats get it in one - they do a LOT of revisions and editing. You have to get it out of your head (the lump of play-do) first, then you start editing (shaping the play-do), until it looks somewhat like at ice cream cone, or dog or whatever you are trying to make. Even then, you'll still need to edit and tweak your story until it looks better.
Don't load yourself down with "I'm not good" - because that my friend is crap. Another thing about me y'all might not know yet - don't tell me what to do (tee hee) because I'll just do it... "Do or do not, there is no try" ( and by that I mean write the crap - write a lot of crap, just don't give up after you get the crap out - edit the crap out of it ) ...(ooops, I crossed that line in the sand my friend... tee hee!)
