Ah yes! This is certainty the best time to give my audience a look inside my writing. Below I have posted questions that will be admired with truthful answers about my writing habits. Enjoy!
1. Where do you get your inspiration from to write?
Inspiration. Let me see. Well, to be honest, I have loved to write for quite a while now. I do admire Shakespeare a lot! I believe his work has granted this world a keen sense of literature in which it should be grasped upon!
Although Shakespeare is an inspiration, I would have to say that the number one thing that gets me to write is depression. Sad to say, but true. When I am feeling really lonely or just have no hope, my pencil takes me on a journey with my hand and my brain to a far away place. I get my ideas from everyday surroundings like other writers do and it just makes me alive again. There is hope!
2. What is your favorite genre and medium used in writing?
I have recently written a black comedy. It is a short story. It really depends on the genre. I am not too sure about that one! But, my favorite medium to write in is short story. I love to write a quick ten or so page book in just a day and have it typed out the next. Seeing it completely typed out is wonderful!
3. Your audience has claimed your writing to be 'confusing.' What do you say about that?
When I give a reader a copy of a draft I have recently written, I do not mind what their opinion is. Obviously, it can help me improve. But when the person gives it back and says, "I liked it a lot, but it was confusing," I just laugh! Giving my audience something that gives them not a second to think because the story is addicting is what really makes me proud. Sometimes, they have this fearful look on their face as they are trying to figure out that all I did was write a huge scribble mess on the page. It amuses me. The truth on this part is that I write in depth. A person would have to keep on drilling an endless hole through cement to figure my archaic language out. There is a message waiting to be delivered but the reader will have it stuck in their head for a while until they figure it out. When they do, I usually have one tell me that they get it. A year later they will finally understand and that is what makes me so proud of the way I write!
4. What mediums have you written in so far?
That is easy! Short stories and I have one novel nearly finished!
5. Notebook and then word document. Why?
I am at school or on the go most of the time when I write. Every time I catch an idea, I am able to jot it down with a trusty pencil right away.
I love to write in the notebook before I type anything out so I can visually experience a non-rushing moment. It is easier to see first of all with the lines and to catch any mistakes and change things easier without getting too dizzy!
6. Do you have any advice for other beginning writers out there?
I am so glad this question was asked. Yes. I have some advice for you! This really gets me and a lot of other people out there too (not only writers.) When someone asks for ideas because they are stuck on where to go with their story next, they will go on Ask.com and people with diligently give them more ideas. They say they want to get their so called 'story' published. Are you kidding me? This gets on my nerves.
If you want to get ideas for writing the next part of your story, it is obvious you do not know what a plot is. Anyway, you cannot get that published. Unless you acknowledge all the people that give you the answer to the ending of your book, you will never make it anywhere. Sorry to say, but true.
Here is my advice to you, you may not have "writers block," but you may need to just get away for a while. Recollect your ideas and then you will sit fresh with beginning the ending of your thoughts. It is that easy and you do not have to worry about citing people for their own work.
