When I wrote my latest science fiction stories for the blog, I noticed it: first a lot of documentation work to be able to start. Then, as the need arose, I went back to researching and delving deeper into the topic. #6 – Appropriate working methods I think I found it. When I wrote without method, at random, I wrote rubbish. Years ago I published some rubbish on literary forums and the criticism came. Now there is a method and I feel more confident when I write. My method is to structure the story - even if I didn't do it in the last story published here - to create 5 acts, to establish the climax, the dark moment, the central moment, the conclusion.
I have to locate those points in my plot, and if they aren't there, I have to stick them in. #7 – Apps passionate about your story I don't remember this passion in my first stories. I had little Special Data reading under my belt and I tended, as I think is natural, to emulate the authors I liked and their stories. Now, with hundreds of books read, this passion is there. Now I write if I feel the story is mine, if it grabs me, if they can't help but write it. I have dozens of files with probable story titles, but for the most part I don't know what to write at all. Ideas born on the spot, jotted down and left to die. Their fate already sealed. #8 – Applied in writing Writing is a continuous exercise. Writing is a job. Writing is a habit to have every day. Writing is also a continuous school of writing. I saw the result of years of not writing stories: a garbage story.
By continuously writing about it, however, I saw the confidence in writing, that attitude that makes you be positive towards the story: you know that you will finish it. Maybe not everyone will like it, it could never please everyone, but it's a story that stands up and that you managed to finish. That's what matters. #9 – Hang up the internet app It took me 2 weekends to finish the story 07/20/69 , while in 7 years I wasn't able to go beyond the first 10 lines. 2 weekends spent in the house in the countryside, where I have no internet - my smartphone doesn't even have data traffic. The Internet is the Great Distraction. Use it for documentation, but unplug everything when writing. I'd like to write an entire novel while taking refuge in a wooden house lost in the mountains, without even electricity. Pax et silentium .
