Curse You, Writer's Block!
December 19 2006
So I finally get a break from school, so ready to write away, wanting espeically to primarily focus on my novel that I have been working on for several years.
But I am so stuck.
Yep... it's writer's block.
I don't need story ideas... what I need is more... more things that can happen within a story to keep it flowing. Like conflicts, topics to cover, etc. For some background info, the novel is supposed to (unless I change my mind, which has happened many times in the creation of this story) take place within the span of a year, and believe me, it's really hard to cover such a long period of time! It focuses on four main characters. They are in high school (juniors at first and then later seniors) and each of them has like a main conflict/issue I am focusing on, but I need some other ideas for things that pop up. Anyhow, in either September or October, a high school shooting is going to occur, and so everything before that is part of the normal routine of the characters as well as building up that moment. So if you're feeling sort of creative or whatever today, feel free to leave me some ideas!
P.S. Break from school = bliss!

the whole "astroid is about to hit the earth and who will save us" is always a good plotline to add suspense and conflist to any novel... seriously. seriously.

write nathan in as the almost superhuman character that has been studying the issue for years and is prepared to keep the asteroid from destroying the entire earth!

asteroids aren't near so interesting as the anti-Christ taking over the world. write me in as a character!
