I've been greatly rethinking my idea to share my story on here with y'all (or at least the story that I'm sharing). It was my most recent stories that I've written (although I never can quite see a full story through for some reason). But when I started writing it, the story was more of a therapeutic exercise after a break-up. I had forgotten how personal and raw the story felt and while sharing on here I can pretend like no one is reading it, I still don't exactly feel that it is completely appropriate to share. It makes me feel extremely exposed (although I guess that is not necessarily a bad thing) but there are so many feelings that I had forgotten were attached to this story. It makes the editing process a difficult one because I know that some things don't sound correct but I still want to keep some of those things just because I don't know how to replace them and I don't want to cut them out completely.
I am tired of disappoint y'all. I had such a bad week with migraines that I still don't have this next section edited as much as I would like. Not to mention that of all my half-done stories this is the newest and least perfected. (I usually get writer's block at the end of every chapter and edit my story all the way through to get my juices flowing again.) In the foreseeable future I am afraid that I am going to continually end up with an apologetic post on the Saturdays I am supposed to post my story. Believe me, I find this all very heartbreaking and I hope it does not stop you from continuing to check my blog on a continual basis. I'm hoping that I can just put posting a scene every other week on hold for a bit (I'm thinking for the summer, but we'll see how everything pans out). However, I thinking when I start back to posting my own writing I will change stories. I hope that doesn't disappoint you too much I think I'm going to call the story I have been posting a wash for now because while it was therapeutic at the time, I don't think I have truly created three dimensional characters.
However, I don't mind posting a final version of a one act screenplay I've written. If you really want to read something.
