Planning a story is a daunting task sometimes

Tue Sep 30, 2008, 5:06 AM
Hrumm... I haven't done one of these before, but might as well start sometime.

I know I haven't uploaded any new fiction lately, besides the ones from my Writer's Craft class, which I wrote half a year ago. That doesn't mean I've given up, though. Heh, No chance of that anytime soon.

The real problem I've been having lately is too many ideas, and not enough time to organize them all out into a coherent plan of a story.

I have been toying around with one idea that may result in some new fiction soon, however the idea as it currently has manifested would result in a far longer piece of work than I have even currently made. We're talking novel size here.

So, I see some potential in that one, and I want to get it down on paper the best I can, which means actually planning out how the story rolls out, rather than letting inspiration run the plot. Which is my problem. I can't find a way to get all the story threads to mesh together, and the current version of it, which is VERY short, is more jumbled than a fallen tower of Jengas.

Hopefully I can get a bit of order into the mess, but don't get hopes up of seeing it uploaded in full. I may give a preview chapter up once I have the end result, but odds are I'll end up sending the manuscript over to Baen Books for review... and possible publishing.

For those who just want to read anything, and I mean ANYTHING written by me, I'll be uploading converted RP logs onto the site from my most recent endeavor. These will be the tales of my NEXUS roleplay Faction, the Tarnov Isolat, which my aforementioned work of fiction will have a vague, or maybe not so vague in the end, relation to.
The Nexus is a sci-fi roleplaying group on the game Furcadia, which I run the forums for, located here. [link]
