Weekly Reflection - 2/18/19

This week I have done nothing productive to be honest. I want to finish up my story but writers block at its finest for my SIP. I still have the storyline in mind but my story is at a awkward part where I really don't know where to take it. I am trying to figure out a way to overcome it but, so far it only leads me to finish up some old fanfics that have been sitting in my GoogleDocs. 

But when I actually can come to a conclusion, I'll work on my story again. But as of right now, nothing is happening even though something needs to happen.

Relfection - 2/11/19

Today's reflection is about how I feel about where I am at in my SIP. Frankly, I don't like where I am at because I put my own story on a hiatus for the fact that I'm losing creative juice for the events that happen in between the major plot points. I want to follow along the idea road that I have for the story except there is so much to write for it. 

I sort of feel like I bit off too much that I can chew for the fact that the storyline of my story is long. Wanting to introduce each of the characters, wanting to show the character development and relationships, and wanting to hit each of the key points for my story. I really do enjoy thinking and planning for Gods & Monsters but I don't think I'll ever get to come around finishing where I want it to end at. 

Persephone and Lucifer have a great deal with the story and Alucard has major character development plans. But I can never get to them because I really don't want to rush through writing the story. I rather have something completed with maximum effort than a turned in half-assed job of a crappy story that makes no sense.

Weekly Reflection (I'm horrible at keeping up with this) 2/4/19

Lately I haven't been working on my NANO story in such a long while mainly for the fact that my mind has been elsewhere. Now I'm not saying that I have lost interest in my story, I have plenty of ideas and know where its suppose to be going but, I haven't touched it in ages. Mainly because of the fact I don't know how I want to word the things I see in my head. I'm having the hardest time in trying to touch and write it while I've been working on other writing pieces for things unrelated for school. 

Now I'd hope by the time we're suppose to be done with our SIPs, I'm further on the story than where I'm at currently. I want to finish what I have started and planned but so far I'm far from actually having motivation to continue on. Classes have been getting more and more stressful for the fact that senior year is the crucial make-it or break-it of school and I'm being overwhelmed by due dates for everything. I want to expand on my character development with all my characters, especially the dynamic between Persephone and Lucifer for the fact that they have a rockier relationship compared to her friends and their chevaliers. I wanted to express their main struggles and meet their antagonist but I'm not even sure if I'll reach up to that point. 

But I would like to at the least reach near the end by the summer or May. If not, then at the least by the end of the year.

Weekly Reflects 1/17/19

During class I was working on the Creative Writing poster for the Elective Fair so I'm now doing it. My plans for my SIP is to continue to work on my Nano, Gods and Monsters. Whilst doing that I want to attempt to finish the story itself so I an move it into the next phase, and also to work on the character development skills.

First Post - January 14th, 2019

The first entry is that for the SIP is to continue my Nano, Gods & Monsters, mainly for the fact I still have motivation for it.
