Writing style
Jan. 18th, 2015 02:07 pmI am embarking on a new mission.
My mission? Fix my dang writing style.
It feels so clunky. I always seem to be using unnecessary words and I think I may suffer from wordiness. I'm trying to adapt to writing in a more concise style. Use as few words as possible in order to convey something.
I was never particularly good at NaNoWriMo. =/ I'd always go crazy with unneeded words, describing everything that happens and using lots of words to try and fill up that 50k quote. 50,000 words is just too many.
I suck at thinking of enough plot to fill out 50,000 words. What I lack in plot, I make up for with oodles of writing.
I'm going to be experimenting with a new fic. Actually, it's a rehash of something I tried to write a few times now. In the end, I just have lots of drafts and unfinished chapters lying around.
And, um. I'm going to use a secondary account because I'm kinda afraid someone's going to go to the AO3 tag one day and go "Ugh, this Rincchi person's totally taking up the whole page with her fics." e_e Just waiting for AO3 to send an invite code.
Let's see how well I do with changing my writing style.
Now I have to tackle this chapter I've written up and try and erase as many dialogue tags as I can. Fun~
Mission, start!
