WRITING.     


The other night I was scanning a collection of anime and manga stored in my computer and indeed great works of art come from novels. At that moment, I realized that I must learn even just the basics of writing literature in order for me to properly express my suggestions on what I want to happen in the manga that my friend and I are currently working on.   The reason why I never write stories in my whole twenty years turning twenty-one is because... well, I suck at it. Telling all this,  you might get the hint that I am forced to engage in this brain boggling activity; I must be coherent.

I am not comfortable in writing very solid and wordy paragraphs, instead I use a lot of phrases separated by a comma or  just list my ideas in bullet form. A friend told me that in her earlier years of writing, she wrote in dialogue style with very little in between descriptions. I told her that I have tried this once and I messed it up. My sister who happened to pick up my piece of "writing" said that she couldn't understand it and asked me to tell her the story orally instead. I guessed it didn't really worked out and from there...  I just stopped.

Now, I am digging old pieces of writing that I have such as reaction papers, thesis papers, mostly school work wherein writing skills is needed and I observed that I lacked eloquence. My sentences are sloppy and the arrangement of ideas tends to jump or skip.

I don't know how to engage myself in this activity again. Writing fanfictions could be a solution, but the problem is I don't have a fandom to write about. If I were to write fanfictions, I will not get it read and critiqued by people I know to avoid biased comments.
