After not writing much last week, this week's goal has got to be about writing. I'm so close to finishing this book, but for some reason I keep procrastinating. Partly, I think it's because I'm not entirely sure how it ends... Which is really unusual for me. I tend to write my endings very early on in the piece usually so I have somewhere to aim.
This time... Nothing. And I know I have to give my MC something positive at the ending, something that will give him hope that he has a future and that it might be a happy one. I'm just not sure what that thing might be. The possibility of a real relationship with Megan, the hot receptionist who has a crush on him at work? Or maybe someone new? Someone his own age? Or maybe it's not a relationship that he can look forward to. Maybe it's an opportunity?
The problem is, I don't know. And I can't write what I don't know.
So I think I'll have to write a couple of different scenarios to figure out which one rings true for this story.
What are your goals this week?
. It must be frustrating to be so close to finishing and still not know the outcome. Best of luck.
ReplyDeleteWriting the different scenarios sounds like a smart idea. Hopefully one of them will feel right.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with figuring that out. I have a story I've stalled on because I'm not sure what to write next. I have a vague idea of what should happen, but I'm not really feeling it right now.
