Fiction Snippet

I don’t have a problem writing non-fiction, but fiction is difficult for me. Really really. I’m not quite sure why. I think I’ll blame the Great Red Spot, because I don’t think it gets blamed for enough stuff.

I thought I’d put a link up to 1200 words of fiction that I wrote. I don’t think it sucks, and I hope to actually make a story from it. Hopefully someday I’ll figure out what it is about fiction that kicks my butt so.

  1. Wouldn’t it be weird if you could only get inspired to write really good fiction by doing something extreme? I could just picture someone typing on a laptop while parachuting.

    What I’ll do most often is take something I see, and then make up an explanation about it.

    Sometimes they’re good, sometimes, they’re not, but I find the process very helpful for learning how to write dialog and describe a scene.
