Whoo. So I began writing again. I wrote a sentence in SSChron then gave up because of writer's block. Typical. And so, like I did in April during the Camp, I fell back to the short story, Starless Night, and began writing a bit in that. And that's what I'm doing right now as well until I find some source of inspiration to continue with my main novel, which I am still proud to say is my longest book ever (though the one I believe will be least likely to be published). Why is it the least likely to be published? First off, it's plot might be to confusing for the majority of people. After reading maybe 25 pages, they'll probably wonder, 'Wait. Why are they doing this and where are they going. Oh, wait... no, I don't get it', and then they'll probably close the book. Yeahh, so that's one reason why.

Also, the book doesn't center around two or four characters like most do; there are too many characters and oftentimes difficult to understand who is on who's side. I have three 'sides,' so-to-say. One side is fairly obvious, beginning with two and slowly adding a few more, and then a few more. And then a new side is slowly introduced, and then the third... and then it gets hard to differentiate between the second and third. Unless the reader is myself and possibly my sis, they won't know it all until at least part 3 or 3.5 when everything is a bit more explicit. And even then, they might have to read back to catch everything that they missed the first time around.

So yeah. I can imagine my book being a TV series, due to its 'arc' style of format, where events are bunched together into mini plots. The mini plots will eventually come together in part 3, as I mentioned before. But I'm still writing parts 1 and 2, so there's still some more writing to go. :) I think there will be part 4 and even 5, as far as things are going right now. Whew. But I'm loving writing it, so even if it's not published, I'll be happy that I even wrote it. As I mentioned before, the book I'm writing right now is a genre I haven't touched before, so it's something fresh. Alright, I'm heading going back to the writing board now!
