I would tend to agree with you when it comes to the idea of identity; I would call myself eclectic. Being so makes it hard to gather pieces into volumes or short books. Quite possibly I will eventually have to focus on one genre and stick with it.
working on three projects. one comic book second on my book which is fist draft of second chapter. and third a scene in a polititical thiller which is is still working process which haven't decided on the medium yet
Writers are often classed into two labels. Pansters/discovery writers who write as they go and discover the story as they write. This style is stronge with characters and weak on structure. The other one is plotter. Plotters tend to plot or preplan their stories. There are debates on which is right one. The truth of the matter is that they are both in he right. I am a panster by nature and realized i need to add a bit of plotting eliment in my writing and create a hybrid writing style. It is a difficult journey for me as i have old habits and stuck in certain mindset but i know i will eventually prevail.
they say there are two types of writers plotters and pansters . i think i am a panster on top of that i have dyslexia this makes harder to write. i do get ideas plenty of of them but getting these down is so hard.
i have read that some writers have problem with ideas. for me that not an issue it is total opposite i get too many ideas that at times it is distracting
what is is my writer identity, i have been questioning myself about that a lot lately. you probably wandering what i mean by a writers identity. for me a writers identity is tied to what they write the type of stories fiction or otherwise. i am huge fan of scifi and fantasy type genres. and i have been attracted to supernatural romance too that have done subtly like the author sherrilyn kenyon . i am attempting scifi and fantasy stories, for my first try i wrote on the fly and thought it would be fantasy but ended up supernatural crime type story. i think i am at a stage of writer life where i am an a chameleon type writer. for me that means i don't write any particular genre but whatever a genre the story ends up being. so my identity for now is chameleon.
as dyslexic individual my whole life i have been scared to expand my wrting skills some way to the point writing on the fly was my choice now i decided to slowly and surely world build and plot in baby steps to see how it effects my writing for my main project i think i need to but am i too stuck in my old ways to try only time will tell i findthe thought of world building overwelmoing and scary yet i believe have started by describing my characters in profiles here hoping this works
as a person who no focus due my dysability i use writing software mynovel this not a plug that particular sofware it is the right one for me that's all some may argue why use it it keep my thoughts all in one place plus such writing software at least this one allows to use ms word to edit chapters . i am wring in baby steops but it is rewarding
