Writer's Fallout Shelter

Hi, toasted. Welcome to W.com.

I can sympathize with your problem. I took the classes, read the books, did the research but it was only when I quit worrying about all that, that I actually started writing. Things like conflict and characterization are important. Grammar and punctuation cannot be tossed aside. But first, get your thoughts, your story onto paper. Then worry about it. That's what revisions are for. You'll find that things like the conflict and the climax are already built into your story (unless you write travelogues, lol.) But if you never write them, none of it is important.

If you've written a story and revised it and polished it and you're still not sure if it's good enough, put it out there for review. People will read it and often you'll find that they'll have great suggestions on how to make your work better.

Scientists have calculated that the chance of anything so patently absurd actually existing are millions to one. But magicians have calculated that million-to-one chances crop up nine times out of ten.
