I'm just not sure I have the inspiration or discipline to stick to it. While I do have stories floating around in my head that I'd like to get out. I don't have one big novel size idea, and I'm not sure I'd get very far without that. <br /><br />Mhorgrim - That was precisely my intention, to make a tab for my other writing and stuff not related to WoW.Amaranthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01331298091576082603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6931837878490458349.post-86410015199284937332011-05-05T10:45:30.727-05:002011-05-05T10:45:30.727-05:00There is nothing wrong with moving your writing be...There is nothing wrong with moving your writing beyond the game. If you keep your main page WoW orientated and your additional writing on seperate tab, that's a solid way to work things. I think Anna did that with her blogs, though she kept them completely seperate. Anyway's I always look forward to your writing, sometimes it gives me spin off ideas as well for my own creativity.Mhorgrimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12477248508719375474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6931837878490458349.post-69758087580736451402011-05-05T09:41:45.923-05:002011-05-05T09:41:45.923-05:00Perhaps unsuprisingly, I totally get this post. I...Perhaps unsuprisingly, I totally get this post. I kinda wish I'd written it... <br /><br />One of the reasons I now run two blogs is that I really love writing. I love my WoW-blog, I love the feeling of being a (very) small part of a blogging community but I also love my non-WoW one for the freedom it gives me to write about whatever I choose to. It's a balance that works well for me. I highly recommend it!<br /><br />Can I also recommend NaNoWriMo (if you haven't already tried/done it) for the push it gives you to just... write? I got on board last year, and although I fell well short of completing it, I did make 30,000 words which I'm still damn proud of. All things being equal, I'm going to try again this year. <br /><br />Also, personally I like your 'voice' but I understand what you mean by it being your 'speaking voice' as I kinda feel that way about what I write. Being so narrative is causing me issues at present as I have to try and switch off from 'blog mode' and write academic essays, which I find unnatural and tough to do. I'm sure it's good for me though...<br /><br />And I hope this goes without saying but just in case it is one of those things that needs to just be said anyways... if you want to bounce writing ideas (or whatever) of anyone I'm very emailable...<br /><br />(OHeh - capatcha was 'skibe' which I mis-read as 'scribe'. This has amused me!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
