My Writing Style 2 · 11:15am Feb 19th, 2015
For those who are reading my first story, THANKS! But I'm sure that you may have notice however is that...
MY WRITTING SUCKS! (maybe that should be the title for these blogs)
In a previous post, I say that I'm pretty much rely on spellcheck and it doesn't help grammar, yada, yada, yada. It also doesn't help point out that you were using the wrong word (thank you Isyrion).
Let me tell you the reason. I was told: "If you can't spell the word, sound it out the word." So I write the word how I think it sound... and more often it's the incorrect spelling. So I spellcheck for the correct word and that what I got. The only thing that I solidify that it might be the right word is that I do a quick google search and if it isn't the word I had intended, I scramble around the spelling until I find it.
Another problem is that when I write words, I accidently leave words out. As I write, I'm saying what I'm writing in my head. I thought it making sure that I'm writing what I wanted. NOPE! It just tricking me to make me think that I written the word whereas I haven't. I hope I'm not the only amateur writer who has that problem.
Anyway, I didn't add another blog post to write more of problem (Too Late!). In my author's note of my latest chapter, I wrote that I didn't like writing stories with dialogue or description. In fan fiction, you are already using characters and a world that already have been establish and fans of the source material would find it redundant to read a description on a character they already have a picture of. The only thing that doesn't excuse, however, are character's action's and emotions, actions within the setting and any original material (whoever reading this says "we already now this so move on", shut up! I'm trying to be educational).
If I can write exactly how I wanted it, I write nothing but the actions in the story and any character's if need be. I ignore any character dialogue and let the reader imagine the dialogue for the themselves. For example:
The consoler entered the room and introduce himself as Sir Marks. He's a bit of hypocrite because he can be as laud as he want to be, but doesn't like when the CMC were. Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo introduce themselves, but when they mentioned that they are the Cutie Mark Crusaders and how it was simular to his job, Sir Marks was offended. To test, he ask where cutie marks comes from. *Insert tale of the "Little Cutie" here* (as in, I write the story in) Once they do, he told them that they're right... but also that the story is false
So if I had it my way, I can make my chapters a lot quicker. But I feel, If I want to be professional at this (and be more populare than My Little Dashie), I think I should do the right way.
