Writing

Reading, sketch­ing and cre­at­ing beziers all are great fun. I’ve wanted to add writing to that equa­tion for a while now, but for it’s only been frus­trat­ing. I don’t really have any prob­lems cre­at­ing sen­tences and para­graphs, it’s more of a con­flict­ing theme or entire subject issue. Sit down some­where, write furi­ously for an hour and a half without notic­ing the time go by and then that’s it. Cre­ative juice has run out and I need to do some­thing else. Next time I feel pro­duc­tive I sit down and I can’t con­tinue where I let of. It’s as if what came to mind has just gone com­pletely and thus I write, if I do, some­thing com­pletely dif­fer­ent, which next time I find no way to inter­re­late.

I’m not sure whether I should give up writing any­thing unified and just write short stories, which I still can’t even do as what I end up with after every burst of pro­duc­tiv­ity are just scenes. Maybe instead I could just keep them all and one day go over them and somehow combine the scenes and ideas plotted down together with some more writing like a jiggsaw puzzle.

The last idea sounds rea­son­able. But that takes so long…

    Some­thing similar is with me. I tend to have ideas and I seem to be able to put good sen­tences together, but to write some­thing that will sound pro­fes­sional and make good points, but wouldn’t just be about pouring present thoughts like in a blog entry it can be rather hard to stay focused on that.

    But maybe that’s a mistake. Maybe we should just orga­nize our thoughts for a bit, writing nothing except pos­si­bly some notes at that time and then just pour those thoughts using notes as reminders. Natural writing is prob­a­bly better than forced one.

    Anyway.. just some thoughts.. :)

    Cheers Daniel
