Re: Writers circle!
(Anonymous) 2014-01-15 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)For me, it's just the sitting down and writing part. I think it takes practice to sit down and be able to write, rather than sit down and feel uninspired. Occasionally, with favorite fandoms, I was able to pump out thousands of words a day without even caring about words, because I was so excited about the characters and story. I've felt that way about original stuff sometimes, but I think the notion of "I want to publish eventually" makes me more nervous about what I'm writing, rather than just writing because it's what feels right to me.
Re: Writers circle!
I don't know if you'll still be checking for responses by now, but I think being excited about the characters and story like you said is the best way to go. A lot of writers talk about cultivating self-discipline, but I prefer to manufacture enthusiasm. If I'm not excited about what I'm doing, I change it so that I am. Of course it takes practice to know when you need to make a change and when you're just in a bit of a slump and need to remind yourself of why you loved the idea in the first place.
