I often think that if you can't get excited about the story it's for good reason. I'm not saying that's the case this time, but maybe your muse is bored...? It's happened to me numerous times, and I just figure the idea isn't robust enough for me to want to work it all the way through. |

I totally agree. I've scrapped some because they just weren't any good. Sometimes though I think the story is good, but I just can't decide which way to go with it. It's hard to wrap my mind around the ideas I want to share and then uniquely describe them. Usually the problem is I'm too wordy and I can't seem to pare down the story. |

Trouble with this one is, I know exactly where I'm going - but it isn't coming out right. Feels like slogging through mud...and I like the story. Just having a lot of unexpected trouble. Maybe it's because I know exactly where I want it to go, instead of letting it take its own direction, like I normally do....? |

That could be. I find if I have an idea I really like and I mull it over too many times before I commit it to paper it kills it dead. I think there has to be an element of exploration. |

I think part of my problem is I try to write it out all ahead of time in my mind and it's overwhelming. I just have a hard time rewriting the whole thing later if I need to make changes. I also still have trouble really conveying the emotions I want to convey - my writing just isn't up to what my brain is

Yeah, that's a huge problem isn't it? Something works so beautifully in your brain and when you commit it to paper it's about 1/8 of what you thought it was going to be. Brains do that - they 'fill in the blanks' in our consciousnesses. It never really was better thought out in your head - it's just your brain making it seem better than it was. I think everyone deals with that problem. I bet even Leonardo Da Vinci felt that way! |

It's like when you have a dream - it makes total sense at the time and then when you wake up and try to explain it to someone, it's totally whacked. You're probably right - what's in my head just isn't good enough for paper yet. |
