My adventure to write stories and learn craft
Today is 31st October 2018. That means there is one day left for NaNoWriMo. I am excited and I hope you are also feeling the same.
If you don’t know what NaNoWriMo is, then few words about it. Every year, during the month of November, a competition is organised. The goal here is to finish 50,000 word novel during that time.
Hello guys. I think just like me, many of you wanted to be a writers. Whether it might be a fiction or non-fiction, the fact that you are reading this meant that the spark is already ignited.
The spark ignited in me around 2012-2013, when I first started to read books on wattpadd. Reading them felt so fascinated that I wanted to write a story like them.
Hello everyone,
Ever since I’ve came across Wattpad and loved the stories over there, I was burned with an urge to write. I used to write a scene for a week or two when I started. I continued it for few chapters, that would take approximately couple of months, and then I stopped the story there.
But then I came across NaNoWriMo while reading one of the author’s books in Wattpad. I didn’t participate in NaNoWriMo that year, or the next year. I tried to pants my way through a novel for couple of months, wrote about 60,000 words and saw that it was going nowhere.
Then I decided to try outlining, write short chapters, after reading couple of James Patterson’s books. I finished the book. But failed to edit it.
The Dark Tattoo was waiting for someone to get her.
She was that of dragon of green colour so dark that you couldn’t recognize her as a dragon, but a spot of dark paint. Since she is normal tattoo, she was a 2 dimensional figure.
