Don’t you sometimes get an absolutely extrodinary, mind blowing, such an awesome idea for a story, but you just don’t have enough skill level to pull it off?
Write it anyway.
Write it anyway, write it anyway, write it anyway.
There are so, so, so many reasons:
- You gain that skill level only through practice. So practice.
- No matter what you’re writing, no matter how badly you think you’ve written it, there is ALWAYS some audience that will love it and cherish it.
- You can use what you write the first time around as a first draft and just rewrite it again later when you feel like tackling the story again!
- Rewriting the same story over and over is a valid writing process. It’s literally just creating new drafts. Each iteration will be better than the last, because each is building on your growing skill and experience.
- If you love the story, it will always be worth telling simply for your own enjoyment. If no one else ever sees it, that’s okay! Your art should be for you first, anyway.
Write it anyway.
