Well it's been almost a year since I started this blog and I haven't really done anything with it. I started this blog to share about my writing and practice my writing in a differnet form, and I haven't really done either of those things.
Earlier this year I finished my first book and began writing the rest of the series. At the moment, I am still only at that stage. I have one completely finished book and about 4 unfinished.
I love writing and reading. Reading always provided an escape to me from things in life. I could literally lose myself in a books pages and become the main character in the story. I learnt to analyse the way a book was written as I read. Even now, before I even finish the book or get to the climax of the story, I already have an idea of whats going to happen, already guessed what's going to happen next. I love how authors hide things from their readers and leave them questioning things that are then revealed later in the same pages. Small hints, clues are left in every single page and the story continues, slowly revealing the bigger picture.
It's the same in movies.
A small conflict leads into something much, much bigger.
One book can easily turn into seven. That's what I love about writing. You can keep writing and writing and writing about the same world you've created over and over again. And everything that happens is all up to you. You decide what problems your characters face and how they choose to fix them. The best part is, even after starting a new series or a new boook, you can always return back to that same place you fell in love with and pick up where you left off to continue the stories of the characters you first created.
