screams in writer's block

my solution for writers block, is to start another book. my solution for having to many books, is to start another book. and lastly; my solution for my mental health problems, is to start another book. hope this helps :)

Basically. I had a short story in progress, and then stuff happened, motivation died, and then I immediately started another short story featuring a different ship, and here we are now. Just, in this case, it's not books, it's my little short stories.

I AM HERE
FINALLY

hey! glad to have you!

Ahoy there

huh, do you think we should have like a summary of what we're all working on?

Sounds good :)

i have too many books. if we follow the timeline it goes, where one meets two: which is during the transition between a 'ready player one'-esk world minus awesome vr, to a magic fantasy world where everything else takes place. the next one is called, wyvern's tale: it's a few small books on the early life and rise of the dragon king. then comes the main series about the rise and fall of the most powerful recorded witch. afterwards, the eyes of another: comes the witches downfall at the hands of the most cookie-cutter 'knight in shining armor' guy, bur told from a side characters view (it's supposed to be a bit more comedic, and have some minor 4th wall breaking) and a spin off, silent whispers: about a half-elf lady with some really cool powers and such that brings even more world building to the whole thing. and last is a collection of short stories, mrs.fable's stories: revealing more of the world building and also secrets from the other books.

Ooh! Those sound intriguing! Here's mine:

I only have one that I have forced myself to work on for the past year and am currently writing the second draft right now. It's about a girl named Blade, who lives in basically a rebel 'Clan' that's mission is to kill the king that's basically a heartless murderer. Plus romance, plot twists that blew up my friends brains, and death/destruction. It's generally chaos and my first draft is absolute garbage, but it's coming alone good now and I'm at 12,000 words in my second draft. :)

Both of your stories sound really interesting! Here's mine so far!

The title is a work in progress, so I can't share that, nor has it gotten far, but I'm gonna blame school for that one. However, the general plot is there are two kingdoms, one with magic and one without. The two are close to going to war, but the princess and prince's friendship keeps their parents from declaring war. That's the base lore. As for the actual plot, the prince breaks a family heirloom, which causes the princess to cast a spell of misfortune upon him. So, now banned from the kingdom, the prince and his guard (also his best friend) embark on a journey to break the curse before a war can break out. They run into a few friends to help them, but there is a constant threat, that being an assassin out to kill the prince as they were ordered to. Oh, and there's a slight romance to it all, but that's not really plotted since I want to gradually add it so it feels natural. ^^

Little fun fact: this started as a little fanfic, and here we are now with it turning into my first original work! ^^

ooooo i remember you telling me about this! how far have you gotten?

Um, chapter one is still in progress. School killed my motivation and it hasn't returned. However! I think the fanfic version will be my first draft, so then I can make sure I can see it through, and then I can change some names, any necessary details, and yeah! It's not much right now, but I'm hoping to resume progress soon!
