This is a daunting task. I have enjoyed it so far, but as my life gets busier and busier it almost feels like a chore. My story has taken some interesting turns and I think I might get two shorter stories out of it in the end, which is good, but continuing to write it getting harder. I have other responsibilities, including writing responsibilities that I keep putting off in order to "catch up" with the daily writing goal.
I think I'm also a little afraid to go too deep with any of my characters. Chris wrote about finding things out about himself through his writing, and I have had the same experience. However, there are some things I'm not ready to talk to myself about, and I think this fear holds me back from exploring my characters fully sometimes. I am about to write an epic battle scene for a dream sequence that has turned into my main story. I keep finding ways around getting that princess rescued and writing the battle that leads up to it. I'm not exactly sure what I'm afraid of, but I know that I'm holding back.
