I FINALLY got past my writer's block in Think of the Children! YAY!!!! :D:D:D

I got stuck on the first chapter over the summer, but just when I thought I'd have to write the chapter a second time, I came up with an idea! I finished the chapter (which is Layla's chapter, Kendra's chapter is really the prologue) and so far have gotten 3 pages for Damon's chapter (aka Chapter Two.) :D

I'm so happy right now!

And I have a new idea. Before the story starts NationStates becomes globally known as a internet think tank, and so guess who gets famous? (Smunkee and LG, of course :p). Well, I was just thinking... how about the English teacher be... :eek: RELATED TO SMUNKEE! (Or, LG, Not bad, Nazz, Eut, either DM, DK, Gravlen, DCD, Farnhamia, Fiddles, Kat, TG *runs out of breath, continues* TSI, Ruffy, Free shepmagans, Dinaverg, Ginnoria... etc etc etc!) Well?

Okay, the story is abotu the US in 2022, and there's this law that restricts kids from doing just about everything- including junk food, TV, iPods, etc. Four kids are goign thorugh this, and NS will be mentioned, of course ;)

So...the children are forced to live the way their grandparents did? except within the confines of a dangerous urban environment instead of peaceful surburbia? Is it a commentary on modern escapism through media?

More like modern escapism with politics and American society, and how it'll end up in 2022. :)

Isn't your story the one where children are so protected it's like a kid's version of 1984?
Kiue
17-10-2006, 04:44
If you're looking for the kids' version of 1984, it's called 'The Giver' (hahaha, anyone on here suddenly remember that from ages ago and start freaking out?)

Anyway congrats on getting through your block. Mine has been stuck for nearly a year now and I just can't get the damn thing done.

You especially don't put soy sauce mixed with syrup on either tempura or pankakes, I hope.

That made me vomit just typing it. Being from Minnesota, I hate the movie Fargo, naturally. I have not met one person up here(other than my great-grandparents) who has such a god-awfully thick accent.

Congrats on passing the writers blcok, though.

Doesnt anyone besides me think its kinda funny to get writers block on Chapter 1?! Presumably, the beginning of the story is, well, what made you sit down and start to write the book in the first place. How can you already be out of ideas? LOL Well glad to hear your creative juices have resumed.

That can happen I have stranded after 5 pages, it's not the ideas, it's the phrasing that can be difficult among other things.

Yeah, it is kind of sad, but I'd written the prologue already and then had to re-write the first two chapters becasue they werte written in an entirely different sense and I didn't want that, but meh, plus I'd had a bajillion other things (band camp, homework, school, and of course the other 10 stories)

new law: Syrup can only be used for breakfast, dinners of breakfast, dessert, a weapon, or, in my case, a substance with which to create legions of doom.
