I have decided that I will take the ACT in June, rather than in a month. Because I am already having anxiety attacks (idk what they are they're like mini anxiety attacks) about practically everything and I don't need that additive stress.
That way, it will allow me more time to study (See, Dad? I'm not completely useless) & then I can focus properly on Speech/School.
On the writing side of things, I've decided that I'm going to focus on planning things above anything else. [can see progress here] My focus is sort of between the Circuited rewrite, TNS rewrite, and DHTP. Lately I've really wanted to do stuff with Circuited and then yesterday I had a lot of moments where I really wanted to write DHTP.
I think I'm gonna go with the flow, but lately, I've felt as though DHTP would be something i could really write. I want to plan it out more because I'm not entirely sure what the plot is. It's sort of just a character driven story. It's literally entirely about Del growing up and how she gets through her senior in the aftermath of her mistakes from Junior year. So I think I'm either going to make a minimal outline or do something else.
I'm starting to think that since this one will be more character driven and won't have elaborate things like fantasies and sci-fi books do, I'm leaning towards a minimal outline. I want to get some of the character profiles done and then do a questionnaire for Owen, Annie, and maybe Marnie but we'll see.
(I know you don't know these characters but I love them so much because they've been in my head for so long).
Also, I would love it if someone would make a cover for me. It doesn't have to be anything amazing or prisim-like. I'd actually prefer something minimalistic.
& since the story is entirely about Del I'd kind of like the cover to feature only her? But I don't want it to be with someone's face on it? So like a girl turned around or maybe just featuring her body and no face at all. & I want it to say Don't Hate the Player in really minimalist font. But run with whatever if anyone actually reads this or anyone who does thinks 'hey I want to make a cover'
Of course I would give full credit. This would include saying so in the description, dedicating to you and saying that you made the cover in the first or second chapter.
Anyways. I think I'm just gonna start planning whenever I can [since it takes less energy than actually writing] and I'm probably gonna start writing DHTP pretty soon tbh. Hopefully, at least. I think I really am starting to feel Del a lot & so writing her struggle will be that much easier and that much more emotional, hopefully.
I'm really playing with a lot of different styles & different ways of writing.
Like ASD is a bit more hipster than I usually do & much more cute.
& #6019 if/when I get to it is more sci-fi and different
& When It Rains is more mature
Like Del is unlike any of my other main characters that I've ever written. So she's completely different than I am, so that will be a lot of fun to play around with.
I don't think I'll post DHTP until it's done completely and I've read over and think that the plot and everything flows.
Anyways that's what I'm feeling right now, and I'm not entirely sure if everything will work out that way but deciding to take the ACT in June feels like a good decision.
I actually feel much better after having written this.
If anyone actually reads this, thanks so much. You're fab.
