So as the story that started it all for me on Wattpad...
Wait- that's not right.
Something Wrong, Someone Right was the story I started with. Originally written on a whim, I have gotten just about nowhere with the story, and have started plenty more to keep me busy. However, I am trying to get back to writing this one, as I have been neglecting it terribly.
One of my techniques for trying to continue a story that I have long since forgotten where it was headed is rereading it over and over again. Eventually I'll get a vague idea as to where it was headed, so I might write down a few notes on a piece of paper or type them up on my laptop or on my phone.
This does create an issue, however, I do realize that. The notes can get lost, or you may delete them by accident. Trust me, I know what that's like. The main reason I forgot where the story was going was because I lost my original notes on the story back when I only had the prologue up. My phone decided to delete a whole bunch of my notes to conserve space. Genius device, right? Well, I have my phone notes connected to my email, so I quickly went there and looked for them. They were completely gone. I couldn't even begin to remember where I was going without those notes! All my other notes were there, but those ones weren't. I cannot believe my phone did that to me.
With that in mind, something else I've tried and do recommend is simply writing the scene or part that you know, and work around that, whether by backtracking or moving forward. Writing what you do know ensures you won't forget it as easily, and helps you use the creative juices you have instead of using air. I do this quite often, as my story The Lost Sister (also on Wattpad, and my second story on the site) was written in pieces before I started uploading them and writing the story from there. My phone was nice and kept a few of them, but the rest I only have because the notes are connected to my email. If I lost those I'd be dead, as I don't really remember what I was writing. I'll have to reread them soon.
Now, back to Something Wrong, Someone Right.
I think my blurb will suffice, as well as pictures of the characters. *smiles innocently* I have to make sure you will read it, no?
Agatha's life hits rough seas, so-to-speak, when a man she meets in a coffee shop offers to help her commit suicide or fix her life. Having no right judgement after years of not caring, she accepts his help, but after three months, he finally poses the question again: "Do you still wish do die, or shall I walk away?" Already shocked, Agatha refuses to answer, leading her on a one-way journey to the realm in which she should have been born: the realm of magic and mystery.
"It's strange. It's almost like going to bed one night and waking up in a fairy tale the next."
Once she learns more about this myserious realm, she decides the abundance of vampires, elves, faeries, and other mythical creatures is acceptable...until she learns about the dreaded curse.
That's the blurb. Everything moves much faster than I would like, but I have lost most of the idea of where the story was going, so I have to say that for moving quickly, it's decent. Then again, I hate my writing, so some readers may think differently.
Moving on to characters:
Agatha Nunes, age 21. This the main character in close representaitons of several outfits she will appear in or already has appeared in.
Princess Aryan, Queen Lanafae III, and King Riharan II of Opaq, the capital of the Elven Kingdom. Yes, they are elves. They are very important characters.
Theo Gratius in close representaitons of several outfits he will appear in or already has appeared in.
Master Garris Shae, TeFeh's right-hand man- er, Faerren, Marianne Foae, TeFeh's right-hand female Faerren and love interest, and Paen TeFeh, Elíjet leader. All are Faerrens, and therefore all are the enemies. They are all in close representaitons of several outfits they will appear in or already have appeared in.
I like to use Doll Divine and Azalea's Dolls to create images of my characters. It helps me visualize them, plus the doll and scene makers are very, very addictive! The scene maker I used for these characters was the new Lord of the Rings/Hobbit Scene Maker that is on both websites (though the link takes you to Doll Divine's game). The two sites have the same exact game; nothing is added or removed, although Doll Divine does add a different save option to save your image to Doll Divine's galleries or your own if you choose to make an account. Azalea's Dolls does not have a gallery or accounts, so you have to save the images to your computer.
Other games I recommend are Erté Elegance, Neptune's Daughter, The Tudors Scene Maker, Game of Thrones Scene Maker, and Pixie Scene Maker on Doll Divine, and Heroine Fan-Art Creator, Goddess Dress Up, Dark Fairy Dress Up, Male Warrior Dress Up , Velvet Fashion, and Portrait Maker on Azalea's Dolls. Most of the games on Azalea's Dolls require taking a screenshot of the completed doll or scene, as there may not be a save or download button. Some of those on Doll Divine also require screenshotting, but most can be downloaded directly to your computer or saved to the galleries, where you can right click and save or drag the image from the website to your desktop.
Hope you enjoy my story, and hope the advice enclosed in this story feature helps you in your writing.
Stay strong, breathe, and keep on writing!
