Being the Author

Sometimes you write a story and you know damn well that the characters have been lied to, that certain things have happened for reasons they don’t know because someone explained situations to them in a way that means they have an incorrect idea of why they are in said situation, but because you’re writing about that character it’s not possible to show that they have believed lies. They don’t know that the reasons they were given were lies. Occasionally these lies can make a story seem more illogical than they are and because the characters are unlikely to ever know about the lies they were told it seems a little difficult to make the story seem less illogical. I could write about other characters who had to deal with the same thing and weren’t as lucky. I could write about one of the characters who told the lies in the first place. I’m just not sure if they’re stories I want to take on, but at the same time I want to make the original story less illogical.

Then there are character types that seem to be taking over some of my stories – the creepy stalker type. I can’t explain exactly why, but I have always written about them and I don’t think I’m going to stop, although I know that I want to teach them all the error of their ways. Some will change, realise they made mistakes, and make their lives different to the way they may have been if they didn’t have someone there to point out all their flaws. Others will get their comeuppance, but it will take time.

In Other News

This week has been a long week. My partner and I spent much of the time moving from my Nan’s into a room that we’re renting. Writing hasn’t happened all that much, because it has been tiring moving my furniture and some of my books, but next week should be much better.

I ended the auction. It seems to have been a failed experiment this time, but I think I’ll test the whole thing out a couple more times before I give up on auctions entirely. One person bidded on one item, so I just have to wait and see whether it works out. Anyone have any ideas on how I can make the auction more interesting to more people?

As I said before I will be writing all the stories I had on offer and posting them on the donor filter. That will be started once I’ve caught up with stories I have outstanding from the beginning of the year and done some more of the 100 stories.

I have a new facebook page: www.facebook.com/kajoneswriting
