The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

[Dog Moon]

I have a similiar problem. I rarely finish what I have started. Once I know how it ends I become bored with it.

Actually, of I only have really 4 stories, two of which are done, one enough where I need to work on sending it to an editor, but haven't, and another which I have finished but have not yet gone through it a second time to go through mistakes and fill in spaces I've left kinda open.

One of them I had a good idea in the beginning and wrote quickly for a while, but then I got to a point where I had absolutely no freaking clue what I wanted to do with it. I basically hit a wall of which I have never been able to overcome.

My fourth, I have an idea that I like, but it's the way I'm writing it more than the topic which I cannot get down satisfactorily. I have literally rewritten it half a dozen times in different ways. On was the basic 3rd person in most stories. Then I tried 1st person. Then I tried 1st person as if the main character was in the future and writing about events in the past. Then, for a while I was into the Dead Zone, another TV show dealing with dreams and the book I was reading dealt with dreams, so I kinda did a Dead Zone sort of thing with the story. Now, I'm stuck and unsatisfied with all methods I've tried so far.

My 5th, well, it's like 5 pages long. Ideas, but little else.

PBeM is less time-constraining and schedule constraining for me. I have tried PbP before and it just did not work. I had to pull out after a while.

Oh ... good afternoon hivers!

If you declare it to be slow (1-2 posts a week), you can do that. I'm in one running about that speed that's been going since december '05.

Finaly saw Spidey 3

Wasn't too bad. I think people are giving it a bad rap. Certaintly the worst of the 3, but that's not saying it's bad by any stretch. I enjoyed it.

I saw it on Friday night. I thought it a little above average, so worth seeing, but agreed that it is certainly the worst of the 3.

2 is probably in my top 10 and 1 is pretty high up there, so yeah, being the worst of the 3 isn't unreasonable.

That said, I'd say it was very good. Probably a bit more enjoyable than Pirates 3, and certaintly much more enjoyable (and funny unfortunately) than Shrek 3.

Hrm, had forgotten that my second story ended in a both happy and sad way. Good guys won in the end, but not without suffering great losses in the end.
