i can't do it either. i don't know why, but i ALWAYS have to go in order, or my fingers just won't move. there's only been, like, a few exceptions of that- a few times when i've had this one random scene stuck really firmly in my head, so i had to write it down. but i've never been able to REALLY write ahead.

I'm one of those weirdos too! I HAVE to write in order or I can't. :D

Amy (kelairyy) | 137 comments Yay! :) haha, usually my posts are really pointless.

lol the only bad thing about writing from the climax is you have to know pretty much the whole background of the book. Like for me, I started writing a subplot yesterday (but pretty important in the story), and I hadn't planned everything out exactly yet. It was like a fantasy, so there were a bunch of names of spells, magical creatures, the antagonists, so I just made up lame names for them that I'm probably going to have to change later... unfortunately that's a lot of editing for me, but at least it helps me write.

lol...i can't do that...but if it works for you, then it's all good =D


message 57: by Amy (new)

Amy (kelairyy) | 137 comments haha I hate just sitting there trying to think of names and stuff... because it just takes FOREVER... but this is actually the first time I've done this... and I actually can write more... because it's more interesting than starting in the beginning.

Liz order write of I cannot out.

k, that was spazzy. But yeah, I hate writing out of order. it wrecks things for me.

lol. :) I like you demonstration of writing out of order. That sentence directly translated would probably make sense in some language or other...


message 60: by Liz (new)

Liz It makes sense in Swahili...

Not really, but I just love that word.

My teacher sort-of speaks swahili... and my other teacher speaks italian. And my other teacher (the only one that is a language teacher) speaks french. :)


message 62: by Liz (new)

Liz I'm learning Italian. Teaching myself, so I go very slowly cause I don't have the discipline.


message 63: by Hannah (new)

Hannah (lettingtheinkdry) I'm learning spanish it is rather difficult.


message 64: by Liz (new)

Liz Heh heh. I'm learning Italian firstly because it's a passion for me, and secondly so I can take the back door into all the Romance languages. I figure that since it's so close to French, tackling French will be easier once I know Italian.


message 65: by Hannah (new)

Hannah (lettingtheinkdry) Oh I know. I want to learn Italian and Latin. I love the romance languages.


message 66: by Liz (new)

Liz I'd like to learn Latin, but I have a feeling it would be a waste of my non-existent time. priorities, priorities...


...I think we're getting waaayyy off-topic.

Well, where I live, it's actually more practical to take french. Plus everybody takes spanish. So I really didn't want to. I didn't feel like fitting in.

I mean, I live closer to quebec than I do to any of the southern states where most of the spanish speakers are.

And there are actually a lot of countries that speak french. There's a provencce of canada, france, belgium, luxembourg, and all of west africa.
