    Complete NOOB!

    Hey All, So i have always been an avid reader of pretty much every genre going and have started and stopped writing a few different stories over the years .This is usually as i have either lost direction or have been unsure of whether they were worth continuing. I decided that joining a forum would help me either progress or completly scrap some work. Please be honest!

    Hi and let me be the first to welcome you to the forums.

    BTW whenever I'm faced with this problem I just force an ending to the story (I've repeated this advice before). Just finishing something is powerful and trains the brain to see things through - vital to a writer. SO when you run into uncertainty regarding a story just give it an ending. Let you subconscious mull it over and you may find yourself returning to it in a few weeks with a fresh perspective that resolves all the inconsistencies brought about by the abrupt ending.

    It's not NOOB it's N00B. Even internet slang has it's rules.

    Welcome to the boards. Glad to have you.
    Remember why you like to read, and inundate your writing with your love of story. No great writer ever found reading a chore.
