I have written pages and pages of character bios and outlines. I know the world, the society, what will happen and why. I even have a whole entire folder on Lappy for the chapters.
Problem is, I havent written the first word of chapter 1. I am absolutely paralyzed with fear.
- I am afraid that I have no idea what I'm doing - and I dont. I have read a lot of books, but written VERY little.
- I am worried that the story will become unweildy and get away from me
- I am afraid that what I want to write will just not work
- I am afraid that I will change my mind on exactly what I want to write and how I want to present it and have to gut the whole thing - rewrite a bunch of shit
- I am afraid that it will be embarrassingly lame and suckie
What the hell do I do now? Shit.
