Rewriting...

Have you ever wrote something and found yourself unsatisfied with it. I have and when I look over something like it, I want to get the metaphorical ax and begin hacking it into something I could be proud of. This is what I felt for my NaNoWriMo project. This is what I felt for a private mulichaptered story. And this is what I felt when looking over my latest private one shot. What I half-heartedly added didn't please me and my inspiration for it was low. So I decided to go back to the beginning and change a few things.

I ended up rewriting most of the sentences for over half of what I wrote. And it felt good.  It felt good to improve on the parts that unsatisfied me and then eliminating them altogether. I felt like I was making my story stronger and more enjoyable.

It felt good to rewrite.

Now if I could just swallow the critiques of my Professor and apply that rewriting passion for the inevitable redo of that essay. Even if I know he does it so I could grow as a writer, the critques still sting nevertheless. I guess that's the byproduct of me being apart of the self esteem boost generation.

I also have to finish an essay from an assignment of a class book by tomorrow. I believe I got much of it done, and the instructions were to do my best attempt at it, so hopefully I could take the critiques that would inevitably follow.

In other news, I just finished the first season of Yu-Gi-Oh GX. I could see why it was a weak season, as the writing team only had basic premise to run with instead of an entire manga. However, I believed they eventually adapted, as fans could see with the rest of the show.Also, the shonen vibe of some of the episodes inspired my mind to build on some of my original series which had similar themes and it felt good. I'll continue watching it!

Well, that's all! It's nearly 2 a.m. and I better get to bed.

Good night!
