Could you write a novel? - Trouble - 06-21-2011

Just wondering if you have the imagination to create and write a novel. I don't think I could.

How much are you willing to pay? I might be willing to try.

My admiration? Smile

I am sure I could create one but I bet I'd never finish it.

Yup. I've written two fairly short pieces of garbage, and have tons more in the pipeline that will get finished...someday. (That being, maybe in a few hundred years!)

I could, but it would be slow going. The imagination thing might also be a problem for me. Nothing some hallucinogenics couldn't fix, perhaps.

I've written probably four dozen short stories, a couple novella length, in and since college. I've tried on occasion to sit and really map out a novel, but my attention span won't let me.

I'm too critical of my own work to ever be finished...

I outlined a novel a long time ago.. Never really had the discipline to get a real start on it. I've stuck to shorter writing projects like magazine articles.

I've got Zoidberg's problem. Was published once, but that was in college. ADD and authorship... BAD combination. Ooh ! Website !

Perhaps I'm underestimating the task, or overestimating my capabilities, but I definitely think I could. I love to write, and have a great imagination, and can map out ideas from start to finish--even with lots of intricacies.
