I’ve been working on a story somewhat similar to the ones I did in high school and this time with a female protagonist and honestly, I’m doing my best to just focus on making what I hope will turn out to be a good story. I’ve heard it’s best to write a character similar to yourself as the protagonist (for example, Shu Takumi, the creator of Ace Attorney wrote what he thought he would say in the situations he put Phoenix Wright in) so I figured I’d have a similar approach here. As I write, I just have the main character say and do what I think I would if I were actually a girl. By doing this, I have been able to write a decent amount.
And today I have reached 100 pages in Microsoft Word! I wouldn’t say I’m too close to the ending but I’ve at the very least gotten about half of it done! I started writing down ideas for this story a couple years ago during my last year of high school. The very first thing I did was write down my ideas for characters. At the time, I had a certain direction I wanted to go, but that idea was scrapped. Every time I tried writing I wouldn’t get very far. However, I did like a handful of the characters I came up with. After a while, I decided to just do a different take on the stories I did in high school in combination with some shows and games I like. Now I’m satisfied with what I have set up. It took me over a year to get started and last summer was when I really started to plan everything out. I still don’t have exactly everything figured out yet but I’ll get there eventually. I don’t know when I’m finishing this but I hope I will considering I have at least 100 pages now. I’m looking forward to getting closer to the end so I can write the big reveals/plot twists and possibly foreshadow future entries since there’s more I want to tell.
