Writing Embarrassment

Posted on October 27, 2010 by Ileandra Young

Now, I know I shouldn’t be – I was 15! – but looking at the exert of TBATV-1 has put me in a very odd place. Its not that I don’t like it; its the basis of Silk Over Razor Blades after all. And its grown so very much over the years.

Still, I am a little embarrassed by it. I can’t help looking at it and freaking out ever so slightly at how… young it sounds. And its in the first person. I haven’t written in the first person since then; it just doesn’t feel right any more. And its so restrictive. Considering the problems I currently have with POV, it would be harder to keep that consistent in first person. Meh.

Anyways, its there. Read it. Have fun with it. Comment on it. 😛 You know you wanna. If only to giggle at how I used to write!

About Ileandra Young

I'm a thirty-*mumbles* year old (purple loving, cheese worshipping) author of fantasy, juggling a pair of beautiful twin boys with my burning desire to make up stories and write them all down. When I get the chance, I play games, listen to music, and in days long past I even ran a radio show. Though I occasionally write non-fiction, my heart lives in fantasy and my debut novel, Silk Over Razor Blades is now available through Amazon along with part two of the trilogy, Walking The Razor's Edge.
