No matter if you write your story for your friends or for a Publishing House, the way is the same : yours.
Be sure you write the story you want to read, and it will be a breathe in your life.
Obviously, it won’t be easy, it won’t be written in two days. Once the first draft is finished, and rested for a few weeks, then you have to edit and rewrite: be sure, this is the begenning of the adventure.
Writing is a long walk, but this trip is also a fantastic experiment.
Hard are the lanes, but you must persue to finish it, you deserve it.
Then it will be your story. If you do your best, you will write a unique tell, at least unique for you.
Do not try to compare yourself with others : the only way is to compare your work with yours.
Can you do it better ? Always.
A story is alive. So you can never end it.
But you are able to awake it somehow.
Feel your story enough to live it from inside, side by side with your characters.
When you will have done this, you can rewrite or edit your text to make it more vivid.
