Re: I wrote myself into a corner! 10 Years, 10 Months ago Karma: 37
I would love some suggestions on how to fix this dilemma; I was all excited when I just started writing my first fan-fiction, and so I went all out with too much twists and over plotting, and now I am not so sure which direction I should go.

One of the major issues is that I think if I should try and fix it now, it would be inconsistent and choppy because I just want to continue and finish the story, and the persons reading keep asking for updates. How do I deal with this. Thanks in advance.

Hi!

I can't say I've read your story, but would like to help.

Could you tell me what has happened in your story? That would be a nice place to start.

Re: I wrote myself into a corner! 10 Years, 10 Months ago Karma: 37
Whew! The story is up to 51 chapters, I really don't know where to begin, but I will try to summarize it quickly.

Kagome came back to the feudal era after three years to be with Inuyasha, and they were to be married. Sesshomaru was harboring feelings of lust and other emotions that he did not want to consider on, namely love. He manipulates Kagome to sleep with him and she does because she didn't have many options. Feelings develops on both sides afterward, but misunderstandings drove them apart. Inuyasha and Miroku were away for two weeks on demon extermination when Kags slept with Sessh.

She went back to Inuyasha and pretends that whatever happened between her and Sessh did not happen and marries Inuyasha. They try immediately to have children, only trying when he was human, because Inyasha wanted his children to live normal lives, he wanted human children. Anyhow the babies were born as puppies and all hell broke lose. Inuyasha abandons her, the pups get sick and she went in search of Sessh for he was their father and no one she knew could help her heal them.

Overall Kags and Sessh ended up bonding after many trials. Inuyasha returns five months later and put the pieces together, bitter and enraged he loses some of his sanity. He used a maturing Rin, raping and impregnating her. Abuses her emotionally and physically to spite his brother. And capturing Jaken in the process who was sent on a mission by Sesshomaru to gather information on his brother before he, Kagome and the children set out to find him, to dissolve Kags marriage so he can mate her.

A bunch of things happen, Sess almost died and he mates Kagome before she dissolved her marriage. They have more pups. Inuyasha hires mercenaries to go after his brother, fearful of him now that he had dishonored Rin, he prevents Rin from bonding with the baby, only letting her feed and cleaning her because she refused to be his woman. Jaken stayed with Rin even though he could have escaped, she was emotional and needed him.

The story is full of lemons and I swear that was not my original intent. I should be writing the last two chapters to end the story but I cannot because the killers that Inuyasha hired have a vendetta against Sesshomaru, and that is another story in itself. Sessh, Kags, and the children have met up with the first set of thugs. The story definitely cannot end in the two chapters now.

I fear that it is becoming drawn out, but if I end it in two chapters it would be shortsighted and inconsistent. The story is full of drama and unexpected twist that I will have to further write on and explain. I don't feel the passion for writing such a long ending. I hope that helps!

Maybe you should wrap up what you want to in the next two chapters, and then do a sequel to deal with the vendetta that's between Sesshoumaru and the people that were hired to kill him. That way you can pace the stuff to your liking in the next story instead of fighting to resolve it all in just one story. It's a thought. Good Luck!

Starfyre, that is a great idea; for it would give me time to prepare my thoughts better in a sequel, rather than trying to do it all right now when I am not so passionate about the story. And as you said I would be better able to pace myself. Thank you!
