Writing young adult at this age? NahðŸ˜
Hi! Another day, another rant.
So, I am 30, and a man. Which might be surprising. (I'm just clarifying so nobody calls me bbg in the comments while replying assuming I'm a girl ðŸ˜)
I recently resumed writing on Wattpad. And i also have a short story uploaded...but ofcourse I wanted to write a book.
I was indeed interested in writing a YA academia centric book, but then I thought and thought.....and it just looks weird cause...wdym a grown ass man writing about teenage love story....? ðŸ˜And..I don't know..I'm so confused about the whole thing.
Should I write a mystery thriller? That'd be fun to write, but a really lengthy process. (Even thinking about it makes me nauseous and dizzyðŸ˜)
Sometimes I wonder if I should write a romcom, but ...all the tropes are so clichè...I am in a writer's block even before i have started writing..
General fiction practically doesn't work in Wattpad. So it's closed
I don't wanna write AI generated arranged marriage stories with a toxic bunch of characters.
WHAT SHOULD I WRITE?
