What to write?

[DarkAries]

Hello Satanic Brothers and Sisters!

After I spend more than half year to write an insanely boring and dry dissertation, I nearly turned my back to writing. A few days of reading lovecraftian stories was enough for me to realise why I started writing in the first hand.

But what to write? Or more likely, what worth to be written? I can imagine writing a romantic-lyrics story where you portray the Gods as they really are, like The club Dumas. Problem is, I tried that last year, but I stopped around 20 percent. I felt as the story get weaker with each page, I havent really planned everything, and I constantly had to change my original plans for the new ideas I got on the way. Im proud of the first chapter, not so much for the second, everything after that is a mess.

What I really like to write is small, Lovecraftian horror stories, with a big punchline at the last sentence. I did some similar, those where I havent felt like a labor work. A lot of times even try to paint the monster or the antagonist a very jewish-like creature, but never directly saying that out. I dont want to write these just for myself, and these stories mostly have a dark grimm tone. I could only show the positive aspects like in a Fromsoft game. A little light in a dying world.

My question is, would something like this worth publishing? I dont want to write just for myself, but Im out of ideas. I can do a lot more, I just dont know if its worth the time.

Thanks for your answers.

Maybe do a Mercury square to Increase you ability to write and have more inspiration.

Give more personality to your characters and world. I would plan everything ahead, but use your creative mind, not the logical.

Controlling Over-Analyzing Mind; Strengthening Creative Mind

We are taught wrongly in school. We are taught unnatural methods to think and learn, utilizing only the left brain (logic mind), suppressing the right (creative mind). We are taught in school that the right brain is pretty much useless for education. How wrong they are, to tell us this. We see...

Ultimately, a risen kundalini will give the most inspiration.

I've already been interested by music and composition since child and understood something about what you talk about.
You must define a main line first, then follow it.

Spontaneously, if someone have artistic abilities, he can create an excellent piece and after... no more idea, how to continue.
It's because art is astral by nature, it's not tangible and can lead to non sens and delirium until it dissipates.

Like a house start with plans, then foundations, then the walls... and at end, all is here for the guy who wants paint artistic stuff everywhere, an interresting structure waits for him.

Basics first, arrangement around basics seconds, then virtuosity with all has been set last.
it requires time and experience, you can also write shortest stories, fairy tales... before writing huge books.

And... suddenly I find my old post two years later, after I finished university and searching for jobs, or thinking what to do with my life. Time have a humor, I have to say

Writing just for yourself is literally the best thing you can do when it comes to writing.

I get wanting to tie in Theology into your writing but remember that doing so is very difficult and can come across as very hamfisted, I think you should just write what you feel like writing and let whatever allegories and metaphors come present themselves naturally.

Starting with short stories and publishing them online for peer-review is likewise one of the best things you can do, so yes I would also suggest doing that.

Self-publish a few things for now, get a feel for your weaknesses, accept the valid criticisms people who review and read your work provide (if the criticisms are valid) and then work on something to send to a publisher when you feel ready.

For me, writing became something, an attempt to write a sacred code of some sort, but due to lack of deep knowledge this didn't lead to anything, besides some cool visual ideas that ends on themselves.
Useless basically.

The word Universe imply that there is a one sacred verse that describe existence, and keep the constant movement of reality.

Writing that down with an alphabet based on cosmic sounds seems maybe the highest ambition of writing.

I once spended 2 hours every morning, for two weeks, to write a horror story. Just whatever I had in mind. I dare to say its the best I wrote so far, moreover I enjoyed the process. But still, I need to get money from something, dont I?
I could be a writer. Would even enjoy it, making stories that deeply disturbbthe reader and make them question everything. That would be nice
