| I have had friendships in the past - some were great and beneficial while others - the majority - were a pain in the backside. It was down to this reason I avoided making friends with anyone. I grew tired of the backstabbing, the judging and the nonsensical stuff that came with it. Over the past cou... |

| Perhaps your main character was somehow assigned to the wrong element? That could create conflict both inner and in the outer world. Getting from the wrong place to the right one? In a previous draft her element was Water and by the end of it her element changed to Fire. This was to mirror her grow... |

| The world itself has five different parts. The residents are assigned to each one by their element of water, earth, fire and spirit. So, what is the fifth part? Are the politicians' element something like Mud? Just being sarcastic, but still missing an element...I'd guess wind or air, as a serious ... |

| My main character has nothing she wants therefore there is no conflict. This is very perceptive of you. A book on screenwriting says, Your main character wants something badly and has major trouble getting it, and that’s the beginning of everything.

| It's very common to move on to other different projects if you get stuck on one. This has happened to me many times. I used to have many projects on the go at once. I have no motivation to start something new (which is a problem in itself) and so my attention is focused on solving this project only... |

| This is what I have done with my opening chapters. My main character is given a necklace by her tutor (who is related to her but this is related later). Jewellery is forbidden in the water element due to fear of reading the accessory. Later she is called in by the Moirai who act as the Fates and res... |

| Hello, I have been working on a high fantasy novel on and off for ten years. I have completed several drafts but I'm not satisfied with any of them. My story world and its premise are complex to say the world. The world itself has five different parts. The residents are assigned to each one by their... |

I feel the same way. My life doesn't look promising.
Only really here for other people. Not myself.

| Ah, the questions I hate. Well, I tried to get into work since leaving school but that didn't work out. I just don't fit in with the employment scene - too little qualifications, not got the brain to achieve them, etc. I'm not great at selling myself, either. It's just not something I believe in.
