For anyone who feels this, let your first sentence be crappy.

Building up momentum while writing is the easiest way to get the story flowing but you need to start somewhere. And the start might just have to be crappy.

Like, let your first sentence be “It was raining.” “He was unhappy.” “When he woke up, his head was hurting.” It’s easy to be hyper-critical of the first sentence you write and that can lead to typing and erasing for hours and giving up. Let it be bland and generic and dull just so you can get the ball rolling. 

Edit it later.

so, second piece of writing advice:

start with a statement of fact

any fact, just pick one thing about the beginning of the story you wanna tell. if it gives the pov character a dilemma or trouble, all the better. it’s not the only way to start, but it’s simple and fairly concrete as a starting line.

THERE IS NO “YOU”, ONLY THE VAST CONCEPT OF NOTHING.
