Hi, HidingBookLord,

VERY stylish pen name!

Thanks for posting. It sounds like you aren’t planning in enough detail. When you know EXACTLY what you’re trying to say, the pacing won’t be rushed. I think you’re probably doing what most beginning writers do — coming up with the germ of an idea, and starting to write it down too soon for it to develop into a real story with a beginning, a middle, a build-up,  a climax, and a finish. Planning is everything.

Good luck. The great thing about writing is that you can become something else, and also do some writing in your spare time. So you don’t really have to choose right from the start.
