I'm Writing a Story

I'm writing a story. This would be my first attempt in writing a story so I know it would be rough. I posted it on my Wordpress blog, but here's how it goes.

    Anya frustratedly stared at her monitor for almost an hour now as she waited for the uninspired moment to pass. “Damn writer’s block,” she exclaimed. But no matter what she do, she just can’t find it in her to write the first word to the story she was supposed to be working on.

    She planned on working on a love story. But there’s just one problem. She can’t start writing. Anya can’t seem to find the right words and the right characters to start with. She was so sure it would be so easy to write a love story after emerging from a romance movie marathon, which consisted of 36 hours of romance flicks in preparation for this writing task. And she was also banking on her other sources of knowledge on this topic. She had read hundreds, no, thousands of romance novels since she started reading her first “pocketbook” way back in her first year in high school. And it’s not as if reading romance novels were her only background at love. Anya was in her third year in high school when she got a boyfriend, and now she considers herself an expert in love after being having going through more than 10 of such kind of relationship which she had disappointingly ended one after another.

    “Writing a romance story should be easy for me”, Anya smugly thought when she had first decided on what genre to write on, and she had that thought two days ago. But she still can’t think of something that she can use to start with her story.

    “What should I do? Urgh. This is so frustrating!” For about 5 seconds Anya thought of giving up on writing the story. “Why is it so hard to write a love story! Should I focus on Emery first, or Alex?”

    “Hey, stupid shrimp! Are you madly talking to yourself now?”

    Anya’s heart jumped. Ed’s roughly shaven face interrupted her concentration as he just entered inside her “personal space” without warning...
