Attempting this Writing Thing Part 2

I love reading romances, but turns out it's really hard to write about two people falling in love. Especially when I myself have never been in a relationship so I'm basing this whole thing on media. As a result I'm worried it's going to turn out really cliché. But oh well, that's what a first draft is for right?  On the topic of first drafts, there are days when I really want this series to just be written, so I have something to work with. Honestly, I have no idea where I'm going some of the time. As you may have guessed, proper planning isn't really something I'm good at. Luckily my main character is prone to getting lost in her thoughts, which is my excuse for going off on tangents and then stopping them abruptly. It's just my 'style', right?

I started this story two years ago on Quotev, and so I have decided to keep it there. If you are interested, then head over! So, writing goals. I intend to have a new chapter up by next Wednesday, and if you are interested, I will be posting my views on such an attempt here...
