I remember when I was in Year 12 and my English teacher said 'There is nothing more daunting than a blank page.' While that may be true with writing an essay, I find it is completely different when you are writing fiction.
You see when you are writing fiction you are actually placing a piece of you soul, your hopes, fears, and love on to a page for one day to read. That is the daunting part, the fact that one day this may be read by someone who thinks its nothing more than a big pile of poopoo.
It is actually exciting to fill a blank page. There is endless possibilities when you are faced with a blank page. You can create a world that you the writer can get lost in. A world that you can control when the world around you is self imploding either by acts of God or acts of Humans.
It's the only control one can ever have. The control over the blank Page
