An idea hit me for a science fiction novel. So I bought some writing software and began. Thus far, I am about 3000 words in. Though I am finding myself too caught up in world building and explaining the rules and concepts of my universe that there appears to be little moment to moment story telling going on.
In fact I am finding it very hard to write about whats currently going on. I have the story path, ideas, and the journey laid out, but not sure of the small scale path.
Any tips?
This is my first attempt at writing anything.
Also constantly fighting with tenses.
