I really want to write something right now

why do ships hit so much harder when they aren't explicitly canon. why do i choose homoerotic subtext over genuine representation every single time

Me at all the wacked out lib fems on this hellsite.

Idk who needs to hear this but you dont need a fully formed idea to write. Just write what you have and pull shit out of your ass until it's done and maybe imagine your ocs in an amv. It may suck but thts what first drafts are for.

all writers know how to do is procrastinate, sleep, drink coffee, have 75 unrelated research tabs open at once, ignore their WIPs, constantly abandon their OCs to create new ones, and lie
