Me: I am going to stick to just one story idea. No more changing. No more abandoning half baked ideas. No more distractions. I will be focused. I will finish a project.
New idea:
Your best writing happens when you stop worrying about what’s “good” and just write. Messy, chaotic, too-long sentences. Weird, overdramatic dialogue. Scenes that make you feel something. You can always clean it up later, but the rawest, realest writing comes from writing like no one will ever read it.
most important part of the writing process actually is when you loop a single song on max volume and stare at the word document and imagine the characters doing things for 14 hours. this is known as getting in the zone
i hate writing action scenes. WHY ARE THEY SO HARD. do i describe every punch? every duck? every dramatic glare?? suddenly i have no idea how bodies move and it reads like a play-by-play of an awkward middle school fight. 'he punched. they dodged. they punched. he dodged.' HELP.
Sometimes writing is setting your fingers on fire trying to keep up with what your brain is creating.
...Then sometimes it's banging your head against the keyboard and hoping the result is better than what's on the page.
"are you okay?" no I got way too attached to a fictional character and now they're dead
Oikeesti parhaat kirjotusneuvot mitä oon nähny
1. Kirjota ihan vitusti
2. Jos sä pidät siitä niin se ei koskaan oo turhaa tai ajan tuhlaamista vaikka sitä ei koskaan julkaistas
3. Joka kerta kun sä kirjotat jotain uudestaan tai kirjotat jotain mikä ei koskaan tuu julkastuks sä opit siitä, ja opit kaikesta huonosta mitä kirjotat
romance is lame and overrated i love mentor/mentee relationships in fiction and especially when theyre sort of fucked up
screaming, crying, throwing up, as I force myself to write a story i'm very passionate about and love writing and have no obligation to write except that i want to
