over 103,000 words written and i’m still only about 60% through book 3…… that’s what i get for being a representative of the thicc book committee
it might also have something to do with the fact that i have nine main characters, tons of important side characters and plots, and lore that runs deeper than a rabbit hole but idk
i feel like an old maiden in dating culture. girls, don’t settle <3 do what makes you happiest!
WHETHER I'M GONNA BE YOUR WIFE OR GONNA SMASH UP YOUR BIKE I HAVEN'T DECIDED YET BUT IMGONNAGETYOUBACK
just changed my already published book covers for a fourth time
ok i’m in desperate need of advice!!!
the window is currently open for character regression for one or two or my characters but idk if should do it or not???
the only reason i’m doubting is because i’m kind of scared to😭 but the opportunity is there and i do think it could be interesting for the plot moving forward.
esp for the two characters i have in mind. god it’s hard to explain without spoiling my story but how do we feel about character regression? should i just say eff it and go for it?
to paint a picture: it’d be one of those instances where a character has reverted back to their old ways because of a “straw that breaks the camels back” moment, but deep down inside, they still care, they’re just trying to cope with all the hurt they’re feeling.
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.
me whenever i think of a new storyline/plot idea that hits like absolute crack:
i hate it here - taylor swift
help i’m inching closer and closer towards cementing a plot point that’s been planned for sometime now and i’m *dreading* officially writing it so badly omg😭
but as it is written… it shall be done😪 (i’m already sobbing profusely)
idk if anyone watches the bachelor on abc but ooo i *need* to air out my frustrations with tonight’s finale somewhere!!!!
more so some of the audience’s reaction to the reaction of the woman who wasn’t chosen because oh my godddd it’s proving how deeply rooted misogyny is in some people!!!!
news flash: a woman can be kind and *still* have a backbone!!!! omg!!! shocking discovery right!!!???
god forbid a woman expresses frustrations over a man blindsiding her🙄 god i hateeee the internet sometimes😭
insane to think there was a time in my life where my characters didn’t reside in my head 24/7
just tried to outline future chapters and my brain nearly short circuited. my creative mind is not meant to be confined to the chains of bullet points and organization she simply isn’t
fyi i do not “crush” i experience violent, all-consuming devotion and yearning that leaves me physically ill

i can’t tell if ‘my boy only breaks his favorite toys’ is as underrated as i think it is or if i just relate to it *that* hard that i can’t understand how it hasn’t had it’s moment yet….
one thing about me, i love a sad bop!
“once i fix me, he’s gonna miss me.” he sure is!!!!!!!!!!!!
no i don’t think you guys are actually getting it… i look in people’s windows… in case you’re at their table… what if your eyes looked up and met. mine.. one… more…. time?
the concept of one of my characters being this super smart intuitive guy who can read a room/person with the snap of a finger, but couldn’t figure out the love of his life was keeping a scandalous secret from him is soooo😭
oh nooooo i’ve found another cute, awkwardly endearing, adorably nerdy smart funny man to obsess over!!! nurse, she’s out again!!!!!!
except this one really is my soulmate fr i’m manifesting it🕯️🤞🏼🪄🕯️🤞🏼🪄🕯️
in the mood to sell my house, set fire to all my clothes and hire a priest to come and exorcise my demons
Variants of Taylor Swift's "The Man" look (2024)
Revising grammar and description in a romantic scene be like:
i love when i write out a scene idea (with plans to incorporate it into the storyline) and then i sit at my computer desk to do just that and my characters are just like:
“nah, we’ll take it from here tyvm.”
and i’m just like: oh ok! yes chef🫡
i can’t tell you how many “deleted scenes” i have in my notes app because my characters love to take the wheel from me🙄
evermore is such an insane album when you really think about it. like. love isn't forever. friendship isn't forever. trust isn't forever. family isn't forever. even a marriage isn't forever. but then she ends on evermore (song) and it's like: you know what else isn't forever? pain. suffering. heartache. she just flips the script of the entire album on the LAST SONG and cements the complexity of its core message in 5 minutes. and i'm supposed to be normal about that
this!!
If you’re shrouded in writers block and desperately want to shoo it away to keep going with your WIP, it sometimes helps to delete the last few sentences/paragraph/scene and rewrite it. Sometimes you accidentally build dams in your creative stream and the only way around is to go back and break it down
taylor writing enchanted about her first encounter with a guy she develops a raging crush on is how i know she’s just like me fr
just had a #writerscare thinking i astronomically fucked up a crucial part of a storyline in my book series…😁
one of the hardest parts of writing interconnected stories tbh lol the stress of everything having to perfectly align as to avoid even the tiniest plot hole is a lot
thankfully, i figured it out and saved myself from the impending meltdown!
"match my freak!" match my sweetness. match my benevolence. match my empathy. match my ability to feel emotions so deeply it tears me apart from the inside out
taylor wrote ‘who’s afraid of little old me?’ for me and for me only
seeing straight men be disgusted by booktok smut recommenders has actually radicalized me to the side of booktok smut recommenders. girls your taste may be atrocious but i will never disparage you for exposing mainstream discourse to the concept of soaking through your underwear. spent my whole life listening to men talk about penises it’s about time they get jumpscared by women talking about pussy in crude detail on social media. go forth and goon my warriors
the way my mood switches back and forth from being depressed out of my mind to feeling like i’m on cloud nine at least 100 times a day is so exhausting actually
no one:
me: 😞>😐>😁>😞>😐>😁>😞>😐>😁>😞>😐>😁
