Did I daydream this, or was there a website for writers with like. A ridiculous quantity of descriptive aid. Like I remember clicking on " inside a cinema " or something like that. Then, BAM. Here's a list of smell and sounds. I can't remember it for the life of me, but if someone else can, help a bitch out <3
physically go to your local library at least once. seriously.
look around. find a random book with a cover that catches your attention. read the description. read the first page. if you like the sounds of it, borrow it and take it home to read. borrow a handful of books even.
if a book loses your interest, drop it. if a book grips onto you, ride that wave.
i've struggled to read recreationally for years despite having read so much as a kid. a lot of us are frozen by the seemingly infinite choices. even when we buy books to take home, we don't read them because which book is worth reading first? we don't have to decide, we have it right here in our bookshelves, we have an eternity of never deciding.
in this past month, i have read five books, most of them i've never heard of when i spotted their cover at the library. most of them, i've ended up loving. the due date of library books maintains the ability to read a book so i can return them to the library and leave the library with more books. an even better incentive than borrowing ebooks, because i actually have to leave the house and not be a hermit.
so if you used to enjoy reading but struggle with it now, ignore the book recs you hear. go to the library, come across a book that piques your interest, and read one page after another until you either lose interest or finish the book.
then it's onto the next one.
No offense but I think some of you would be a lot happier writing a fictional atlas or encyclopedia instead of a narrative story

my main wip is still very much in the process of being thought out. basically it is a small town queer (wlw) romance that takes place in labrador, canada. lucy and ivy dated in high school, but ivy always had plans to move to vancouver and make it big when she was done. lucy could never leave her family. it's been almost a decade, and ivy is back in her small town with her tail between her legs - making it big wasn't as easy as she thought it would be.

as for tagging, i don't really do that as i feel kind of weird doing it??? BUT if you see this on your dash and you'd like to do it, consider yourself tagged by me and don't be afraid to tag me back so i can see it!
