Obviously I get inspiration from things I’ve read, but I am also inspired by my favorite movies, shows, anime and manga.
It’s bothersome when I feel like I can’t bring that up when I talk to other writers.
Writer wants to write, but writer’s depression doesn’t care. Writer isn’t blocked, so much as they are drained. Countless words and ideas on the top of their tongue and they can’t speak. Their pen rests on their desk, useless. If writer does not write, are they useless? Was writer wrong to allow depression to be a thief, to steal their love, their job, and their joy? Should writer try to fight, reclaim their humanity, even if it’s just to finish a sentence, or should they concede?
Or I let my anxiety think, “what’s the worse that could happen?”
“how do you come up with your plots?” i let my intrusive thoughts win.
Me: changes my stories timeline and everyone’s age
Also me: roasts my characters for getting their kids ages wrong while I edit
Okay, I made some hard decisions, and we’re down to 10 wips. I think this is a manageable amount. Let’s see how many I can finish this year
I’m writing a second draft for the first time, and it’s both exciting and terrifying. We’ll see how it goes!
There is nothing worse than having inspiration and the will to write and having to go to work, knowing you won’t have it in you to write after.
Serious question: is 11 writing projects (long fanfics or novels) too many?
All the time, except the way my adhd is set up I never remember. I’ve googled paradigm meaning so many times, and I still couldn’t tell you what it means.
Anybody else keep having to search up words you learnt from reading just to make sure it means what you think? Cus I just had to search up the word perturbed cus I only had the feeling of the word.
in means feeling anxious or unsettled btw.
