this is your reminder to read the fic that has like 10 kudos! until someone gives it a chance, that’s where it will stay. the best shit you’ve never read is sitting on ao3 waiting for you to read it. kudos and bookmarks are awesome but they aren’t always indicative of something great.

affirmations for writers: i know how to write. i have seen sentences before, and i know how to make one. i can identify up to several words and their meanings. i am not afraid of semicolons.

I aspire to be that consistent “updates every week” writer, but in reality I update whenever my brain decides it’s done. Could be the next day, could be next month, who knows

sometimes writing feels like dragging your brain across gravel. but at least the gravel is sparkly. and covered in metaphors.

write a new scene → realize it contradicts something from chapter 3 → fix chapter 3 → now chapter 7 makes no sense → cry → repeat
