i would rather never ever realise my lifelong dream of becoming a published author than resort to generative ai for it. that would not be an accomplishment but an embarrassment on my death bed

Every time I'm away from my computer I want to write. I wan't to get my ideas out and edit my drafts and be productive. every time I sit at my computer to write I want to get as far away from it as I can

"Just prioritise your time"

My ideas and WIPs:

This just cured me of my fear of sounding stupid in smut scenes cause what on the good green earth was THAT?!

I feel like I suffered a stroke trying to read and comprehend that mess

A wip of an upcoming Timothy Timepiece!!

I love him!! He's so silly and I enjoy his sass so much :3

Does anyone else find it incredibly hard to write as a hyper fixation hopping ADHD'er. Because every single solitary piece of media I consume like the very hungry caterpillar I go, "oh I like this idea, I should write that!" But then I go, "is that plagiarism or inspiration?"

Is it an AU or canon? I have that power and I abuse it.

me: okay, tonight i’m locking in. i’m going to write all night, become a literary weapon and finish my chapter. i won’t just write the wip, i will be the wip. i’ll be unstoppable! relentless! unbreakable! so powerful the writing gods will have to restrain me themselves—

also me, 3 hours later: *giggling at yet another cursed tumblr post while my opened word doc glares at me with only 5 new words and a shameful half-finished sentence*

give your characters exes.

give them a variety of exes. give them relationships that shaped who they are but did not last. give them people they tried very hard to love but it didn't work out. give them situationships that taught them things. give them something deep that was real but could not endure. things that hurt. things that ended amicably. people with whom hot passion cooled to warm affection and became undying friendship.

no more first and only. give me the context of what made them know the next or one after was final and right.

People who use AI to write just don't understand. AI could never compare to the deranged story ideas that my mentally ill brain cooks up at 3AM.

imagining your otp doing the forehead touch is literally the most important thing in the whole world. everybody take a second and stop scrolling and imagine your otp doing the forehead touch. okay. you can move on now.

The best quality a fictional man can have is being deeply, pathetically, wretchedly in love with someone, I think

You know what? Screw it. *untraumatizes your oc*

If you're in pain, rest as best you can. If you think writing will help you do so: regardless of how polished you want it to be (like the show don't tell thing)

Do it anyway.

You can edit a bad draft.

You can see where you told instead of showed.

You can't edit a blank page.

You can't change the tell for a show if you don't *tell*.

Write it first for yourself.

Then rest, let it stew.

Come back and edit it and make it better.

Guys why can't I write

Like I can

I have ideas

but

I can't put them into words

I'm having trouble with the whole "Show Don't Tell" thing

and everything in me is telling me to just stop and play Cats and Soup: Magic Recipe (#notsponsored)

I'm in so much physical, mental, and emotional pain
