Meet the Writer Tag

Thanks to @reining-in-the-fire-writing for tagging me. Sorry for taking so long, I just came back from taking a mental break. 

1. Do you keep multiple notebooks for your WIP or just keep everything all in one or on a computer?

I do both. I have two notebooks in which I write when I’m public places or when I need to get off the computer or when to draft any idea I get. But I do most of my writing on computer. 

2. Do you do anything to get you in the mood for writing?

Not really. Sometimes I get myself a beverage or a snack before I start but I’ve realized that there’s nothing that really gets me in the mood except for sitting down and slam the keyboard.

3. Do you have a daily writing goal?

Nope. If I manage a complete paragraph, I’m happy with that. 

4. What is the most time you’ve spent writing in one day?

Like 3 hours. 

5. What are you most proud of about your WIP?

About my fanfic, that I’m about to finish it. And about my WIP, that I’m very satisfied with the way my characters have turned out.

6. Is there anyone in your life that encouraged you to keep writing when all you wanted to do was give up?

I’m very private when it comes to my writing, and very few people know about it, yet I don’t show them any of it. I once showed my bff something I was working on, and he just told me it was too dark for his taste lol. But as for my fanfic, I always get happy when I read the comments and that keeps me motivated.

7. How has writing impacted your life?

It has been a great stress reliever for me, and has also helped me so much with my depression and to explore deeper in my imagination, though I struggle with words from time to time.

8. What is the cringiest thing you have ever written?

My Harry Potter fanfiction when I was in secondary school! I used to write CharacterxReader ff and uuugh what was I thinking? Haha

9. Do you want to make writing a career or is it just a hobby?

For now, it’s just a hobby, but if I end up making a career out of it, that’d be super cool.

10. Have you written anything today?

Yes, two sentences so far hahaha. I feel too sleepy to write today.

I’m supposed to write my own questions here but I’ll use your questions since I think they’re very interesting and I cannot think right now. 

I tag @writerchickcj, @a-deanskidgellwrites, @supersaiyansadie, @sensitivesapphic and anyone else who wants to do it. (Though, you don’t have to)

Writing Prompts

“To say I have good ideas is an understatement. I have amazing ideas.”

“Wanna watch this loser- oh my god that’s my loser.”

“We could go see a movie or we could stay up thinking about conspiracy theories.”

“Do you think the aliens will kill us or befriend us?”

“Um, I don’t think that’s a dog, honey.”

“You’re blaming me? Really? Who was the one covered in glow sticks the entire time?”

“Don’t you think you should have thought this through?”

“I’m not really feeling this whole, ‘save the world because I’m a nice person thing’ can we get paid to save it?”

“Why do I have to smile? Why can’t I scowl? I hate everyone here and everyone knows it.”

“Stop laughing! We are in the middle of a robbery!”

“Stop buying our pets clothes! At this rate they will have more clothes than we do!”

“Ever accidentally almost destroy the world? My twenties were wild.”

“Can you see me? I’m giving you the finger!”

“When you run out of ideas, just keep typing, a sentence is bound to form somehow.”

“Isn’t nature beautiful? Wanna go get a pizza?”

I swear, I have no problem with complete strangers reading my stuff, but sharing it with people who actually know me and who I have to see on a regular basis? Torture. Absolute Worst.
