After thousands of years spent on earth, it’s pretty baffling that we still need to tell each other that it’s ok to make mistakes, to cry and to basically be human (source)

“I would advise any beginning writer to write the first drafts as if no one else will ever read them — without a thought about publication — and only in the last draft to consider how the work will look from the outside.”

OK NVM I DONT HAVE ENERGY FOR ANYTHING BYE

[silverpeonyy]

Daily log 1

Decided to do this mini series to force myself to write everyday. This will certainly be random and not much interesting.

I started this day feeling horrible af. Deadass no will to get up, no energy to do things. Thank God, my class starts at 6pm. I get to mentally prepare myself for it. It went okay, but I needed to study further more for it else, rip. Also, I broke down in the shower grrr. And I’m thinking what can make me feel better? What can help me? But to be very honest, I don’t know too. I don’t know. I’ll just keep crying but at the end of the day, nothing changed. I don’t know if this is pain or emptiness... or both. I’m feeling more and more anxious each day. Looking back, I feel like there are things I can no longer do because of this. I feel like a failure... and I’m getting tired to fight. I wanna give up.

You know, if you’re ever feeling insecure about yourself, just imagine that you’re a kpop idol and you have a fan base.

That birthmark that you think looks weird? Your fans gush over it and say that you were kissed by an angel.

You have a scar that you’re embarrassed about? They never shut up about how cute it is and complain when it gets covered up by makeup.

You’re a female with a deep traditionally “masculine” voice? Literally everyone is gay for you. Even the straights.

On the flip side, you’re a male with a higher pitched “feminine” voice? Everyone loves hearing you talk, and you probably have a heavenly voice as well. Also they’re very gay for you as well.

Chubby cheeks that you’re insecure about? You have no idea how badly your fans want to squish them because you! Are! So! Darn! Cute!

Your two front teeth are crooked or spaced out slightly? Everyone thought that you were so cute, they started crying.

Weird laugh? Everyone loves how unique it sounds.

These are all examples I’ve seen in Kpop fandoms of stans complimenting these aspects of idols appearances. It can be a bit discouraging to see these beautiful people and compare yourself to them. Just remember that there is no single form of beauty, a lot of your idols also have body “imperfections” like the ones I described, and it’s okay to believe that you’re pretty.

And I think that you are very pretty as well. :)

Sometimes you just have to imagine yourself with a fanbase of loyal fans who find every aspect of you beautiful.

Stop following writeblrs...

If you start comparing your writing to someone else's and it's starting to affect your confidence as a writer.

If you feel afraid to used words like "said" or "looked" because they've told you they are not good enough.

If you think you should force yourself to make an outline or plan ahead just because you've been told you have to.

If you feel your characters are not interesting or flawed enough, just because they don't fit someone else's requirements of what a fictional should be.

If you are too focused on writing in a certain way to actually enjoy the process of writing.

If nothing you write seems good enough because it doesn't fit certain standards.

If you feel like you are not a good writer because none of those "tips" and "advices" work for you.

Write whatever you want, however you want. Not matter how shitty you think your writing is, I promise you someone will absolutely love it.

I went from writing once in a blue moon to becoming someone who writes a minimum of 1k a day

Those of you who know me know that I am not one of those writers who write every single day. In fact, you’d be hard-pressed to find me write at all.

I am so proud and excited to announce that I have written every single day since April 10th — and because of that, my writing partner @decantae​ (McH) and I reached 100k words in our newest project today! (Almost as exciting is the fact that 50k of that was written exactly in one month. Neither of us have ever expected that we would be able to win Nanowrimo ever in our lives, but this is proof that we can write 50k in one month, even if its not during the event. We somehow managed to squeeze in the last 10k in three days which is WILD).

I used to find every excuse to procrastinate on writing. I was constantly creatively constipated because I wanted to create but I couldn’t. I literally couldn’t even fathom writing every day, or even wanting to because writing was so difficult. No one is more shocked than I am that suddenly, I am dying to write every day. I go to sleep excited because when I wake up, I get to write more. When I’m not writing, I’m waiting for McH to write their part of the story so that I can write mine. At first, writing 1k a day seemed like a great accomplishment but now we’re writing upwards of 5k without realizing it, until we look at the page number and word count in shock.

I have fallen so utterly in love with writing in the past few months. 

Frankly I’m shocked that we have yet to run into a wall or a block. It has been 100k of near effortless writing. We’ve experienced absolutely no frustrations, only excitement and almost constant writing.

McH deserves the biggest of shout-outs: My best friend in the world, my writing soulmate, and the best writer I have ever known. I am so blessed to have met them, and the fact that they like me and my writing too is the biggest blessing I have ever had the fortune of receiving. I am so in love with their writing style, and every time I read it I die inside because it’s so well-written and effortlessly descriptive. They make the most alive, interesting, three-dimensional characters, and I have the privilege of interacting and shipping with them. I never was someone who actively worked to improve my writing, but after meeting them and writing with them, all I do is analyze my own writing to see how I could improve, so that someday my own writing can hold its own with theirs, so that I could catch up with them.

Having a writing partner who not only is my absolute favorite writer, but also someone who is consistently on the same page as me to the point of us being convinced that somehow we have developed telepathy has been the best thing I have ever had the honor of experiencing. If it wasn’t for them, I would not be writing today, nor would I have been able to build this writeblr from the ground up.

I can’t ever imagine writing without them. 

More details on this project will follow in a different post (it’s also our Camp Nano project!). I am so excited to share this project with you all — it’s changed my life, and has been, by far the most fun I have ever had with writing. But for now, I just wanted to scream about this accomplishment in excitement, and shout my love of @decantae to the stars.

Thanks for reading and stay tuned~

To me, success isn't outscoring someone, it's the peace of mind that comes from self-satisfaction in knowing you did your best. That's something each individual must determine for himself.
