One of My favorite writing skills I have is that I am Excellent at paralleling scenes to later and earlier scenes and weaving in my main idea to So much dialogue and Subtle action scene shit (in part Because My mind likes to parallel 1 scene I work on to another I've already written or will write)

So like. I love parallels so when I reread my stuff it's such a joy to find all the foreshadowing treasures and Main Idea getting hammered home just throughout everything

#rant #writing #mejo writing #i think. it has to do with me thinking of scenes like acting or play scenes in my head #so the character Motive or Goal should parallel their future arc Or tell u about their past arc up to this point etc #anyway i was having SUCH a writers block for my original shit when last night #my brain was like OKAY open on a parallel to where the story heads LATER.#once i did that? easy! RIDICULOUSLY easy #i think i cracked the code on how to push myself thru writers blocks!#i was like: okay so LATER he falls for a bad guy he will try to kill #but rn hes in high school and plot just started: rhe bully he will later date shoves him into a locker #and he yells IM GONNA KILL YOU and. YES THAT WAS IT #thats what i needed! the parallel!#the young innocence of a teen not meaning it and a Bad Guy future love interest whos mostly just another dumb teen once the plot kicks off.#but LATER that teen will become an adult who DOES plan to kill someone. who Does mean that phrase. who Does fall for a bad guy but a REAL #threat to the world. a seriously awful person.#that was the parallel i needed to figure out how the fuck to structure these scenes
