Some advice for when you’re writing and find yourself stuck in the middle of a scene:
kill someone
ask this question: “What could go wrong?” and write exactly how it goes wrong
switch the POV from your current character to another - a minor character, the antagonist, anyone
stop writing whatever scene you’re struggling with and skip to the next one you want to write
write the ending
write a sex scene
use a scene prompt
use sentence starters
read someone else’s writing
Never delete. Never read what you’ve already written. Pass Go, collect your $200, and keep going.

things people do in real world dialogue:
• laugh at their own jokes
• don’t finish/say complete sentences
• interrupt a line of thought with a sudden new one
• say ‘uh’ between words when unsure
• accidentally blend multiple words together, and may start the sentence over again
• repeat filler words such as ‘like’ ‘literally’ ‘really’ ‘anyways’ and ‘i think’
• begin and/or end sentences with phrases such as ‘eh’ and ‘you know’, and may make those phrases into question form to get another’s input
• repeat words/phrases when in an excited state
• words fizzle out upon realizing no one is listening
• repeat themselves when others don’t understand what they’re saying, as well as to get their point across
• reply nonverbally such as hand gestures, facial expressions, random noises, movement, and even silence

Would you ever want to co-write with someone? And if you do, are there any authors that you'd want to co-write something with?
I have always wanted to, and there are times where I and another author planned to write something together, but it never really happens. I would love to co-write with anyone, but tbh I’m still afraid that my skill is not up to par with my partners ;;

some reincarnation AUs
I fell in love with you three lifetimes ago and I’ve been looking for you ever since but I’ve been starting to give up and my friends’s new crush has your eyes and oh god I’m not going to steal someone’s date just because I’m hoping you’re the person I met in a past life (jk yes I am)
I’ve met you in every single lifetime and I always hope it will work out but it doesn’t but I’ll still keep finding you again because those few days/months/years together with you are always so worth it 
 I meet and fall in love with you in every lifetime at the same age but your age is always different so it never works out and for the first time I’m meeting you when we’re the same age and I’m horrified that I might fuck this up 
 I skipped like four cycles of reincarnation and I know you’re pissed at me for leaving you all those lifetimes but it wasn’t my fault please please will you take me back 
 We only remember each other in alternating lifetimes so every lifetime we have to find one another and convince each other that we’re soul mates but half the time I won’t believe you and half the time you’re already dating someone else 
 I don’t know how to tell you this but the reason you didn’t see me in our last reincarnation cycle is because for some fucked up reason I was reincarnated as your dog 
 We keep reincarnating as people who speak different languages and it’s kind of pissing me off because I can never initially confirm if it’s you but at least I keep learning a bunch of cool new languages each lifetime

Kirara hampir tak pernah dapat menjawab jika Kise mempertanyakan hubungan macam apa yang sebenarnya mereka jalani. Bukan karena Kirara tak menyukai Kise, bukan pula karena Kirara tak tahu apa yang ia inginkan dari Kise dan hubungan mereka. Justru sebaliknya, Kirara sangat, sangat menyayangi Kise. Rasanya ia tak pernah menyukai seseorang seperti ini sebelumnya. Terkadang Kirara sendiri bingung mengapa ia bisa menyukai seseorang sepenuh hati seperti ini. Mungkin bahkan jika Kise nantinya akan memperlakukan Kirara seperti sampah, Kirara akan tetap tak dapat membencinya.
Tapi justru karena itu—Kirara takut. Takut kalau ia terlalu mengikat Kise, ia akan justru kehilangan Kise. Takut bahwa Kise akan justru menjadi membencinya dan muak padanya. Karena Kirara tahu, bahwa ia bukanlah orang yang akan membiarkan orang yang disayanginya menyerah dan pergi begitu saja. Ia adalah orang yang melelahkan orang lain.
Ia tak tahu apa yang akan dilakukannya jika Kise suatu hari nanti benar-benar pergi darinya. Ia tak mau berpikiran seperti itu, namun tetap saja ia merasa takut. Ia sudah pernah tahu seperti apa rasanya kehilangan. Ia tak mau merasakannya kembali dan ia terlalu sayang Kise untuk dapat membiarkannya benar-benar pergi. Mungkin jika Kise pergi, Kirara akan mengikutinya, kemana pun ia pergi.
(Kise tak tahu ini, tapi biar itu neraka yang Kise tuju, Kirara akan tetap mengikutinya.)

DBT Self-Help Resources: Emotions List
Using an Emotions List to help Label an Emotion
Some people are more adept at labelling their emotions than others. Some people just can’t seem to name what they are currently feeling. They might say that they felt bad or upset, but pinning down what that actually means for them is more challenging. Many people walk around in this kind of emotional fog.
Unfortunately, if you don’t know what you are feeling, you can’t do much to change it. People who can name their emotions are more capable of managing them, so it is important to become more familiar with your emotions and learn to identify them.
Once you are more capable of naming your emotions, you’ll have more choices in terms of what to do with an emotion if it makes you feel uncomfortable and you would prefer to at least reduce its intensity. Many people with emotion dysregulation grow up without learning this important information, so for some people it takes a lot of time to get the hang of naming their emotions. Be patient. If you get frustrated, reframe this process as if you are learning a new language. In fact, that’s exactly what is happening: you are learning the language of emotion.
Anytime you are unable to identify the emotion you are experiencing refer to the Emotions List. Reading through it, you should be able to find a word that closely describes the emotion that you are experiencing.
