That feeling when you write over 1k words, then you reread and realize you've accomplished nothing narratively💀💀

Technically more than one line, but I think it works better together.
This is pretty much the only thing I've written these last few days, really need to get back ontop of it.
—and promptly runs headfirst into a pole. “Ow, fuck!” Carl exclaims, clutching his forehead. “That hurt! That really fucking hurt.” The world spins around him as he tries, and fails, to stand. His vision fades in and out, black spots freckling the sky. He tries to stand again, only to be pushed back down.
Thank you for the tag! I can't think of anyone to pass it onto 😅 so if you'd like to participate but haven't been tagged yet, here's your chance to jump in!

Carl was sitting on the counter—just how he told Jasper time and time again not to do, hypocrite. Martin was standing in front of him, wrapped in one of those hideously colourful nightgown.
Not writing anymore than that because I'm going to publish the fic in a few hours so stay tuned!

Took me far too long to figure out how to fix the notes, but should be all sorted now! Have fun reading, and feel free to fuel my ego with comments and kudos.

my fave writing reminder
honestly, this phrase has been on my mind more times than i can count. i've kidnapped it, taken it as a hostage with no ransom money because i need it to live permanently in my head.
#very much my mind set right now#i'm not very happy with my writing#but i know that if i just keep doing it#even if it's bad#then one day it'll get to the point where i am happy with it#i just need to keep going!

Quick update on what I'm doing right now:
I'm currently working on expanding my latest fic (Just my luck). I want to make it just a series of connected incidents across a case that Carl and Akram are working, where Carl has very bad luck, some may be subtler than others but in every chapter, something will go wrong.
Not fully sure where I want the fic to go, I'm still working on the first draft of chapter 2, then I need to go back to chapter 1 and polish it up so it makes sense for it to be part of a whole story.
There's no timeline for this, but I'd like to get it done in the next month or so. Hoping to get chapter 2 done by the end of the weekend, I'll admit though, it's going verry slowly
But anyway, here's an excerpt for all 4 people in the fandom!
-
The woman smiles, and nods in Akram’s direction, "Do you and your husband have kids of your own?"
“I—uhhh” Was all Carl could get out before Akram appeared behind him.
The lady smiles, “I was just thanking your husband here for taking such good care of Riley.”
“My husband?” Akram casts Carl a questioning look, then grins. “Yes, he’s great with kids. C’mon dear, we should be getting home.”
#This little section was the first that I thought of at the start of this chapter#it was going to be a seperate fic#but I felt like it'd make more sense to be part of something bigger?#honestly I'm having a really hard time deciding whether I want to go through with this or not#dept q#akarl#writerblr

I want to write some slice-of-life, ik I'm going to get so stuck on it though! Might have to do it with characters that Ik better than Carl and Akram.
people who write slice-of-life stories scare me. like how did you find a plot in a tuesday

Awh I know the feeling. Progress isn't linear though, and all the practice was still worth it!
Just made a drawing of Morck (copied from a picture) and it's not bad but also not great so I'm not going to colour it and I'm going to try it again tomorrow. It does look quite like him but for the eyes and the mouth. Like the rest of it looks pretty similar to the reference and then there are the eyes and the mouth that ruin it all

new fic in the fandom but it's mistagged and actually for an adaptation that follows a different continuity...... i didn't think the spirit of the marvel cinematic universe would follow me this far
#reblogging because I'm one of the people that was corrected on this#😅#(fixed now ofc)#comment and tell them#so this can be squashed early on
