Writers Problems - Blog Posts
That moment when one of your MCs makes a decision you hadn’t planned on and now you both have to live with the consequences of her actions
Literally the most relatable thing. Only Ao3 writers get it.
As a writer I don't plan anything. If some inspiration hits me, I'll just write it out. All my plot lines and different storylines are a blur and I can't tell which is which.
And yet I don't want to organize anything at all.
i hope that our few remaining readers give up on that unfinished wip from seven years ago
and i hope we come up with a failsafe plot that piss off the dumb few that keep commenting all the ways they'd write it differently
in my life i hope i lie and tell everyone the next chapter will be out on time
and i hope i write (i hope we all write)
i hope you write (i hope we both write)
writing tip: don’t tell us your character’s backstory. don’t tell us what your character is thinking. don’t tell us what your character is doing. don’t tell us anything. the reader should simply look at a blank page and be suddenly overcome with emotion.
sometimes i wish it didn’t take me so long to rediscover my love for writing. it’s something i LOVED as a kid. i loved books and was so mesmerized by the fictional world. then that love got lost as i grew older and i only just started rediscovering it almost two years ago.
can’t help but wonder how much closer i’d be to my writing dreams had i rediscovered my love for it sooner or never lost it to begin with.
