My fave & least favorite things about being a writer

Yay I'm a writer:

perceiving books differently than non writers

finishing a piece

designing characters

choosing chapter titles

finally figuring out how to fix a plot hole

when writing just becomes so smooth and rolls from your brain like an old film strip

writing romantic scenes of my fave ship

sharing my writing with people

those random top tier ideas you have to jot down before they go away in 10 seconds

thinking about people loving your story in the future

developing villains

making playlists & moodboards for my wips

writing desperation (for some reason ??)

Please never again:

describe the setting correctly

coming up with a cover

the first draft.

"so which ending would make the most sense'

share my writing with people

killing my fave character (i do it anyways)

trying to remember a word i cant even describe

make the side character parents well rounded

that one super cool idea you get 3/4 way through the story that doesn't actually fit anywhere

actually having to fix plot holes

writing.

# rotting with ambivalence

i don't write poetry often, so this is likely not written well; and i have an unusual speech pattern, so this may not flow well aside from in my own reading; enjoy

i look at you and all i know is fading

my sense of couth lost, as im found desperately trying to reach it

all im bound to find is despair.

but you know that right?

youll tear me down to shame, night by night;

"my heart is not for the taking"

though this bruise feels all too loving

and so do my words.

another crack is left on my lips

i beg for you to think about me just once

to think about me in the sense of family.

we both know youll never get there

instead ill look for whats left of you;

i see you in the swans, their beauty suddenly ruined

i sit and watch as they deceive their admirers;

ill never blame them.

how do you reconnect to life after being disconnected for so long

No matter how much you dislike your own writing, I promise you it’s better than AI

Book tropes & dynamics i love (in no order)
