I Hate Being A Writer - Blog Posts

6 months ago

It would be wayyyyyy too awkward to explain that yes, I wrote two gay men that go through extreme trauma together, but no, they aren’t official until the last third or so of the story (and all the little lore bits that I have to tell otherwise it would make sense).

reblog if you're a writer but would rather drink straight cyanide than show any of your family members your work

Me talking to myself

yes, I talk to myself in the second person. I will also use the fourth person collective on occasion.

“Why can’t I write what I want to today?”

maybe because what you want to write is a cohesive story and you would mostly be staring at that damn taunting, blinking line of a cursor on the Google Doc

“I want to write chronologically!” too bad, you’re thinking of a random scene that’s over halfway through the story. I don’t make the rules

“Why can’t I write the main plot?”

because I said so. Now go back to writing about what happened hundreds of years before the main plot to explain the tension between the two sides

“What’s this character’s name again?”

Think of a new one. You know what it is, and it causes the Tiffany Problem. Think of a new one, you fucking idiot
