Friendly Reminder That Scribe Haylen Risks Her Life To Save Danse.

Yeah you're right. It WOULD be pretty fucked up if you were a swan but you were raised by ducks and you grew up never seeing another swan or even knowing that such a thing as a swan even existed so you just thought you were a duck with something super wrong with it.

LOVE YOUR WRITING SM!!! you probably could've guessed this was coming by now but could you please do the motive prompt w the drv3 cast please? Keep up the amazing work!!! 💞

Thanks so much! I appreciate that! And yes, I completely and totally saw this coming😁And I finally finished it!

So sorry for making you wait, but I do hope it was worth it!

This got so long, I'm surprised Tumblr didn't crash😅 So I put a "keep reading" under here

Monokuma's Motive - DV3 Edition

It had been a couple days since the last motive.

Nobody had attempted anything, and Monokuma seemed to have backed off of everyone, so everyone was at ease.

And it was all thanks to you.

Thanks to your charisma and friendliness, you managed to convince the others not to give in to despair and kill their classmates. Without any recent motives, it was even easier.

But all that was thrown out the window when Monokuma summoned everyone to the gym.

You exchange an anxious look with your significant other before heading there together. 

And there was Monokuma, along with his Monokubs.

"Well! Hello, hello, my wonderful students!" Monokuma greeted everyone.

"Hey, you bastards! We have something to say to you!" Monotaro started.

"Yeah, um... Our father is very displeased with you all." Monophanie added.

"Yeah, it's been what, a whole fuckin' week, and nobody's done shit! We've been sittin' on our asses, waiting for the next kill, but nothing's happened!" Monokid shouted.

"We've been waiting patiently, but nobody's done a thing! So now, you bastards are in for it!" Monosuke finished.

Monodam said nothing.

"That's right! You've all done nothing but sit on your butts for this past week! After I worked so hard on those motives, too..."

Monokuma looked down in an almost convincing display of despair. But he recovered quickly, and you were sure he shot you a glare.

"But not to worry! I have a shiny new motive all ready to go, but this time with a twist!"

Everyone stiffened anxiously, waiting for Monokuma to elaborate.

"This time, there is a selected target you must kill. There is one person, and only one, that you can kill. Any other kills don't count and will count as a rule violation! And you all know how I feel about breaking rules..."

"A target?"

"Wonder what that could be..."

"It could be anyone..."

Your classmates began muttering and mumbling amongst each other while you froze, looking at Monokuma with a bewildered expression. Your significant other took your hand with a concerned look, but you barely noticed.

You knew what was coming, and that sadistic grin Monokuma gave you told you everything.

"And now, your target... is (Name)!"

Your blood turned cold at those words.

Shuichi Saihara

"What?! Why?? They didn't do anything!"

Except get in Monokuma's way

Now poor detective boi is on the edge now

After the meeting, he quickly pulls on your hand and takes you to his room

His anxiety is clear on his face and his stiff posture

He can't even hide it from you

You let him fall asleep on your chest that night, and it makes him feel at ease

But he still can't help but worry

He holds your hand at all times, and doesn't leave your side ever

He doesn't fully trust anyone with you either

He prefers to just stay in his lab or either of your rooms for most of the day

He wants to avoid the truth as best as he can

But he knows Monokuma won't let up until something happens to you, no matter how much you try to avoid it

Which is exactly why he's so scared

Rantaro Amami 

"What? Why? Why (Name)?"

He only appears mildly shocked, but on the inside, he's terrified

He doesn't even try to hide it

When you leave and go to his room, he immediately takes you into his arms

He holds you like you'll disappear the second he lets you go

He falls asleep on your chest that night

After that, he'll be very protective over you

He'll act cold, sometimes rude, towards the others when they get too close to you

He doesn't mean to, but he's not taking any risks

Then he'll take your hand and pull you away

He acts very stiff when you're out, afraid of the future

At night, he lays beside you, holding you tightly while laying on your chest as you stroke his wonderful avocado locks

This is not gonna be easy for either of you

Kokichi Oma 

"What?"

For a second, a brief second, his playful demeanor wavers

He stands in shock, staring at Monokuma

But as quickly as it happened, he lets out a fake laugh while pretending he doesn't care

But the second you return to your room, he jumps on you and latches onto you like a koala

You bring him to his bed and hold him as he releases his fears

The next day, his clinginess is multiplied by ten

He prefers to stay in your room with you all day

He doesn't want to let you leave

If you try to, he wraps his arms around your waist while giving you puppy dog eyes

"Whaaaat? You wanna go outside? Whyyyy? Don't you wanna stay here with me? Aww, you're so meeeeann!"

He plays it off as him just being cute and clingy, but he's genuinely terrified for you

If you reeeeallly wanna go outside, he'll begrudgingly let you leave, but only when he's with you

He either holds your hand or hugs your arm

And if anyone gets too close, he face darkens and he wears a sadistic smile

"You'd better stay away from them before I sic all my D.I.C.E members on you."

They think he's bluffing, but he's dead serious

Then at nighttime, he clings onto you while either laying on top of you or having one of you lay on the other's chest

He prefers not to talk about the whole situation, so he'll either comfort you or ask for your comfort

He'll run his fingers through your hair while promising to keep you safe

When he's laying on your chest, he just stays silent

These moments are when he's at his most honest

Whether that's verbally or non-verbally

Kokichi is a very protective, very clingy koala

Kaito Momota 

"Wha-? What the hell are you talking about?!”

He is not pleased

You'll need to hold his arm back from shoving his knuckles down the bear's throat

Then you'll have to pull him back to your room

He's fuming, but he's doing his best not to let it show

Then he'll sit next to you on the bed and wrap his arms around you

You can feel the fear and anxiety in how tightly he holds you

You gently guide his head to your chest as you go to sleep

Like Kokichi, he would much rather stay inside with you

Anyone would, honestly

But if you have to leave, he'll act as your personal bodyguard

If anyone acts funny, he'll glare at them and crack his knuckles

And if Kokichi cracks any jokes, he's immediately gonna get a face full of pain

He doesn't trust anyone, even Maki

He tries not to let his fear show, but he's as obvious as it gets

He's not very good at hiding his feelings

Kaito does his best to comfort you, but sometimes, he'll need it too

He doesn't like talking about the situation, and would much rather just chill inside with you

He desperately wants to keep up his cool, upbeat personality, but it's difficult

He's dreading what's to come in the future

Gonta Gokuhara 

Starts tearing up right on the spot

"What...? Why scary bear choose (Name) as his next target...?"

The moment you leave and go back to your room, he picks you up and holds you close to his chest

You feel your shoulder dampen, and you can tell he's crying

You take this to the bed and he holds you close to him, like a teddy bear

And the next day, he goes from gentleman to gentlemanly bodyguard

If anyone gets too close, he kindly, but sternly asks them to leave you alone

He feels bad for not being more like a gentleman, but you're more important now

Then at night, he holds you tight and close to him

He wants to make you feel safe, and it makes him feel safe knowing you're there

But he has a sinking feeling that it won't last long

Korekiyo Shinguji 

"I beg your pardon...?"

You can't really tell by the mask, but he is very shocked

You can see his eyes widen

When you leave and return to your room, he just kind of sits for a minute, processing the whole thing

Then he takes your hand in his

"This is quite the horrifying situation, dear. But I promise that I will not let anything happen to you. I swear on my life."

He is probably the most chill, despite being so worried

He doesn't act overprotective, but he'll give anyone he doesn't trust a good glare, and it'll have 'em running

He may not look it, but he is very worried

He prefers to be the one comforting you, believing you need it more

But at night, while he holds you, if you let him rest on your chest, he will melt into it

At some point, he considers committing a murder to lessen the amount of contestants of killing you

He knows it will get him killed, but maybe it'll be worth it...

But for now, he'll stay by your side and protect you, in any way he can

No matter what happens, he will keep his word

Even if he has to kill to do it

Ryoma Hoshi 

"You bastard. You did this on purpose, didn't you?"

Indeed he did

Monokuma wanted to be rid of you

When you leave the room, Ryoma just stands in front of the door for a second, frustrated and worried

He may land a punch to the door a couple times

Then he sits beside you on the bed and takes your hand in both of his tiny ones

"Hey, kid. I know this situation is super scary and whatnot, but even though I'm small, I'm not letting anyone lay their hands on you. I'll be damned if things go Monokuma's way."

He knows he can't do much, so he just stays inside with you most of the time

If you need anything, he'll just go and grab it for you, making sure the door is locked

He's not normally a fan of this, but he'll let you hold him close to you, like a teddy bear

He knows this must be terrifying, so he'll do whatever helps you

Ryoma may be small, but he'll do protect you in any way he can

Over his dead body will anyone take you out

K1-B0/Kiibo 

"H-Huh?! Why would you pick them?! They didn't do anything wrong!"

Not to Monokuma

Kiibo doesn't understand why he would target you

I mean, you've been the one keeping the peace the whole time

But that's exactly why Monokuma needed to be rid of you

Kiibo has no idea how to process this, or what to do

But he can see that you're worried about it, so he pulls you close and hugs you

"Don't be afraid, (Name)! I'll protect you!"

He's confident in his abilities as a robot

He won't force you to stay inside, but he will strongly suggest it

If he's bothered by someone's presence, he will politely and meekly ask them to leave

He considers asking Miu to upgrade him so he has more accessories he can use to protect you

Then he worries that she might break him somehow

He wants to be there to protect you, and he doesn't want to take any risks

But then, getting an upgrade may be the thing he needs

At night, he'll hold you to comfort you if you need him to

Or he'll use any of his robot accessories to entertain you or comfort you somehow

In the end, whether Kiibo gets an upgrade or not, he's still gonna protect you

Kaede Akamatsu 

"Huh?? Why (Name)?! What did they ever do to you?!"

Put a damper on the killing game, that's what

You can see her body stiffen and an expression of fear on her face

When you leave, she basically immediately runs into your chest

You'll bring her to sit on the bed and let her rest on your chest for a little

She tells you how afraid she is of the situation, and of losing you

You'll go to sleep with her laying on your chest, but she doesn't go to sleep yet

She watches you sleep, delicately stroking your face with her thumb, thinking about everything

Then when you start to separate from her, she'll pull you into her chest instead

From then on, she swears to keep you safe

She prefers to stay inside with you while you spend the day together

Whether that's you resting on her shoulder while she plays piano, her watching you play a game, or just enjoying each other's company, she's happy

But if you need to leave for whatever reason, you'll go together

If anyone she doesn't trust approaches you, she'll ask them to leave you alone before pulling you away

She doesn't trust anyone, not even Shuichi or Rantaro

At night, she likes to play soothing melodies on her piano before you sleep

And she'll let you sleep on her chest

But if you offer her comfort, she will resist very little

Then she'll sleep on your chest too

Kaede often feels like she can't do much, but she will do whatever she can to keep you safe

Maki Harukawa 

"Do you wanna die?"

The one time she means it the most, and she can't even say it with the same unbothered demeanor

Her voice sounds so small, so weak

She sounds so vulnerable, even though she means it for real

When you leave, Maki kind of just sits, looking down at the floor

She's processing the news while wondering what she's gonna do about it

You tap her on the shoulder and ask if she's alright

She looks at you before slowly shaking her head

"No..."

You wrap her arms around her and pull her close to you

She confesses that she's horrified of losing you, and that she feels powerless

That night, she falls asleep laying on your chest

The next morning, she becomes hellbent on making sure you survive this BS

She much prefers staying inside, to keep you away from the "idiots"

But if you insist on leaving, she'll begrudgingly come with you

Anyone who approaches you is immediately met with a death glare

That's usually all it takes to make them leave

Then you do what you need to do and go back to your room

She has a knife and a pistol on her at all times

And she has her lab locked tightly so no one attempts to break in

She seriously considers just going on a killing spree just so your chances of survival are higher

She'll do it, just say the word

She will put her true talent to good use with no question

But you can tell what she's thinking, and just ask her not to do anything rash

She promises to use her talent to protect you, in a very vague manner

She doesn't say how she's gonna do it, just that she'll do whatever's necessary

You don't like this, but you decide to just keep your mouth shut

At night, she always holds you close to her chest

For your comfort, and because it makes her feel that she can protect you, which is reassuring

But she is very stubborn about letting you do the same for her

She doesn't like accepting comfort

It makes her feel weak

But when she finally gives in, she realizes that it actually feels really nice

In the end, Maki is hella protective over you

She doesn't want to kill anyone, but she'll be damned if Monokuma's motive comes to pass

She'll do whatever is necessary to protect you, and make sure you survive

Miu Iruma 

"What the fuck?! Why the fuck are you picking (Name), you shitty piece of scrap metal?!"

She is fuming

She'll definitely spout some swears and insults at the bear

But she doesn't waste her time with violence, despite her many threats of dismantling him

After the meeting, she just takes your hand and pulls you away

Upon returning to your room, she walks in circles while ranting angrily about the situation

Then she'll look at you and sigh before sitting with you

She'll wrap her arm around your waist and pull you close while you lay your head on her shoulder

"Hey, babe. I know you're probably scared shitless right now. But I'll be damned if any of these thots try anything. You bet your ass that the gorgeous girl genius is gonna keep you safe." 

That night, she'll have you lay on her chest and stroke your hair while holding you close with her other arm

After that, she'll spend a lot of time working on inventions that can be used to protect you

You express concern over this, but she snaps back that she's "doin' this for you, dumbass!"

But if you try to go outside, she'll demand that you stay inside

"Hey, you'd better keep your ass in here! You don't know what those flat-assed fools are planning on doing to you!"

It takes a lot of convincing to pull her away from her work, but if you sit next to her, she'll wrap one arm around your waist without looking away

Eventually puts together a robot bodyguard to walk with you when you need to leave for whatever reason

And she makes a security system for the door, the room, and outside the room

Then she starts panicking that it's not enough, then you cup her cheeks and tell her that all you need is her

And finally, she'll step away and just be there for you

When you go outside, you'll go together

She'll scream at anyone who approaches you before pulling you away

At night, she's one of the few people here who will immediately indulge in your comfort

She's probably more stressed then you are, honestly

She loves laying on your chest at night

But if you say the word, she'll pull you into hers

Overall, Miu is horribly stressed out about this, and you'd best believe she'll be putting her talent to good use to help you

Himiko Yumeno 

"Nyeh?! Why? What did they do?"

She doesn't act super emotional, but her eyes widen in shock

When you leave, she's not really sure how to process the whole thing

But she is very worried about you dying

So she climbs into your lap and wraps her arms around you and lays on your chest

"Nyeh... I know this is super scary. But   don't be scared. If anyone tries to kill you, I'll put a curse on them! Or... Turn them into a frog! Or frogs...? I dunno, but I'll do something."

You can't help but smile at how cute she is

You fall asleep with her on top of you, holding each other tightly

The next day, she kinda just treats it as a normal day

Whether you stay inside or not is kind of up to you, honestly

If you want to stay in, she's fine with it

She either sleeps, performs tricks, or does one or both while being with you

If you need some fresh air, great

She'll walk with you while you both do your thing

Either way, she's not leaving you alone

Staying together is the best method of safety

And she doesn't trust anyone with you

Not Angie, not Tenko

If anyone approaches you, she'll kind of just pout at them and pull you away

At night, she just cuddles up to you like normal

If you need to be comforted, she'll let you sleep on her chest

But when you offer to do the same, she insists she doesn't need it

When she practices her magic, she's trying to conjure up a powerful spell she can use to protect you somehow

It's kind of her main focus, besides you

Whether or not it turns out a success, Himiko will still be by your side, and will do whatever she can to protect you

Angie Yonaga 

"What? Atua did not warn me of this..."

She kind of just stands in shock for a moment

Then when you return to your room, she returns to her sunny, cheerful self

She'll sit with you on the bed and take your hands in hers

"Do not worry, (Name)! Atua will protect you! And so will I! You have nothing to worry about!"

And then she'll hold you close and comfort you

After that, she kind of just treats it like a normal day

She'll do her art pieces and you'll do your thing until you want to leave

She'll usually say something like, "No, (Name)! Atua wants you to stay inside! It's much safer for you!"

But if you really need some fresh air, she'll come with you

She doesn't particularly distrust anyone, but if someone comes up to you and gives her bad vibes, she'll quickly scare 'em off

She'll widely smile at them and threaten to use their blood (or them as a whole) as a sacrifice to Atua

That quickly has them running for their money

Then she'll apologize, but not regret it

"My apologies, (Name)! But Atua tells me that we shouldn't trust them!"

Then you'll go back to your room and continue going about your business

Angie may act completely unconcerned or unbothered about the whole thing, but she actually is a little worried

But she believes (and hopes) that Atua will help you survive in the end

Kirumi Tojo 

"You are truly deplorable. How could you just blindly choose my significant other?" 

Oh, it wasn't blind at all

It was purely intentional

Kirumi is not happy

When you leave, she starts dusting the window to distract herself

Ends up breaking the duster because she was holding it too tight

Then she sits beside you on the bed and takes your hand

"I know this must be scary for you, love. But I will do whatever I must to ensure your survival. Not only as your maid, but as your partner. Please, tell me what I can do."

You ask her to just hold you that night, which she gladly obliges

The day after, she insists you stay inside to increase the chances of safety

She'll stay in with you, and occupy herself by doing chores

She also checks on you very often, asking if you need anything or if you need her to do anything

But if either of you needs something from outside, she'll begrudgingly leave, but have you stay inside

She'll go get whatever she's looking for and come back to you as quickly as possible, her panic rising the longer she's away

For once, she'll ignore any requests from anyone else

She's not their maid anymore

She's yours

And you're her top priority now

Then she'll be relieved that you're alright and both of you will continue to go about your day

At night, she'll hold you close to your chest, play with your hair and whisper soft words to you for as long as you want

She wants to be the one giving you comfort

It'll take a lot to convince her to relax and let you comfort her, but when she gives in, you hold her the exact same way she's been doing

In the end, Kirumi may be a maid, but she's your maid

And she's not letting anyone lay their dirty, crusty fingers on you

Tenko Chabashira 

"What?! Them?! You degenerate bear! I'll use my Neo-Aikido on you!"

You'll have to hold her back from drop kicking the bear

You'll go to her lab instead of your room

She needs to get her anger out

Once you leave, she'll start kicking and punching the practice dummies she has in her lab while ranting angrily

It won't take long before she's exhausted and the fear sets in

And then she immediately tackles you in a hug, crying into your chest

She's horrified of losing you

But that night, when she holds you tight to her chest, she decides that she'll do anything to prevent that from happening

She would much prefer to stay inside with you, but if you must go outside, she'll stick to you like glue the whole time

She is very anxious and very paranoid

She doesn't trust anyone near you, not even the girls

And God forbid one of the boys dare approach you...

They're getting a very sharp uppercut

She'll keep her hands off the girls, but she still can't trust them

And her clinginess is increased by 20%

She's holding onto your arm every single second you're out

And when you go back in, she tightly wraps her arms around you while laying on your chest or shoulder

Even more so at night

She prefers to give you comfort, but she won't resist you giving her some too

In the end, Tenko will not let anyone kill you

And she sure as hell isn't letting anyone kill her either

She needs to be by your side to keep you safe

She will do whatever it takes for the both of you to survive, no matter what

Note: I omitted Tsumugi because she's the mastermind, so I had no idea what to put for her. Hope that's alright

But if y'all want her really bad, just gimme some ideas on what to put for her section, and I'll add her in

Let's see.. could I request Miu, kaede, and Kokichi with a soft dom reader? And if you could, with female reader please! But if you can't do that, gn is fine:)

✫ featuring — kaede akamatsu, miu iruma, kokichi ouma.

✫ content — softdom!reader, readers gender just didn’t come up so gender neutral, sls!kaede, sub!miu, sub!kokichi, light brat taming, light bimbofication, mentions of painplay, light degradation, pet names (angel, pretty girl, sweetheart etc). let me know if i missed any <3

✫ — kaede.

soft dom on soft dom crime.

literally the spiderman meme of them both pointing at each other. that's you two. i broke you down to your bare essentials.

in all seriousness - what matters most to kaede is compromise and ensuring that each of you is happy and comfortable. so if you're comfier falling into a more dominating role, she'll be more than happy to acquiesce.

probably an ideal partner for a soft dom tbh. she's so good for you :(( very rarely bratty. and if she is, it's easy to fuck out of her.

dare i say... bimbofication kink.

she just !! kinda like being tenderly reduced to absolute putty !! can't even think or remember to breathe or blink without you gently reminding her !! she has so much trust in you of course.

not super into pain play - she probably doesn't have a very high tolerance for it, but she likes to be marked up a little.

will absolutely get adorably embarrassed if you can see them the next day, though.

doesn't necessarily beg unless you tell her to, but will always thank you, so it evens out.

makes the prettiest noises; she graduates from soft, pitchy gasps in the beginning to broken cries and half-sobs when she's worn out and sore and sweating.

honestly kinda likes being told what to do instead of taking on a leadership role for once.

if you compliment her hands or her fingers she'll turn to absolute mush. kiss them <3 hold them <3 suck on them <3 she's yours.

favourite name to be called is "my pretty girl" asjsjdndn.

✫ — miu.

you literally render her speechless.

whenever she says smth vulgar you just tilt your head and ask in a soft voice, "you wanna say that again, sweetheart?" and. yeah you literally broke her. her knees actually gave out.

now. now. you might think that because of the stuff miu says that she's a hard dom. but you'd be mistaken. i mean, do you see how she reacts when people degrade her?? who reacts by blushing and sweating when kokichi calls them a cum dumpster?

yeah she is a degradee.

she likes when you're mean, but oh my god she loves it when you mix praise with it. "my dumb little angel", "my filthy girl", "you're just my pretty little bimbo, huh?" ahhhhhsjsjs.

intentionally acts teasing and bratty just to rile you up. she will test the soft in your soft dom. bends down so you can see up her skirt, leans over so her chest is in your face, flirts with everybody right in front of you...

whew.

you have your work cut out for you, for sure. but in the end, you're the only one who can reduce her to such a red-face sobbing mess <3

will beg you to go rougher on her. "more! gimme more, i can take it!" muffling a cry into your shoulder. "y-you're tryna punish me, right? s-so fuckin' do it already..."

your baby is so loud. she has absolutely no control over her voice. at first, you thought she was exaggerating to rile you up but god she's just so sensitive that every touch has her reeling. you're just gonna have to shove your fingers in her mouth to quiet her down, what a shame :((

can take a fair bit of pain. goes absolutely feral if you leave hickeys on her neck and bruises on her thighs. she adores looking absolutely wrecked afterwards - makeup running down her face, sweating, red-face, tear tracks cracking on her cheeks, bruises blooming under the skin of her throat.

for like... fifteen seconds after, she gets uncharacteristically shy. this is the one and only time she will thank you, before snapping out of her daze and returning to the miu we all hate love.

✫ — kokichi.

you uh. you sure about the soft part there?

this man is infuriating. and he knows it, too.

testing your patience is a full-time job and baby, he's committed.

real talk. i know what you're probably thinking - that kokichi is also a hard dom. in my humble opinion, no, wrong, incorrect. kokichi is a brat.

and maybe the worst case you've ever seen, too. this boy fights you on absolutely everything. he challenges everything you say. he argues semantics with you. nothing is off-limits.

you must have the patience of a saint. it might actually genuinely infuriate him at times, the fact that he can't get you to crack. sometimes he just wants you to snap and go fucking feral on him.

but most of the time... he likes you as you.

it's nice. he's really unsure about it at first, actually, but this feeling of being taken care of is something he begins to get used to. a lot of the time during the act, you'll catch him with this soft, dazed look on his face, like he's in the middle of a dream.

rarely though. and then he annoys you so bad you forget it in like a minute rip.

king of "oh? make me," and similar taunts. "whatcha gonna do about it?" "get over here and make me why don't you?" boy if you don't—

it's genuinely fascinating watching his composure break down in front of you. it starts out so small, a stray gasp or his fingers tightening in the sheets, but if you keep at it slowly and patiently pretty soon he's whimpering and hissing through his teeth, telling you through clenched teeth to get on with it already.

tries to order you around, but we're moving at your pace. he'll call you plenty of names to try and light a fire under you. one day you'll have to give in <3

the ultimate goal of any session is to get him pleading. it can be done, if you're patient. it's for sure a sight - hands twisting the sheets until his knuckles are white, cheeks filmed with red, tears beading at his lashline and hair stuck to his forehead. "please," he'll gasp all pretty. "fuck- you- nngh, please, get on with it already!"

you gotta oblige <3

10/10 would brat tame again.

Non-writing activities that actually help your writing

To get better at writing, you have to write. Yes… But what about the times when you genuinely don’t feel like it?

First of all, it’s alright! It’s not the end of the world! You’re not a failed writer if you have a down day. But if you really feel like doing something that pushes your writing along, but isn’t actually writing, here are some things you can do! →

📚 Planning out your next chapter When in doubt, plot it out. Sometimes you might simply be stuck because you don’t have a clear path forward. A simple outline of all the major beats in your next chapter can really put things into perspective.

📚 Writing an impromptu scene Every writer goes off and fantasizes about a scene in their novel that isn’t actually part of the plan. Treat it as if it was a fanfic of your own novel and give it a shot! Writing it as fanfiction takes the pressure off, and might just get your creative juices flowing again.

📚Reading a similar book for research This is a  super helpful and fun way of doing research for your book. Dig out similar books in the genre and get reading. A great way to get book recommendations is to speak to some bookish people and tell them a little bit about the story you’re writing. Often, they can have great recommendations of a similar book vibe that could help you along.

📚 Actually research For whatever type of book you’re writing, you’re going to have to do some research. Whether it’s describing architecture in a fantasy world, or making sure your facts are correct in a historical setting, research is a crucial part of writing. Perhaps if your creative side of the brain isn’t feeling up to it right now, your logical one might be of us and help you gather some facts to make your writing more authentic.

📚 Edit or rewrite previous chapters If you have the need to work on your project, but can't bring yourself to write some more, work with what’s already there. It’s inevitable that some of the chapters you wrote, you aren’t entirely happy with. This might be the time to try something new - open that chapter side by side with a fresh document and rewrite it by changing one integral part of it.

📚 Think on it Yes, we all fantasize about our projects and our characters. But how often do you actually stop and truly think about your story as a whole? How often do you try to figure out that plothole before saying you’ll leave it for later? It might help to meditate for a bit, clear your head of distracting thoughts and focus on the problem in your writing that you need to solve.
