If Anyone Asks Me What I’m Writing, I Will Say Nothing. But In A Conversation That I Can Use To Talk

Having multiple wips be like:

Morning: Oh, that’s a good idea for wip 1!

midday: wait, I should work on wip 2’s plot, I have ideas

afternoon: *thinking about random scenarios for wip 3*

evening: What wip is this for again? Meh, I’ll figure it out

My story’s antagonist: I’m not just a bitch…

I’m a bitch with a backstory

“I hate Valentine’s Day!”

“I don’t have a partner to share it with”

Shut. Up.

Valentine’s Day isn’t all about romance, it’s about relationships, platonic, romantic, familial, friends, any of them.

in school we gave everyone candy, or at least a card. It was fun, we enjoyed it. We were kids who could skip part of our classes to give our classmates crack for kids (sugar). It’s annoying how people think Valentine’s Day is only romance, because it’s not.

happy (early) Valentine’s Day

EPIC: The Musical is a fucking bomb. Seriously, it’s good

but also, listening to it all the way through is not helpful in trying to remember the songs, especially when the brain switches up the lyrics

My brain went: “Let’s see where you’ve been! When does a man become a meteor?” And I’m like “No, it doesn’t work that way.” And the visual in my head is Mr. Jalapeño shoving MICO then the cast rowing during the livestream of the cast listening to it

“Start writing”

Hah, no.

“Why not?”

I will, absolutely will against my will, revise and edit as I write, so I write the total of multiple chapters but it ends up being only one and half chapters. I fucking hate it

Me, in reference to a D&D character: He’s just a little guy!

Normal Person: That “little guy” could easily kill you. He’s not even that short

Me: Leave me and my little depressed tiefling alone!

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
