Writeblr Introduction!

hello hello! i thought it was about time i introduce myself lol! i'm still rather new-ish to tumblr, and even though i've been on here for a couple months, i'm still learning what's going on and how to do the things (but i can say i think i've finally got the hang of it! sort of!)

i started this blog to join a writing community: specifically to get inspiration, tips, as well as possibly share my own work.

also!! i would love to make some writer firends!

About the Writer

i'm betty (she/her)! i'm a writer currently trying to finish my third novel. as of right now, i'm majoring in creative writing and hoping to hone my skill some more (especially with my current WIP).

my favorite genres are fantasy and romance but have also become interested in delving into mystery a bit! my favorite tropes are enemies to lovers (like, the whole shebang), gumpy x sunshine, and found family. my favorite book series is the lunar chronicles by marissa meyer (the hunger games is a close second)! i really love pride and prejudice (2005), howl's moving castle (and a couple other ghibli movies, but i think this one is just my favorite), tangled, and a few others i'm blanking on.

outside of writing and reading, i enjoy art (drawing and painting and analyzing), listening to music (and finding new stuff), and playing video games (mostly minecraft and the sims lol, though i'm trying to branch out just a little) but a lot of my time is spent daydreaming about my current wips (and following the whims and demands of my cat)! :D

About My Writing

i've been writing on and off since i was a child, but when i was about 13 or 14 i finished my first novel, sparking a deeper love for the craft! i like using my favorite tropes in my writing and i typically only really write fantasy/romance, but only recently have i delved deep into fantasy, before it was surface level and almost nonexistent in my work.

currently, i'm working on my second fantasy novel with a pinterest board i hold dear to my heart like it’s my own little dragon’s hoard, lol.

these longer projects aren't my only writing endeavors though! i also enjoy writing poetry and short stories, some of which i hope to share!

where else can you find me?

can't promise that i'll post much elsewhere, but if you're curious—!

instagram

tiktok

twitter

youtube (don't think i'll post much here but who knows lol)

feel free to send me asks about my interests, my projects, really anything except mathematical equations! and along with meeting other writers, i'd also be totally down to beta your works sometime and also just gush about WIPs in general!

no because literally what am i waiting for? why am i hindering my own dreams?

How it feels to finally string 5 coherent sentences together after a writing block

[nondelphic]

the feminine urge to abandon the novel and start a newer, hotter, less emotionally demanding novel

[bethodical]

fighting for my life trying not to start every sentence with she or her 😭😭

[nondelphic]

i need my novel to understand that i am just a girl

[nondelphic]

i love making playlists for my book. one day i may even write the book.

[bethodical]

one day, twin 🤞😽

[bethodical]

i’ve abandoned my serious wips in favor of the purposefully awful project that brings me joy 😜

[luxfuxxvii]

not now kitten, mommy needs to get up off her ass and overcome her fear of writing poorly because it's better than not writing at all.

the good news: i’ve been getting some writing done!

the bad news: i’ve been exclusively working on my side piece…

[scherrauthor-deactivated2026050]

What do you do when you feel like everything you write sucks?? :(

[bethodical]

keep writing, sweetie! it’s hard, but we’ve gotta keep on trucking!

[torchwood-99]

"I love you but you're doing wrong in a way I cannot condone" and "I hate you but you're being wronged in a way I cannot stomach" are top tier and I need more of them.

@ my father

[pidge-the-pigeon]

I have been infected by the doubting my writing skills disease…

Hopefully I will recover soon

[solarsthoughts]

my toxic trait is thinking starting a new writing project will magically help me finish my current wips because it will cure my writer’s block when in fact all it does is add more wips to my plate which i can’t finish which then means i have to start a new project again… and the cycle repeats.

Get yourself a document where you note down all the random story ideas you get but can’t start right now. Chances are your brain will be satisfied that you’ve acknowledged them rather than keeping them in your head, and you’ll have a better shot at returning your focus to your current project

[bethodical]

thank you notes app 🙏🙏

[haridraws]

my biggest creative passion in life is ‘the project I’m not supposed to be working on right now’

[haridraws]

this one resonated I see
