WAKE UP BESTIES HOW ARE WE FEELING?
Is it even a trip to London if you don't take a picture of the Blackfriars Bridge sign?
Ok so! I’ve come for some advice on writing- how do people actually follow through with writing?
Like, I have plenty of ideas for my characters that I really wanna write, but it’s hard to put stuff into words. Sometimes I just get overwhelmed at the thought of trying to write a story and end up not writing it at all.
Does anyone have any tips and/or advice for writing stories in general? Or at least on how to not get overwhelmed by writing?
Writing is a muscle and the best way to make a muscle grow is exercise. If ur anything like me, a few years of just clickety-clacking and you'll have enough of a habit that, even if you do feel intimidated, you can still get words down. Whether you want to practice on your beloved OCs or come up with new ones is up to you.
That's my best answer, but I have a few more miscellaneous things:
Sometimes intimidation comes because you hang onto the idea that the idea is really good and if you do a bad job executing it it'll... idk, be a shame? Ruin the idea? Either way, you can confidently banish the thought, because you can do literally as many drafts as you have patience for. Didn't like it? No loss, just stash the draft in a file somewhere and give yourself a do-over.
If the hang-up is worrying that the actual image in your mind will change, yeah, it probably will. That's something you have to accept and embrace if you hope to write anything at all. If things go well, the new characters & stories can be made better than the originals.
Also, sometimes it's easy to get caught up in the logistics of it. Frankly I do my best writing when I can forget there's a keyboard in front of me and just G O. It's really hard to describe, but I've heard it said as like... "immerse yourself in the scene, write like you're really there," etc. Just, doing your best to not think about the fact that you've use the word "just" eight times in a paragraph.
Anyway that's just a few ideas. If my followers have more feel free to chime in!
To build on this:
writing is a skill! (Actually it's a bunch of skills in a trenchcoat.) If you haven't written much, it's going to be relatively hard at first, but after a few days/weeks/months, it'll get easier.
Start small! When I first started writing, most of what I did were one- or two-page short stories. Write out a moment of your story that you can imagine vividly and consider it done for now. As you practice more, you'll get more comfortable writing stuff that's longer, but you don't have to start with that.
Have patience with yourself! As long as you've gotten something written down, you can always come back to it later.
fucking hate thar when you go to uni you have to actually do and turn in work like some kind of seventh grader. you should be able to just listen to the lecture & vibe
I think we underestimate Alastair's habit to read a book when he's in an awkward situation. Like this man gets it. This book gonna tell you all its secrets no need to make eye contact.
Going thru it rn
When you leave your writing in the middle of a sentence, come back to it and you're like "Where the FUCK was I going with this?"
writers be like ‘i want to write’ but then spend their entire day on tumblr doing nothing

I'm not sure I can express this sentiment strongly enough, but I'm going to try via the medium of large bolded text.
Write what the fuck you want.
Write what makes you happy. Write what makes your soul sing. Write what fucks you up and makes you cry. Write what comforts you. Write what distracts you. Write what you want to read. Write what you want to watch.
Write what you want to dream about tonight.
Write what you can't get enough of. Write what you're completely obsessed with. Write what wakes you up at 4am and drags you out of bed because you can't stop thinking about what your characters are going to do next.
Write what turns you on, if that's your vibe. Write characters you're in love with and characters who inspire you and characters you want to be friends with and characters you fucking hate but oh my god they're so much fun.
Write about things you would sell your soul to do in real life and things you would never do in real life. Write about things that are happening right now and things that happened a thousand years ago and things that might happen in the future and things you wish could happen.
Write to get a publishing deal or to sell your books yourself or not to sell your books at all. Write for your friends or for strangers or for the people who reblog your posts on Tumblr and send you songs that remind them of your characters.
Write for yourself.
Fuck any system that tells you there's only one right way to create or one valid way to share your writing. Your story, the way you tell it, has so much value. Make people smile or piss people off or do both of those things because art is divisive and fascinating and beautiful.
Start writing. Keep writing. And write what the fuck you want.

“his body was never found” either means there is no grave for oliver to mourn or that bastard james is alive somewhere. and me being me, am choosing to believe that they reunite on the beach and kiss.
When Oscar Wilde wrote “There seemed to be something tragic in a friendship so coloured by romance.” He meant James and Oliver friendship/relationship, I mean when Oliver saw those bruise marks on James he was like 'I wanted to give Richard ten bruises for every one he’d put on James, and when James showed up at his house unannounced he called Meredith to say 'I had no idea he was coming, but I can’t just leave him here. I don’t think New York is going to happen' and when James broke his nose, the first thing Oliver said was 'I want to forgive you' and threw a harmless paperback book at his knee to get even, and when James was crazy drunk and reciting Shakespeare in madness, Oliver said reassuringly 'You can tell me. Even if it’s bad, even if it’s really bad. We’ll find a way to fix it', and when James confessed to killing Richard, Oliver only comforted him by saying '“It’s okay," ... "It'll be okay" ' and when Colborne came to arrest James, Oliver took the blame and went to jail, and when James asked 'Why?' Oliver answered 'You know why'.
His slutty looks and abandonment issues have captivated me
