Just write something

When you first sit down to write, the hardest task you will face is actually starting.

To get yourself over this first hurdle, don't overthink it. Just write something. Literally anything.

Words on the page is sometimes all you need to get started.

[lachimolalaorangee]

The first story will always be an important and precious part of a writer because it's the one which started it all .The first story which we hand pick from our imaginations and give them life no matter how " bad" or "cringey" it is.

But one thing which surprised me the most is that the first muse which I wanted to write as a story. Is actually the opposite of my actual personality ?!

Like as a reader I always prefered and loved reading books with happily ever afters and sunshine and happiness and romance of teenagers around my age.

BUT GUESS WHAT

My short story is about a 29 yr old single mother coping with the grief of his husband's death who was the only who has ever made her felt loved and try to raise her child single handedly

HELLO I've never read books or consume any sort of media with grief or melancholy SO I DIDN'T KNOW WHERE I GOT THIS IDEA FROM? THIS IS SO WEIRD TO ME

Have you ever felt the overwhelming urge to write something? But don't know what to write ? Because multiple emotions and thoughts are attacking you at once that you feel like 🤯 Or am I just weird?

Random prompt after seeing a butter knife lying around in my house

"One more step I'll stab you in the face " I said pointing my knife at him. His gaze dropped to the knife and my pathetic hold on it and smirked.

" Do you really think you can murder me with a butter knife , honey? " He asked stepping closer.

"Even if that was not a blunt knife you are not murdering anyone with that lousy form. "He looked at me with a teasing grin.

"One thing you forgot was that , a knife could be used in more ways than one " I said slamming the hilt of my knife at his temple before he could react.

"How I love it when men underestimate me " I said dusting my hands before walking away.

You are awesome. You are loved. You are a writer, no matter how little you've written and how much you've had to take out in editing.

Don't listen to the bad voices

[lachimolalaorangee]

I feel extremely unmotivated to write absolutely anything lately. Its not like I have been writing for years this is probably my first time even trying to start writing as a hobby but I feel so bad and frustrated that my writing is not doing justice to the idea in my head. So thank you so much for this❤️

My Review

As someone who knew nothing about African Tales and Mythology this was definitely a breath of fresh air for me! And the world building was easy to understand too.. And what I appreciate so much in this book is the characters. The author was not afraid to break the gender stereotypes. Especially the male character Malik was anxious , Extremely introverted and I saw much of myself in him I loved how she wrote about matters mental health and trauma in an extremely realistic way . As for Karina I loved how she was potrayed with so much swagger and boldness. And I really Loved the LGBT rep too ❤️

All in all the character building was good but however I felt the book was a bit... stretched out to be honest. And the character building between other characters was not good enough making it a bit boring

In conclusion I'll give it a solid ⭐⭐⭐ stars

Sorry for the long ass post lol 😭
