being a writer is fun because you can spend up to thirty minutes rewriting the same two sentences

[tokkibean]

i do not “delete sentences” when they start “hindering the plot” i COPY PASTE THEM into a SEPARATE DOC made just for keeping all my USELESS LINES that i will also NEVER USE so therefore i should JUST DELETE THEM but i DONT because id FEEL BAD if i did

You don't actually have to kill your darlings. You can just put them in the oubliette #myoubliette

the really annoying thing is that even when you're making something with your dick it still takes effort. like this thing is going to be soooo good and appealing to my personal tastes. once this stupid motherfucker finishes it

The fastest way to accomplish The Project is to cease being afraid of The Project. The Project cannot maim you. The Project cannot kill you. The Project is more afraid of you than you are of it. It is okay if The Project turns out differently from how it was in your head, and it is okay if it has flaws. You are capable of engaging with The Project.

writing a tiny bit laying down hard decisions finally and its nauseating lol

[bookwyrminspiration]

there's a common belief that artists know how to make art. this is untrue. i've yet to meet a single artist who has any idea what they're doing

[wintersongstress]

wilf (wip i’d like to finish)

[caprart1]

i DO believe that a good writer can make mischaracterization work. oh there's a character who doesn't normally cry? figure it out!! disect the character. make the situation cryable for them. make that character cry ugly tears even if it goes against their very nature. YOU CAN MAKE IT WORK!!!

[amyrosedefensesquad]

A great piece of advice I've seen is "Don't fixate about what the character would never do. Think about the circumstances that would drive them to do this, even if they wouldn't normally."

[ficsinhistory]

Best advice ever!

I just want to be able to ignore my needs and focus on drawing for a long time every once in a while

[skerjblarg]

finally able to make some decisions i was afraid to make about the story so once my arm isn't hanging on by a thread its over for me
