L'angoscia che io possa gridare e che si raduni gente dinanzi alla porta e che alla fine l'abbattano, l'angoscia che io possa tradirmi e dire tutto ciò che temo, e l'angoscia che io non riesca a dire nulla, poichè tutto è indicibile, e le altre angoscie... le angoscie.  Ho pregato per avere la mia infanzia, ed essa è tornata, e sento che è ancor sempre dura come un tempo e che non è servito a nulla invecchiare.

I Quaderni di Malte Laurids Brigge, Rainer Maria Rilke.

Send me an ask about writing

5.       Where do you find your motivation?

I pull from as many places as I can. I make character or pairing specific playlists on spotify, I bounce ideas off friends, I inject every comment and kudos directly in to my blood stream because it’s free dopamine. I find fics and shows and stories that inspire me, and imagine writing something that can inspire someone else in a similar way. The most fun thing about having adhd is that the MOMENT I finally have a hyper-fixation again, motivation comes a little easier. The problem is that I can’t pick and choose what to focus on, or how hard. It also helps that writing is pretty much the one through-line in my life so far as something I’ve actually REALLY wanted to do

17.   If there’s one thing you could tell your readers, what would it be?

I second guess my writing every second of every day. I went 4 years without writing because I thought I had nothing to say, no story to tell. But there’s something to be said about faking confidence. I will wake up every morning of every day and tell myself I AM a writer. I have worlds to build, lives to weave, everything. I’m a sucker for happy endings. Even if I like putting characters through some pain to get there. Stick with me and push me to get there, and I’ll bring you along for the ride. Ok?

23.   Most memorable review/comment on a fic?

Probably the most recent, on one of my fics:

I hate that you can’t leave kudos on every chapter because this fic totally deserves all the kudos. Also, shadow weaver being a blood bender is SO COOL and scary but mainly really cool 

Like, every time someone leaves a kudos means the world to me. Every time someone comments means even more. This person has commented multiple times, and it makes me so fucking happy every time. Every time I recognize someone that has commented multiple times, my heart buzzes. Picking out details from what I wrote? Fills my heart more. Just every faucet of a comment like this means the world to me, and gives me hope that I might be able to publish my book, after all.
