It hurts, but your fic will be so much better for it. As always I look forward to reading it.
Thank you kindly!! T__T I always appreciate your moral support, it means a lot. Yet another obstacle to add to the delays crylaughs.

Good on you! Short hair in this weather FTW!
LOL thank you!! I’m still getting used to this hairstyle haha, but I’m enjoying it :D (Sorry for the delayed reply btw!)

I haven’t read your fic yet, what with life and all going on. I do hope to read it at some point though and to leave you feedback :) it sucks that you aren’t getting the responses you’re after. Just take solace in the feedback you are getting I guess. People do enjoy and appreciate your work. Try not to let it get you down. Our brains can get too hooked on the dopamine rush of getting likes on social media.
Oh yes definitely, I’m always immeasurably grateful for what I have been getting!! 👍👍 At the end of the day I know that I’m a relatively tiny blog with not a lot of followers so any kind of response I get to my fics and gifsets, every kudos/comment/note/like/reblog, is a huge deal (and a blessing!) to me. I always end up remembering names too, so when I see anyone who’s ever commented on a fic before or is a repeat reblogger of my gifsets I’m like HAY IT’S U :D
It is unfortunate to go mostly unnoticed but no worries, I do still have my chin up and I’m still working on these things because I do enjoy doing them. Thanks for the words of encouragement!! And aww it’s sweet that you want to read my fic but seriously, no pressure even if you don’t. It’s a 32k monster and I get that a lot of people don’t have time for that lol. I hope everything with you is going well and that RL sorts itself out for you *__*

Congrats, Harmony! :D
Thank youuu!! I’m relieved to finally be done with such a huge project haha u__u

Well I think it’s great that you know where the issue lies. If it’s flow you might have to consider moving the scene somewhere else, which can be a big nightmare. But be open to all sorts of solutions. Something might actually fit well. As for my own writing… That has taken a massive step backwards. Life has come rushing at me, in the best and most exhausting way imaginable. But I do hope to get back to it. Writing brings me sanity and tranquillity.
Yep yep! Did a lot of experimenting with moving the scene around already haha. It’s all good, I think I maaaaay have got this scene down finally (after more than a month of struggling), I just have to actually finish writing it and then polish it up and see how it looks after that. For some reason my brain’s really bogged down today though, which is why I wrote the original post of wanting to take a break hehe XD maybe watching a few movies over the weekend will help. Haven’t done that in a while.
Aww no! Well the “best” part of your comment is promising at least. But I hope your writing will take off again soon! It is a very therapeutic thing to do, I agree. <3
@creamypudding replied to your post: Self-care is not touching your fic at all when the...
Maybe go over the scene strategically. What’s the point of it? Aim and outcome. Look at what you are most unhappy about. Dialogue? Setting? Ambiance? Jot down the scenes main purpose and then if it meets all it needs to and you’re still unhappy maybe it’s time to drop the perfectionism. A good artist knows when to call it quits. They stop overworking the medium. But yeah. Get some space from it first.
Nah, what I’m most unsatisfied with is actually none of those. It’s the flow.
And it’s not really a case of perfectionism where I keep “fixing” a scene that hasn’t changed in order to polish it up, or make it nicer etc - the scene itself has changed at least 4-5 times. As in literally what happens in it. The way my plot’s structured is a little broken with a lot of time jumps (this is stylistically deliberate) so getting the right flow is a bit of a challenge. Everything else turned out fine; it’s just this one scene (that I’d left for last because I knew it’d be the hardest).
Also, I suppose this is where we may have to agree to disagree but also with regard to your perfectionism comment, I can’t post something I’m not 500% happy with. I know other writers are more chill about this sort of thing, and I respect that, but I only want to post things that look spotless to me and that I’m absolutely proud of without any regret. So you do you! I want to keep working on this fic until I’m happy with it - I may complain and moan and groan about how long it’s taking, but I enjoy writing this fic. I wouldn’t be doing this if it felt like a chore, and I’m almost done, anyway. Thank you very kindly for your input, though; hope writing is going well for you *__*b

Oh that's great news. Now the fic is less of a beast when you just have one thing to focus on. Still looking forward to reading it whenever you finish it :)
Thanks a lot! I’ll keep on powering through with it!
Haha honestly, the last scene is gonna be a bitch because as I said, I feel like it’ll be difficult to write AND it’s also gonna be hella long - but hopefully it won’t take forever for me to get through it!

I have been sleeping in past 7am every day, playing video games with friends, went up the mountains for a quick hike and had dinner with family. Going to the city today for yum cha with friends. Long weekends are awesome. Hope yours is good too Harmony :)
Oh wow! I’ve actually barely been sleeping this long weekend, so sleeping in sounds amazing. And your weekend in general sounds so relaxed haha I’ve been going to one event after another, my schedule’s been packed so I’m pretty exhausted. It has been good though, thanks for asking!! *__*
