you've heard it before but i'm gonna say it again

IF YOU GET STUCK!! IN A SCENE!! DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!! end it where you are and don't touch it again until later. wait until you rewrite. go back when the inspiration hits. if you think about it too much, you're gonna drive yourself bananas (this is so targeted please ignore me). just move on!! go back later!! write the next scene or fifty and then worry about it. trust. or don't . but trust.

Always note down your story ideas

It doesn't matter if you're showering, waddle soaking wet to your phone and note it down (/j)

Neglect this and you'll forget them without even realizing

me when the writer kills off one of the main characters in the 30k fic im reading (i ignored the main character death + doomed by the narrative tags) so now i want to kms at 3am on a thursday morning (i will not recover for it was a piece of literature now forever ingrained to my brain)

the fic if anyone's interested (i know it's not 30k but this was not a one time thing so)

The way I lie on the couch and balance my laptop right now, shouldn’t be anatomically possible.

When you're working on your fic and your brain is already making a sequel and what the scenario is about.

in spirit I laugh along like haha stayed up way too late to finish this!! why are the best writing hours after 2am haha? but in reality I am in bed by 10 every night. I clock out of that doc by 5, maybe 6. my writing hours are quite reasonable and I have a very consistent sleep schedule
