Me: I think my sentences are too long

While reading The Scarlet Letter: Oh shit...

[20xbetterthanu]

me: okay so this character is TRAUMATIZED

me: okay so this character was not accepted by their family

me: okay so this character doesn’t respond to sudden movements well

me: *writes out this super long and vivid traumatic abuse scene*

readers: this was so good!

me: *rereading* so that really happened...i actually felt like that...this is the exact same.. oh shit

I watched a tons of rom-coms  today AND IT’S HORRIBLE BECAUSE I REALLY WANT TO WRITE A SIMKUS FAKE MARRIAGE AU NOW.

This is ‘writer me’ @ ‘reader me’, who’s constantly whining about how realistic reconciliation scenes always take so long: do you know how much it fucking hurts to write that shit??? The agony of it all??? Because I can’t just read through it quickly and there the happy thing is, no, I have to write that, and that means that there are moments when things just won’t continue, because of formulation issues or writer’s block! So get yo shit together and keep reading!
