The thing is, writing is not just putting the Character in a situation. It's also putting myself, the writer, in a situation (having to write)

one person's "ugghh this trope is so overdone" is another person's "oooooohohohohohohohoho"

Floating face down in a blank word document file, while not physically possible, is nevertheless a tangible authorial state.

sexy lamp test but for kids in fiction. Antique Vase Test. if the kid can be replaced with an antique vase (or similar valuable object) then you’ve failed to depict a person with agency and have instead written a Stakes Raiser

Me: it's fine I'll fix this in the next draft

The small voice in your head that says: "I don't need to write down every small detail of this plot idea, I love it so much, I'll remember this."

That's the devil speaking.

[captainkirkk]

What they don't tell you about writing is that as you write, you discover scenes and entire plots that you hadn't accounted for that need to be written. So you can spend two hours writing and editing only to realise you're further away from the finish line than you thought you were when you started

[sodiumvaporss]

i do have to say that no matter how shitty any sort of media is or how shitty your own creations are. always remember
