help! I can see the scenes so clearly and with frightening detail in my mind's eye but I cannot make myself actually write
#๐๐๐ this HAUNTS me abt fic like. I have very specific ways I imagine scenes. intricately detailed as if they were movie sets in my brain#down to mundane drug store wall colors like my brain mocks it all up. ALL OF IT. no detail left unimagined#and the thing is. other cannot see this! they cannot see the scene I have pictured no matter how much I try to describe it#every fic would be longer than moby dฤฑck. there are 5 other ppl in the diner rn. one is smoking. the waitress has a stain on her apron.#the walls are baby blue. the shades on the windows are all half pulled. the sunset is spectacular and happening at 6:33 pm#it's 60ยฐ and the woman walking down the street in the background is wearing jeans and jade green sweater LIKE#I could never impart all of this to an audience#let's not even TALK abt more small intimate scenes where it's just like. the blorbos. and it's a quiet moment#I want to describe the lighting and the way I can imagine the shadows falling and how their hair looks in the light and what they're wearing#and what the whole room looks like I can see it! I know what color the walls are the floor what kind of couch or table and it's like#no one else can see all this! they might imagine their own but they can't see *this* and I just want someone to see *this*#there's a lot going on up here *taps temple*#erin explains it all
