Look look, I’m at 20k now. I’m three chapters in. These are so long. Much too long. All the information is incredibly important though. You have to understand everything that happens is necessary. Should this chapter be 10k? Probably not, but It’s actually going to be longer because I’m not done yet. Help me. I want to post this by hopefully Wednesday. I just churned out like 6k. AHHHHH.
#house of the rising suns#house of the rising suns oneluckygoose#the marauders#marauders#marauders era#writing#writeblr#my fic#someone please help me#ITS ALL NECESSARY#I NEED ALL 20k OF THESE WORDS#ACTUALLY IS 20.3k#i might be losing it#im ok with that though

today is one of those days where i'm really grumpy at writing. like, for reals?? i'm wasting my one wild and precious life trying and failing to do THIS dumb activity for NO DISCERNIBLE REASON???
#i cannot jumpstart this attempted novel project for the life of me#(i haven't shared it with anyone at all and maybe it's that. no one knows anything about it but me and it's 20k+ and i'm going mad)#i don't think i have it in me to write a novel the way i did in pre-pandemic reality#my brain is just GONE in terms of having the ability to do sustained focus work#blahhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!#okay i just needed to vent. thanks y'all!!!#now i'm going to grant myself permission to stop failing at a word doc and go do something else like a person#i tried okay. i tried. sort of. i wrote maybe like half a page today. blahhhhhhhh!!!!!!#dollsome's deep thoughts#i hate u writing ............. we r enemies this day ....... grrrrrrrr ............ 😡😡😡

i nearly anon'd the thorki non-con fic out of SHAME but in two weeks it's become my third most clicked-on fic of the year, behind only a multichapter fic and a bit of angsty sifki porn lololol
#this is about 560 hits btw which i know is not much for bigger fandoms and it's just that i tend to be in some weird niche but gosh!#i'd written thorki before but it wasn't e-rated so if the non-con tag really did work against it then wow no wonder ppl write this pairing!#you ever been to reddit where someone posts about how their latest fic only got 20k hits in a week and you're like “WTF”?#and it turns out they're in some hugely popular fandom and that's the least read fic for that pairing on the entire site by a mile.#that's like glimpsing a parallel universe. what a strange place. why would any fic ever have more than 1000 hits omg!#and 1000 would be for if you wrote something Surprisingly Popular. like e-rated thorki non-con apparently is.#meanwhile 'cockroboros' may only have 35 hits but every one of those 35 people agrees that i was right to write that thing!!#and me and the other 86 people who wanted to see missy interact with jamie moriarty are besties now <3#SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I TURN THE NUMBERS BACK ON OH NOOOOOO THIS WAY LIES MADNESS!!!#the sifki one had a bump recently which i must assume came from one of those 'recced it in a discord but never said a word' incidents.#those are increasingly common and i hope i am not alone in finding them ever so slightly creepy#if you're going to look at me you need to at least pat me on the head to cancel out the anxiety of that damn it!#*flashes back to when i hid that one ten'n'donna fic because nobody would tell me where all the readers were coming from*#fic related#anyway i think it's important to mention i wrote thorki non-con fic in case anyone following me thinks i am Unproblematic in some way.

i am very normal about @alarainai's writing. the most normal. no one is as normal as me about his writing
#alarainai i love you#alarainai i dooo#when we're apart#my heart beats only for youuuu#Reading your fics at night is always a dumb idea cause afterwards i just sit here#Wide awake#Having all of the jegulus thoughts#Needing to srop myself from rereading all your fics#And also from getting up to write 20k words of jegulus fic myself right this very second#It just itches very specific parts of my brain and all of them are correct#I adore your writing so much#*

Remember when I posted 200k of my writing lol
#in all fairness I've written just as much this year#but I've caught the everything I write is bad disease#so nothing gets posted what a surprise#all the 5k or 10k fics that are floating around#that one au that's almost 20k words#I NEED to get a grip#gecko rants#mine

I rewrote my thesis and it's under 120k words bay-beeeeeeeee!!!!!!! Let's goooooo!!!!!!
#rose and rambles#prosie's writing adventures#sorry all i talk about these days are word counts but that's been my current focus#so when i wrote my thesis. Pre-Writing Shift. it was 100K and i added 20K in revisions in an attempt to flesh it out#(120K is MAX word count for fantasy if you're a debut author and it's less for YA)#but after i developed my writing more the thesis just wasn't up to par and the narrative needed work anyway so ive been#very slowly working on how to adjust and make it better between other projects#and finally i got to the point i could start rewriting again but i was constantly getting stuck because of length concerns/ect.#and the process has been slow and sluggish BUT FINALLY ITS DONE#AND THE REWRITE IS 114K#OBS STILL NEED TO REVISE AND FIND READERS SO ITS SUBJECT TO CHANGE#AND IM PUSHING IT BECAUSE IT'S STILL TECHNICALLY LONG#BUT IT'S ACCEPTABLE LONG I THINK AND A MUCH TIGHTER NARRATIVE AT THAT#HOUGH

HA I'm 100% not making this camp nanowrimo goal
#I have written: 800 words so far wITH THE GOAL TO WRITE 10K?? HAHHAA#what's funny is I wrote 10k in February#about 20k in Jan#couple thousand in Dec#50k in nov#SO TELL ME WHY I'M DISAPPOINTED BY THE IDEA OF NOT HITTING THIS GOAL#listen... not making the goal doesn't make me feel sad because I'm not making the goal#makes me feel sad because idk! I love writing! I want to do that! I love living IN it#and for me living in it is soooo in the drafting process#and I feel like I've done a really... wonderful job at prioritizing writing & now I'm realizing I need to be#gentle with myself LOL#I'm moving this month after thinking I'd be moving in june#OBVIOUSLY I just finished my degree#I'll be moving into my own room (FIRST TIME EVER!! HAVING MY OWN ROOM!! A CONCEPT!!) when I get back home#lots of change haha#I think the mental strain of all of that has just made me tired#but it's not like I don't want to write ! I do! but I'm tired and that's what makes me sad#not being able to do the thing because I'm tired!#anyway I don't usually care this much about progress but I guess#since nano it's been nice to see the “progress” not because it's progress but because#to me it shows that I'm doing this thing I love very much#anyway proud of me for all I do!#I actually think this is why write every day works better for me than word count goals#(THE HORRORS THAT I ACTUALLY FOLLOW THIS ADVICE NOW HAHAHA)#but I liked that better cuz it was like... oh if I literally write ONE word I hit that goal LMAO#think I'll pivot my goal to that and whatever I write I write!#also writing frequently is kind of a must for me considering my short term memory is just awful#I find I get confused and flustered and overwhelmed when I don't write for a couple days#but yeah one word a day??? i can do that!

one thing I thought was missing from canon sk8 was the mine being haunted apparently. so we are bringing that into burnished house for absolutely no fucking reason
#sk8 the infinity#burnished house#(I am jokeing there is. in fact. a reason)#(you will not learn this until the divorce comes up)#(well the preliminary reason is I fucking love ghost stories and want to put them in everything)#(and that reki is afraid of scary things which makes him my favourite kind of victim. younger sibling coded for that only)#Im actually having a lot of fun alternating povs between reki and langa bc Ive like. accidentally grounded langa's in#very clear and present bodily sensations. straight up uncomplicated observations about materials in the world around him#while reki's gets all the hyperboles and pretty poetic stuff. I enjoy the idea of him being good at storytelling#ESPECIALLY bc him taking words to heart including scary stories. big deal to me ok?#love to write langa and going from things that clearly are present right there in the scene to the most insane thoughts a man can have#and then write reki and jump wildly between dork ass energetic shounen character speech and romanticizing the fuck out of concrete#weird thing to say after writing three fics of like 20K+ words in total about them granted lmao#but like. listen. I feel like burnished house is me going apeshit so far. this is truly my time to be the worst ever#same approach as I took with [REDACTED]. oh you think this is bad? just wait#I have already added TWO old people ghosts into this one. be in awe of my power#well. be in awe of it when I finish this chapter... I need to sleep rn dksdfhdskj#have a good nite lads. I cant wait to get to that one spot in this chapter where I go yess... YESS!!!! HAHAHA YESSSS#wish u the same for ur art endeavour. if ur art endeavour doesnt have something like that u should add it. my message to da world

The urge to learn how to draw injuries and blood and bruises
#i don't like gore but i DO think hickey are hot. :)#<- just read a few fics of the latest Sopping Wet Little Guy getting hurt and liking it#listen i am never going to be into burnplay and i think cigarettes smell bad even if they look cool#but man was that fic good and hot. insane#also got me shipping one guy i barely know and two others i don't know at all#fandom blind truly#i'm so down with them in that specific 5-fic 20k-word series#so. i need to learn how to draw hickeys and bruises and blood and some such.#not organs though i don't like organs#wow i have a ramble tag now

im at almost 7.1k words in my 12jack sequel
#and i still need to write like half of it at least#this fic is truly the when you give a mouse a cookie thing of all time because originally i wanted to write LITERALLY one thing#(the doctor doing a specific thing to jack sort of by accident)#but i needed to write additional backstory to make them fucked up enough to do that AND a situation to gET them to do that.#and then another situation to get them to THAT situation and THEN yet ANOTHER situation to get them to THAT situation#and then for the 'yet another situation' in order to make it more cohesive i had to actually TALK about the backstory which i was not going#to do as much originally. and THEN at that point it was like well okay i have to add [another character] to this in order to explain THAT s#THAT added another scene. and then i realized again for the 'yet another situation' i would need to add actually an entire adventure#and anyway now im here and its gonna be at minimum 15-20k words#has anyone noticed my estimations of final wordcount keep going up lol. bc i have.#ari opinion hour

Unsure if writing an epilogue ahead of time means I’m on track to absolutely scramble for words in order to get to 50,000 or not
#all the stuff i just completely glossed over definitely does but in my defense#i wanted to avoid doing research#a lot will need to be fleshed out later#like a lot#maureen does nanowrimo 23#i have less than 20k words to write now so maybe i’ll be fine#it’s a first draft and i don’t have an outline#i could introduce vampires at any time if i get worried i won’t reach 50k#the vampires would not fit in but that’s not the point

my brain needs a break from working on three different collab pieces so i decided to pick back up my hellhounds kiribaku fic but i’m horrible with titles so help me decide
a little context on the fic - it is set in a world where chthonic creatures roam freely on earth and your job is to rescue the ones used in illegal activities which is how you meet two hellhounds but first you must earn their trust before you can save them after years of mistreatment
#kai.rambles#this fic has been in my drafts for so long that i need it out#im planing on just releasing a first solid part that i have and depending on how that goes then ill post another part with smut and all#since this first part is just focusing on the background story - world building - and how we met#it’s 4.5k but if we count all the things ive written for it to build the next part#plusss a side story i would like to add to it in the future then it’s almost 20k#i just need a little refresher since ive been working on merman bkg fic for a while plus figuring out how i want the mythology fic to-#turn out anddd i have the idea for the zombie au fic but im having trouble searching for the right words i want#so working on an old fic might help me clear my mind a little better#idk let me know what you guys think#im leaning more towards good omens since hellhounds are considered bad omens but we’ll see#also no promises that ill pick the one that wins :)

Honestly. OK. It's been some weeks since I did any writing. And I SHOULD push to finish ladue chapter 3. And i will. Eventually. BUT
My brain keeps scrabbling towards trigun, & I know it's inevitable I'm gonna write smth for it, but I still don't know what to write bc Realistically I'm still in the digestion phase. I'm not the type who will write while in the middle of absorbing a thing. I will write only after I have reasonably completed the thing, bc I would DIE if I got any details wrong for the thing
So yes I watched all of tristamp, but im only 20 ish chapters into trimax, so I'm not gonna be writing anything until after I finish that manga. Which you'd THINK would be good incentive for me to push to read the manga. But get this. Wolfwood Fanfic Good.
Also anytime I start reading I can't stop & I have literally given myself headaches doing this reading all of original trigun manga in one go And then 2 nights ago reading chapters 4 through 20 of tristamp in one go. Yes I read a few more last night and didn't get the Brain Grip, but I can tell shit's about to go down HARD & that's what got me getting only 4 hours of sleep the night before last bc i could not stop READING
I have to be cautious. Hyperfixations are a dangerous thing if you don't have the time to commit to them.
.... and I still really wanna write vashwood fanfic 😭
#speculation nation#y'all know me im allergic to writing anything short#i dont wanna start anything too Truly wrong bc i do NOT need another 500k+ fanfic in the works#especially when i still havent finished the last one#(discacc my baby im so sorry im neglecting you 😭 blame the brain pls)#still tho it's doubtful id be able to write anything shorter than like 20k. at the absolute minimum#(side-eyes ladue chapter 3 WIP which is 18k words and not done)#yes i have the ideas for vashwood smut stuff but i dont wanna have it be Just the smut ykno#my brand is heart wrenching angst anyways. the smut would just be a conduit for that#in any case im still building my perceptions of their characters. i cant start writing anything rn#im definitely leaning more towards trimax characterizations though. their Loser Ways have bewitched me#i like little shit wolfwood more than sleazy bastard wolfwood anyways. aka trimax vs tristamp wolfwood lol#DONT GET ME WRONG i love all wolfwood. but the urge to punch tristamp wolfwood has never gone away since i first saw him#gonna b interesting to write for wolfwood. i might end up leaning towards 'nico' as a nickname#considering one of my fav ocs is named nico lol. do what you know & all. & ive written Many words for my nico#then again it might be weird to have the mix up. it's the primary reason i havent started going by nico myself#just keeping it nicky i guess. but now here's wolfwood. nick nico nicholas. stealing my names there bub#my fate is to fixate on characters that share a diminutive of one of my names. yes one is my character no it was not on purpose#my name nicky does not come from my character nico. his full first name's nicostrato anyways#im just rambling now. tldr: I Wanna WRITE
