okay friends, i have a serious question. We know Logan can smell other people, get familiar with their scents, and its canon he can smell their emotions/hormones. Do you think his biological kids can interpret smells in different ways? I am writing the second chapter of Take My Whiskey Neat and I was thinking about Amaris (my oc/ his daughter) having the ability to smell illness in others. I touched on it in the first chapter when she smelled the radiation on Senator Kelly. But what about smelling common illnesses or even cancer? As some animals have been known to detect it before people do.
Or is that too silly?

I managed to write 1k words today!! It all feels like crap, of course, but part of getting through writer’s block is pretending like it’s not there. I do have a feeling like I’ll cut most of it since it’s a lot of fluff, but I need to regain some of that writing momentum I had before back somehow. Also, I miss kotor...and Revan. His stupid voice is just not flowing at the moment. Honestly, it’s like acting (especially when writing first person). It’s hard to get back into character after a long hiatus...
Aaanyway...I’m glad I wrote something at least :’)

Please excuse the grammar mistakes etc. but I'm gonna rant for a bit.
That feeling when you wanna post what you wrote, but it's not finished yet and you don't want to spoil anything because you want it to be a surprise but you really wanna share it with other people cause you know someone else is gonna enjoy it too.
I don't think I'm a perfectionist, but I feel like most of the time you know when you're satisfied with how it is and ready to post. And then other times you're like nahhh not yet, cause you know if you leave that story alone and come back three weeks later, you're gonna be editing a lot.
Especiallyyyy with longer stories. Because what if I started posting it and then I get 65% done with the story but then I discover a plot hole and wanna go change it? And then I unfortunately have to go back and change another aspect of the story and hope it all makes sense?
Goshhhh

revising your writing is just like "is this weird. is this a weird sentence. is this the weirdest most poorly-worded sentence ever written by anyone" and the sentence in question is "he walked across the room"

"just write the story you want to read!" they said. well, guess what, now i have 14 unfinished drafts because apparently, i want to read 14 different stories at once.

I know this is the website where we talk about artists and writers doing anything other than making art or writing, but man, we REALLY undersell how good it feels to actually work on your stuff.
Like you hit your word count for the first time in a week and its like

finally working on part two of the Blood’s thicker” fanfic I wrote years ago introducing Sebastian’s Victorian Son Dorian Moran. But god damn it. Wanting to make him a regular little kid with tantrums and meltdowns to irritate Seb is so difficult bc I know realistically that kid would straight up he murdered the second his whining and crying gets an octave higher than Seb can take (& trust me, it’s not much higher than regular speech) & making seb even the tiniest bit caring & essentially a normal dad is so hard. 😭
the kid is two, & this man wants to drop kick him for just breathing. I can’t, I can’t. Idk if I’ll ever finish it. & now I realized why it took me years to pick up that story line again 🥲😭
but argh, I love little Dorian & want to develop him as a character 😭😭

this one's inspired by @cringefailvox's time has changed the metaphor!
It was such a good read and I couldn't stop thinking about these three ever since.
