I am NO writer by any means at all, but maybe to help with writers block, try writing completely random blurbs about anything. Something that doesn’t need to be structured or make any sense at all if you don’t want it too, something that you wouldn’t post. If that makes any sense? Like write about your day, write about your fav character going to the store and what they buy, write a little blurb about the bird outside your window etc anything at all! Just throw something down on paper! Maybe that can, you know, help get the ol’ brain going, sort of get into the writing groove and then you can just transition over to one of your stories. Bc I think right now you are just driving yourself crazy, putting yourself under so much pressure to sit down and do nothing but get the perfect story out immediately and off it goes for tumblr. And also thinking you are disappointing all of us 24/7, that’s not good either. That’s not helpful my girl! Bc then you start thinking omg I’m terrible at this, I can’t do this, I don’t know how to write anything!! And down the sad rabbit hole you go :(

Write something down that doesn’t have expectations attached to it

Maybe that might help writing be enjoyable again. Just writing some small, silly, random things down that no one else will ever see. Basically proving to yourself that yes, I can absolutely still write, I can come up with ideas, I can do this bc look *holding your little writing blurb* here’s the proof right here!

Or even just read some of your old writing, more proof you can do it, and an old story of yours might inspire you!

I don’t know, like I said I’m not a writer so i’ve never experienced writers block (except for school papers lol). But anyways, maybe this could be helpful. I hope it works for you!! 🩷🩷🩷

Aww nonnie, I swear to God I don’t think words can be enough to express my entire gratitude to you, and how sweet I found this message to be!! Everything you said makes the perfect sense 🥹🩷

You hit the jackspot in everything you said, and I agree. It’s more my brain gnawing on me about having not written anything and being scared that it won’t fulfill your expectations, rather than me actually writing! And yes, trust me it’s not helpful— I feel consumed by these thoughts and it makes me lack even more writing inspiration... Damn... 🫠

I will do exactly as you said, nonnie! Everything bit by bit. I will try writing some small little things, and lately I was also thinking that I could write small fandom imagines & blurbs— because I have done that too before and it often helps to get me back into the writing wheel, plus I will also apply your suggestions to see how it all works out!! But I believe it should go out perfectly 🫶

You might not be like a writer, but you sound just like one— and a very helpful one, as a matter of fact! 🥹 Seriously, thank you for taking the time of giving me a little bit of advice and boost to not bang my head against a wall due to not writing!!

You are the absolute sweetest,, I will keep your advice somewhere visible & near so I can always see it whenever I go through this writing block once again. I wish I could give you tons of big hugs & foreheads smooches for the greatest help!! 🥺💗
