[citadelofswords]

ok time to go to sleep and not think about the fact that where i left off in the novel is midway through a scene and i've forgotten how i planned that scene to end

[watermelinoe]

[geddyqueer]

what if I rewrote the beginning of my novel AGAIN!!! teehee!!!

[ckret2]

I’d be super fuckin' stoked if you wrote some original fiction that contains UNREQUITED LOVE AND INTENSE PINING. Like, I'm pretty sure that's a given quality of whatever it will be, but I want to say it anyway.

HONESTLY probably the only way I'll be able to get a hypothetical novel to grip my heart is if it's about Unrequited Love And Intense Pining.

The trouble is, first, I've got to create two characters such that it clicks and feels correct and natural for one to be completely obsessed with the other.

Maybe what I need to do is make 40 OCs and then have them mentally speed date until sparks fly somewhere. Maybe that's what it'll take.

(... For those of y'all just tuning in, the reason I haven't written 500 novels by now is because I'm good at every single skill necessary to write a novel except "giving a shit about my own OCs." Not even "making OCs," I can do that, simply the "giving a shit about them" part. Hence why my reply to this post is "oh yes obviously the characters must pine, now where am i going to get two characters whose pining I care about?")

Dita patah hati ketika menyadari kekasihnya tega meninggalkan tanpa pesan. Dita sama sekali tak menemukan jejak lelaki itu. Dia harus hidup dengan bayang-bayang dan kenangan. Kenapa setiap tempat selalu mengingatkan dirinya dengan Gilang?

Meski tak pernah bertemu dengan Gilang, dia tak pernah menanggapi lelaki yang mendekatinya. Bukankah dirinya belum…

sometimes your favorite album from when you were 14 will be the biggest inspiration for your first novel and you wont even realize it until your a year into conceptualizing/writing it

was working on worldbuilding today and felt compelled to buy easel paper. still debating on if i should

hi sen!! <3 🦴 & 🌵? :)

hi lou!!!!! thank you for the emojis!!!<3<3<3

🦴 ⇢ is there a piece of media that inspires your writing? 

hmmm. definitley not one single piece of media. i tend to draw inspiration from a lot of different types of media, of varying genres. i think it really depends on what im working on. for example, i found a lot of inspiration from the second season of Fantasy High for my sci-fi novel, especially the relationship between Aelwyn and Adaine (the sci-fi novel is, at the heart of it, a book about sisters). and on the flipside, i find myself thinking a lot about SKAM when writing the steddie modern AU im currently working on. anytime i write a romcom, i'm thinking about Nora Ephron films and Emily Henry's books. listening to Fiona Apple makes me insane about the OCs i have cooking in my brain and there is no discussion that Yellowjackets and The Locked Tomb series are going to be on constant repeat/re-read as i trudge through the first draft of this novel.

GAH!

well, now that i look at this list, it seems i draw a lot of inspiration from films/tv rather than books. go figure.

but i also cracked open The Things They Carried bc there is one specific scene that has stuck with me since high school that i just can't help but want to emulate that feeling of grief and heaviness in my own novel.

tldr; i draw inspiration from any and everything i lay my eyes/ears on!

[fragilecapric0rnn]

no because why am i having to "market" myself in order to make it as an author? why happened to the days when writers could just rot in cabins in the woods for a few years while they drink whiskey and chainsmoke. why must i MARKET MYSELF!!!!!!!!

[fragilecapric0rnn]
