I hope this isn’t rude or anything but do you plan on writing again? I miss reading all your prompts x
Hi! This didn’t come off as rude dw.
This got long because I can’t shut up sorry.
I’m really not too sure. Definitely not anytime soon. I’ve got some major life stuff going down right now and everything’s lowkey in the shitter, but I’m making money moves and getting myself on track.
I’ve been doing a few like, here and there, but definitely not the way that I used to.
I don’t know if I’ll do prompts the way I used to. I used to hold myself to a minimum of 8 prompts filled a day. I would do that during my “free time” which was after I went to bed, meaning I hardly slept and pushed myself to crank out as much as possible and I’d write anything I got, even if I didn’t really vibe with the idea, I’d push myself until I found a way to make it happen and that wasn’t,,,,,,,,, the tea. If I open prompts back up I’m going to be much more picky about what I write, and not give myself a quota.
I’ve been taking this time to write some long fics and I’ve got three in the works. One of which I was gushing about to some folks the other day, I’m so excited about the concept. And it’s my very first original fic idea so it’s making me feel good things.
I think I did myself dirty by being so active in the beginning. Now that I hardly write I feel like I’m letting everyone down (which is my own shit I gotta deal with dw) and I’ve always felt kinda,,,,,, odd in this fandom,I guess? So now I feel even more odd not just being the Prompt Bitch anymore, you know? And on top of it all I’m in some of the fattest idea block I’ve ever had so,,,,, it’s all cute.
And maybe pushing myself to write ideas I didn’t vibe with made me think more and that’s why I had more creative juices? Or maybe I’m just all dried up. Idk.
But I can’t go back to cranking them out like I used to if I do them again. That’s for sure.
