is this thing on

I’m straight up CRYING

The person who commented “sounds like a bunch of kazoos having a panic attack” made me laugh out loud :D

“it is YOUR turn to watch them. what, no, you don’t need to pick them up what are you doing, just- no get BACK here i said it’s your TURN”

passing in public makes me feel like white shrek

Real thing that changed how i write: I started asking "what does this character think is wrong with them" and separately "what is actually wrong with them." Those two things are almost never the same. She thinks she's too much. She's actually terrified of being too little. He thinks he's bad at commitment. He's actually just never met someone he trusted enough. The gap between their diagnosis of themselves and the real thing, that's your character arc right there. you don't have to explain it. just write both.

I love this way of conceptualizing creativity!

you gotta read, you gotta write, you gotta draw, you gotta watch films and shows. there is literally NO time to be employed

never recovered from this
