being a writer is
50% daydreaming about plots and writing
50% procrastinating/suffering during the actual writing process
It's definitely skewed more towards the distraction end of things. Tbh progress has fucking flatlined. I've been stuck in the 100-110k band for over a month! And I was doing about 1k per day!
It's not writer's block, it's hyperavoidance.

Writer Culture is writing 5000 words in one sitting for fun, but can’t even write a 100 word paragraph for school.
I have never done 5000 in one sitting and I'm mad about it. All these great authors and Im struggling to hit 1k a day.
Really funny how daily minor inconveniences at the office drive me to really dark thoughts about humanity.
Really hoping I can switch careers to full time author so the only person I can blame about uncomfortable chairs is myself. And also there will be a mandatory both earbuds in at all times rule.
I'm not losing my faith in humanity at all. They're doing exactly what I expect.
I just don't want to be associated with it.
What do you mean “chat” is now referring to ChatGPT and not twitch chat? What? What? What the fuck? No?
When I address chat I am speaking to a presumed Greek chorus of real human people shitposting on their lunch break, not a machine that devours lakes to covert electricity into slop.
Yeah, no. Chat is definitely not chatGPT. Incidentally, that's a good way to tell if someone is gullible and that they'll probably fall for one of those Nigerian prince scams.

It feels like the more work I put into the story, the more it backslides. I wonder at what point that turns around. Will it feel like an avalanche and have me running to the finish line? Or will it always feel like a struggle to make progress?
Sigh. At least I have this.
Bad writing is great!!!!
Bad writing means you took the time to write something, you, a real human being. It means you created something! And you have the awareness to see that there's room for improvement, too!!!
Bad writing is wonderful!!! Bad writing is a platform from which you can build your masterpiece! Bad writing is the backbone of good writing!
Give yourself permission to write badly. No, actually- give yourself permission to write something TERRIBLE. Give yourself permission to write such drivel that you can barely read it.
Nothing comes out a masterpiece the first time!! You think Isaac Asimov never wrote a total stinker he had to rebuild from the ground up? You think Jules Verne never wrote utter slop for a first draft?
WRITE SOMETHING AWFUL!!! Write something so bad you cringe about it years later!!! And then when that's done, write some more!!!!!
Writing garbage when you feel like you can't write is better than not writing at all. Eventually good writing will come out of it and you can either revise the trash or toss it.
Ain't no rule that says you can't rewrite stuff.
For instance, I started this book hoping to be economical with my words. I'm currently 105k in on the 5th version of my first draft and nearly half of it is notes and stuff that'll get yeeted when I get to the second draft. I expect the second draft will also wind up with a lot of notes to get yeeted subsequently.
And all those exclamation marks, you notice? Five? A sure sign of someone who wears his underpants on his head.

I don't have writer's block, I just don't want to write this part. Or that other part. Or this bit where I've got like 2 pages of notes I wrote telling me exactly what I want to go there.
When you daydream about your story and it doesn’t magically write itself onto the page:
I've got 25 days to plot, dissect, and intensify 59 scenes of my first draft.
pray.
"Haha, I'm in danger!"
Lol I don't have this problem.
Yet.

So much shit is changing on the daily I can't keep up. God how I yearn for this kind of ignorance.

i'll go down with this ship if i must
You know, I decided to treat this round of writing as a job and I've gotten a lot further. If I can't get a job doing what I got a degree in I might as well try something thats (probably) free, fun, and might pay the bills if I'm any good at this.
i got a fucking. advertisement on youtube. from google ai. saying. without sarcasm and with complete sincerity. "if shakespeare is too hard for you, you can always have our ai explain it to you." im gonna throw up. im gonna throw a molotov cocktail. if i see that ad again im reporting it for hate speech. how fucking dare you. i will kill you with my bare hands. with my exit pursued by a bear hands. i will tear google headquarters down brick by brick. im going to start biting people.
Say it louder for all the executives at the back of the class.
