When you decide to make a story, whether it is a light novel, manga, movie, etc., it is best to plan out your story’s basic composition. Planning will help make your story a lot better, making it feel more fluid, creative, and unique. It can also help you avoid plot holes, inconsistencies with your characters, and writer’s block.

My favorite way of planning out my story is to do a “thought-dump.” Thought-dumping is taking any idea or thought and writing it down. The idea can be good or bad; just dump your thoughts onto a document. For example, I wanted a floating castle in my story, but it seemed illogical to add it. It just ruined some of the elements in the world I created. I ignored my brain and just added it anyway. After some thought, I found a way to add that floating castle. I tweaked a few things in my story, changed some characters, added some history, and made the castle significantly relevant to my arc and the whole series’s main plot. What I initially thought was a mistake ended up being one of my greatest decisions.

The best way I thought-dump is through a tool called Milanote. Milanote does not sponsor this post, but it is simply my favorite website, and I had to share it. Anyway, Milanote is a tool I use to organize my ideas and put them on a board. This board helps me better visualize my thoughts.

 You can add folder-type boards to organize your ideas.  You can also select a category for your board to use pre-made cards. For example, I created a new board and categorized it as “characters.”  This allowed me to use template cards specially made for characters.  The character cards allowed me to upload a picture for my character profile with a description of their goals, personalities, habits, and looks. I have made nearly a dozen characters to get a better understanding of them.

You can do the same with other card templates such as the novel plan, story outline, world-building, and story map. It is a really effective way to develop whatever I want in my story.

For my thought-dumps, I use an empty board and randomly place note cards to write my ideas. I can color-code these note cards to understand better what relevance they have. I now have about 50 note cards, some of which have up to 300 words. These thought-dumps can be anything: describing a character or his/her actions, an idea of a plot twist, outlining the power system of the world, anything you want. I am still in the planning/thought-dump phase, but once I’m near the end of it, I will connect all these notes in chronological order. This will assist me in reviewing which bits of information work, which ones don’t make sense. It will also help me check for plot holes within my ideas.

The Moment

But forgetting to reverse the baddest -'importantly'- moment of all time..

My hands were on his shoulder, even just for a moment -this importantly eternal moment- I did this on purpose, just to make myself feel the electricity -maybe make him feel the same too- between his skin through mine.

I didn't.

I couldn't feel it.

I am honest as hell, I had no clue why I hadn't get the feeling at that time. The following moment right after this is the last episode you just read.

Last sentences.. I shared in snapchat if this means something.

Because he sees it.

I hope it goes without saying that you can always ask me stuff, Tumblr.

Top 5 anything?

Weird character questions.

Fashion advice.

You know, the important stuff.

It’s been weeks, and I still can’t stop thinking about you. I try not to, I really do. But you slip into my thoughts anyway—quietly, effortlessly, as if you belong there, as if you’ve taken up permanent residence in the corners of my mind.

I’ve started sharing my words with others, letting them into this fragile, unpolished part of me I’ve always been too afraid to show. They tell me the words are beautiful, that they carry a kind of raw truth that’s hard to find. They say they feel something when they read them, as if the weight of my heart presses through every syllable.

And yet, I can’t help but wonder—would you think the same? Would you see yourself in these lines, or would my words fall short, unable to bridge the space between us? Every phrase I write, every thought, every aching syllable carries your name, even if I never let it touch the page.

I don’t write for their praise. I write because it’s the only way I know how to keep you close. It’s the only way I know how to make sense of this strange, hollow feeling that’s lingered since you’ve been gone.

Sometimes I wonder if you’d even recognize yourself here—if you’d see the light you brought to my days, or if you’d only notice the shadows that remain now that you’ve left. And maybe it doesn’t matter, because the truth is, I’ll keep writing anyway.

this blog is primarily for writing fanfic or really anything i'm in the mood for. (my requests are always open and up for anyone to ask!) thank you so much for your free time <3 and i appreciate it bunches !! let me know what you think.

here's some of the fandoms i'm definitely planning on doing: -> baldur's gate 3 -> attack on titan -> doki doki literature club -> ouran high school host club -> danganronpa

my T.O.S: 1) i'm pretty much open to anything as long as it's in my comfort zone. just don't be a weirdo with asking for requests LOL 2) i reserve the right to decline any request for any reason. 3.) writing can be a struggle for me sometimes, so all i ask is for you to be patient for your request (since this differs from an actual commissions, things apply case-to-case).
