me, outlining:
super duper writing tip
so i always see debates about formula-plot outlines in the writing community and i just have something to say about it. formulaic writing is a-okay with me, but honestly it makes me so dAMN frustrated to see formulaic characters. archetype characters are helpful but please pleASE PLEASE jazz them up. with quirks, habits, odd phobias, ANYTHING! that antihero hardass detective with a drinking problem? he fosters baby kittens and has a weird handshake. the emotionless assassin? really, really, really likes milk for some odd reason and maybe that’s why he kills people, to pay for the milk debt he has garnered from the milk mafia. mean rich girl? she knows martial arts and owns four tarantulas. bad boy street-fighter? he’s terrified, and i mean terrified, of cows.
moral of the post??? your plot can dumb and boring, but your story can and will have potential if you just make your characters interesting and complex with quirks and mannerisms. also, dairy related products as plot devices can make any storyline sound interesting.
when you come up with a great idea for a WIP but realize how much planning you have to do for it
One thing that helps is to give myself permission to write badly. I tell myself that I’m going to do my five or 10 pages no matter what, and that I can always tear them up the following morning if I want. I’ll have lost nothing—writing and tearing up five pages would leave me no further behind than if I took the day off.
