You know in writing when you spend more time thinking about the story than actually writing it?
I am suffering from this now.
Because I have this idea, and I know everything that's going to happen in the story.
It's planned out from start to, like, at least 65%. Maybe 70%.
And yet, I open that new blank document and _______________.
Nothing. Nada. Zilch.
Why does my brain hate me?

@Anarchist Beauty: omg I feel you. I have a trilogy thats been in my head for a decade. I’ve written I don’t even know how many notes and ideas about it at this point, but can never seem to get a scene right OTL

@Ruby: It's a damn curse I tell you.
It's evil.
Like this story is fantastic, I'm in love with it.
But whenever I try to make it leave my head...
It turns to sheet.

@Anarchist Beauty: RIGHT. like what is up with that? How can I see it play out perfectly like a great movie and then not be able to write it down the same way OTL

@Ruby: It makes me so mad bc then I'm just sitting there, staring at a blank document and daydreaming about the fic instead of writing the fic.
USE YOUR WORDS
But there are no words...
Just fantasies.

@Ruby: I'm kind of shamelessly into fanfiction right now. lmao
So it's self indulgent and I'm kinda not even sorry about it. 😂

@Anarchist Beauty: I used to read fanfic xD I don’t much anymore but I do like to read in general.
Have you done any random writing prompts? In my case it doesn’t really help with my story but its nice to feel like I can still write rofl

@Totalanimefan: I've been writing for plenty of years to know that sometimes your brain just goes "mmm nah".
It'll work eventually.... I hope... lmao

@Ruby: I read it, I write, I wish I could live it but sadly the world isn't that fun. lmao
Yeah, kinda with with prompts? Maybe? Eeehhhh?
I've got another smaller fic I've been trying to work on, but there's this once scene I'm stuck on and it's killing me.
And as for other writing ventures, all my RP's are in somebody else's court.
