Writing Tips

[(Anonymous)]

Share?

Please.

I'm attempting to write fic right now and I'm...struggling, to say the least.

Alternatively, are any of you out there writers? Tell me about your WIPs or your most recently finished works?

Re: Writing Tips

[philstar22]

I've got three WIPs.

1. Sauron creating the One Ring fic.
2. A Sauron/Melkor fic post Beren and Luthien.
3. This multi-one shot PWP fic that is basically exploring different kinks

I haven't written in almost two years, though. My muse seems gone. At one point I had a few ideas for the first one, but by the time I actually had time to write the ideas were gone.

Do you know what precisely you're struggling with? As in, characterization, or making a plot twist work, thinking up a good ending or even just getting started?

Re: Writing Tips

[(Anonymous)]

I saw your comment where you're struggling to start a fic. When I do that, I find a prompt list of just random words, start at the first one, and set a timer for 8 minutes.

Then I write for 8 minutes and have to include that completely random word somewhere in my writing.

It doesn't always get me good places, but it gets me somewhere. There's no time to sit around and fret about ideas or anything and the word prompt gives me enough to aim towards without having to think of a bigger picture.

I have two WIPs, but I’m stuck in the, “This freaking sucks”, mindset when I write and I keep deleting and rewriting and I’m not really getting anywhere. I know what I want to write. I have it all drafted out, but when I actually sit and write, it just comes out as trash.

Re: Writing Tips

The best advice I can give right now (that i need to follow soon) is that money permitting if you have ADHD ...get something for it,


Sorry probably not helpful but it's killing me right now. My brain wiring prevents me from seeing almost anything through then my OCD is like "welp we're cursed to fail the universe is against us" and I just fall into a self defeating cycle

What's up, FS?

Tell us about it!

Re: What's up, FS?

[philstar22]

I don't know. Everything is fine generally. But I feel tired and kind of depressed and I'm not sure why. But I'm drinking a tasty mug of hot chocolate and watching clips of LOTR and Star Wars actors on Graham Norton. So right now all is good.

And now my cat is asleep on my legs, and everything is perfect.

Hoping it will storm for a bit so I don't need water my garden. Did nothing much today. I need some motivation to crochet more. :(

Dog and housesitting. Nursing a really bad headache that's mostly dissipated, but has lasted almost an entire day.

Attempting to put my money where my mouth is and write.

I haven't eaten dinner yet. Maybe I should do that. Might solve a problem or two.

period talk

[(Anonymous)]

This period has been so bad, like literally the worst one I've had in a while and mine are usually quite shit. Yesterday I was flushed and sweaty and the last couple of nights have barely slept. I've gone through two packs of 10 overnights.

I want a hysterectomy so bad.

Re: What's up, FS?

[nanslice]

Today was the third day of my new job and the power was out for most of it, lol. Fortunately I was mostly shadowing other coworkers so it didn't really affect me that much. But still, bit of a clusterfuck. I also didn't have money for lunch and when I tried to move money from my paypal account, they were like NO.

I also got a parking ticket because my job starts at 8am (but we can start coming in as early as 6am) but the parking in front of the building isn't allowed between 7am-9am. Which is pretty dumb in my opinion. :\

It honestly hasn't felt like that bad a day but when I write it all down, oooof. XD

Taking tomorrow off work and feeling guilty af about it.

Re: What's up, FS?

[(Anonymous)]

One day before holidays for two weeks (it's a staycation and I plan to hermit at home and it's gonna be GREAT) but I'm also bad at holidays because my anxiety is such that I am fretting at everyone hates me and no one will want me to come back. And I know the last two days before I come back will be spent staving off intrusive thoughts about how I should just quit because clearly they don't need me and I'm worthless.

And, reader, I know this is incorrect and all in my head.

It's still all in my head though.

Anxiety sucks.

(Even when going on holidays.)

I am no longer needed for standby jury duty and they didn't even get to my number anyway, so that's a relief! But I'm still depressed about this guy from the past and our central air conditioning unit for the house still hasn't been fixed yet. It's been four days without cool air and it's in the eighties here.

Just got back from my cousin's funeral in another state. :( She was only five years older than I am.

What are your favorite phone games, FS?

[(Anonymous)]

Candy Crush? Sherlock? Fishdom?

Re: What are your favorite phone games, FS?

[kaijinscendre]

Word Search, Pokemon Go, Monument, Logic Puzzles, Thomas Was Alone, Cryptogram, Joining Hands, and Zengrams.

Re: What are your favorite phone games, FS?

[(Anonymous)]

Not solely phone games, but I played the Ace Attorney trilogy on my phone years ago.

OP of secret 6

[(Anonymous)]

*cough*

I also like any nonograms or kenken games.

Re: What are your favorite phone games, FS?

[(Anonymous)]

Nonograms are so fun. The Luna series is my fav. I like the story.

I also play Tears of Themis, Idoly Pride, and Starry Love because I'm absolute trash for pretty men, idol girls, and dress up games.

What are you watching lately?

[(Anonymous)]

The only thing I've really been keeping up with this summer is ABC's Claim to Fame. And even then, please no spoilers for last night's episode. I'm not quite caught up.

Other than that, I've mostly just been going to movies. Especially one of my local Alamo Drafthouse's Film Club. Last night, they screened Studio Ghibli's Only Yesterday, the English dub from 2016. I loved it.
