The Weekly Writing Update #6

The Weekly Writing Update #10

10.08.22

I have no idea what to even write for this update.

I chose to step back from the plot chart yesterday and try writing chapter one, because that's the one that needs the most work right now. The other chapters I had finished were laid out in detail, but chapter one was only a few ideas because I always struggle with the beginning. I don't know how to start my book.

Anyway, trying to work on chapter one made me spiral and I started rethinking the entire plot and it got so bad I just gave up and went to bed. Since I woke up, the plot doesn't feel so bad anymore and I've stopped spiraling, it's just chapter one still thats bothering me the most.

So if anyone has any advice I would love to hear it. Because I'm kinda at the end of my rope here.

Not much of an update other than the fact that I did end up going back on that idea for Alden and Tomoe. Ha ha.

Had a few ideas but everytime I sat down to write—which I didn’t do much because I’ve been so busy—nothing came to me. Truthfully, it’s been like this for a few weeks and it’s pissing me off. So this past week I wrote a total of one sentence.

ANYWAY that’s it

I think the reason I’m spiraling so bad and wanting to just delete my whole wip is because I have no one to talk ideas out with because all my writer friends just dropped off the face of the earth </3

No update this week because I’ve had no progress. :(

The Weekly Writing Update #15

11.12.22

Okay so I had major writers block this week, :( I kept sitting down to write but nothing came to me. but I worked on the plot a little bit so hopefully I write more SOMETIME when I’m not working or sleeping.

⇨ Alden is now introduced a little bit later, and how he’s introduced is also changed as well as his relationship to Tomoe. I think this can make their relationship a bit more interesting, but I also loved their old dynamic so don’t be surprised if next week I go back on this. But to be fair, I can still use their old dynamic and adapt it to this change… hmmm

⇨ Working on my villains and their motives. God I’m going to make them the sexiest bitches ever

I think that’s all. I’m really a lousy writer and always focus on the ‘planning’ and ‘ideas’ rather than actually writing, but I want to document my progress nonetheless.

:)

Hey so.. I don't know if anyone still follows me. Or is interested in my writing. I completely abandoned my last major project that I used to post about--a while ago--and I've recently gotten back into writing. I'm starting a new WIP but I'm stuck between two plots, if anyone cares to share their opinions :)

A.) Knight finds a girl with amnesia who turns into a bird monster, and he just became a fugitive. So he takes her and they go into hiding, fighting shadow monsters and working to get her memory back.

B.) Noblewoman is set up to marry a prince from a neighboring kingdom, but is actually sent to steal the source of magic from their neighbors. Instead, she falls for the prince's knight. ...instead of the prince.

Unless these are both stupid/need to be workshopped, my DMs and Asks are open to anyone with constructive criticism!! Or any other writers wanting to talk (I need more writer friends) 😭

Following writers

My dash is a bit slow. I think only two people I follow ever post anymore. 

If you’re an adult (18+) and you write original fiction, maybe like or reblog this so I can follow?

I can’t promise I’ll follow automatically, but chances are higher if you(’re)

⭐ Write and read something other than YA

⭐ Actually post about writing, or post your actual writing, rather than mainly posting fandom and shitposts

⭐ Write literary and/or experimental fiction (this includes literary genre fiction too, e.g., literary/experimental scifi)

⭐ Not an anti-intellectual (”Classics Bad! Books for adults are all boring and about divorce! YA and fanfic are superior!” - not interested in this mentality)

⭐ Keep social justice and current events posts to a minimum unless it’s relevant to writing (to be clear, I am a queer leftist. But I want a writing-centric dash and I get this kind of thing elsewhere)

Side note, I’m not a new writeblr. I used to be @inkvials

Today has been such a day

i want to spoil my whole story and tell people my plot twists and yet want to keep it a mystery too and see their reactions later
