Breaking through writer’s block!

[domisotto]

I was editing so much to keep up with daily updates, that I wasn’t writing in the past few days. Plus, the gym is finally opened. And I need to finish picking cherries (real cherries from a tree, because it confused people before, lol). Oh, and some competitions are finally starting in the sport I follow.

So, yeah, not much, but I got into my chapter rn, it’s only 3 to go to the end & hope to get the next few days writing more, and no longer updating daily.

I have found that writing prompts are helpful if I'm struggling. It forces me to think about something different and then I can focus back on my original project

If you check Google for "writing assignments to ease stress" you should find a ton.

Why have I never thought to do that before??

lol i am doing physical and digital art because I like being a diverse artist that likes exploring different media of art.

Yes!! Trying different kinds of art is so helpful, I’ve found! I’m fairly new at digital art, but I think it was an easier transition than it might have been since I dabble in so many other areas

And I need to finish picking cherries (real cherries from a tree, because it confused people before, lol)

That’s hysterical (but also amazing - fresh cherries are the best!)

it’s only 3 to go to the end & hope to get the next few days writing more, and no longer updating daily.

You’re so close!!!!!!! it’s amazing how much writing can happen without all the extra stuff that has to get done throughout a day

They are so helpful!! There were a few “answer from your character’s perspective” threads over the last couple months that legit kept me sane because it helped keep me connected with my characters but also think outside the box and throw them into situations they would never have been in from my story. Super fun!

I had a breakthrough the other night at like 3 am and it was so plot relevant and cute only for me to get back to it and the last ~1k words didn’t save so I had to type it all over and then power through and finish the chapter

[kmlangleyauthor]

I got so excited for that first part and then legit gasped when I read part of it didn’t save
But also, LAST 1K WORDS?!?! Daaaaammmnnnn!! How much did you write???

[foxnflames]

In that time span I’d written like 2.5k words so I had to write the 1k over then wrote 1.5k more. So the entire chapter’s sitting at 5.6k. I think you’ll like it

[kmlangleyauthor]

THAT’S FREAKING AMAZING!!!!!!
I always like your writing (but now I’m trying to figure out if you’re insinuating anything with that particular emoji )

[foxnflames]

am I? I guess you’ll have to find out in like...twoish weeks

[kmlangleyauthor]

That’s so far away I cannot wait that long - I will perish from curiosity

[foxnflames]

The hint I will give is: more friend time 🥰

[kmlangleyauthor]

Yessssssss I can’t wait!!

I usually fight through writers block by looking at life in a funny way. What I mean is that you should become more aware of your surroundings instead of being overly focused on writing. You would tend to find somethings that make you giggle.

Life does tend to have plenty of funny moments hidden throughout a day
