I'm supposed to be writing a scene where Jean-Luc and his bunny rabbit friends try to escape an underground prison, but so far all I've done is write snippets, sleep, write more snippets, eat, write more snippets, then find myself here.
I'm in the middle of outlining a new story... and have been for like a month and a half now lol. The issue lies with the fact that the story came together as a high concept first and so I have lots of great scenarios and such worked out within the framework... but the problem is that I have yet to figure out what I want the MC to be. So I've been outlining around that fact and finally came to the point where I gotta figure that out Been procrastinating putting serious energy into that and instead working on side projects lmao
(well I guess they're "main" projects right now since the would-be main is stuck in outline hell )
Everything. But mainly my most recent novel, which was trying to be a kind of feminist fairy tale, but has ended up becoming unexpectedly sad. I'm not opposed to that, necessarily; I think it helps the plot; but it does make it more daunting to go in and work on it.
I deal with episodes of fatigue so sometimes I feel like I need to jam in productivity when I am awake, but sometimes I just feel stressed and I end up watching YouTube and browsing Forums.
The #1 thing I am procrastinating on is I have this idea for a game I want to make but haven't worked on it except for a few concept art. I guess I put most of my productivity into my comics so I don't know if I will ever get around to it.
I was saved by the bell (met todayās word count) from starting to write that bdsm dungeon sequence that I know is necessary but that I was dreading from the moment I started my book. It is so not me, but, alas, alas, plot doesnāt work without it.
Snippets are still writing!!
Hey Domi! Fancy seeing you here!
That's... a bit like saying you only read playboy for the articles. But I get it.
Editing it because apparently my story reads in slow motion. Might start by asking recommendation and cutting down the dialogue a bit. . .
. . . Baby steps, you know
This is a whole mood and I relate so much
Iāve been hardcore procrastinating on writing this scene/arc of a big, family gathering... and I donāt even know why. Maybe because I wrote the first scene and then I realized that Iām not sure what I want to come out of the arc and now I just feel a bit lost despite the fact that one part of this arc (that I havenāt written yet) is something I knew was going to happen from almost the very beginning of my story... Or maybe Iām procrastinating on writing it because after this little arc, I hit some big, heavy, really important plot point arcs and Iām super scared that theyāre not going to live up to my hopes or my readers expectations
I need to finish the part two of my chapter for my novel. But Iāve gone back and re-read what Iāve written and have been unsatisfied. I should also finish drawing my chapter for my comic, but decided to draw a prompt for a ādoodle a dayā on Instagram because it was more therapeutic and these past two weeks have been tough.
I've been pretty good lately Setting daily goals and that works really well for me So haven't been procrastinating in a few weeks xD(me now being here is me waking up with coffee)
Finishing up a few scripts for videos I want to make.
Started this novel-length sci-fi racing story about a driver struggling through his depression and anxiety as he re-enters the sport years after a crash. I am being hella slow with it and need to pick up the pace. I guess--like my driver character--I'm working through something too; in my case, procrastination.
Exactly like that. And I donāt enjoy it. Nuh-huh. Okay, ready to tackle it today... or not. Maybe I will coast for a while on descriptions of the tight pants and corsets they just have to wear
Hey there! Nice to see you on Tapas!
For me, the scene I'm writing right now is one where I'm trying to grasp the beginnings of romantic tension. I think I've got the tension part, but the romance part has slipped through my hands.
Thank you. I am just re-posting for now, but will try to write something specifically for Tapas afterwards
I have the same here as on wp xDbook 2... probably just here
I'm supposed to be revising a scene where MC is under shock and interacts with new people who insist on looking after her. First version seemed plastic and cheesy, trying to make it more organic. I am in a different headspace since I wrote the first version.
Thank you for this thread.
I'm supposed to write the first episode of my 2nd season but I'm currently putting it off because I don't know how to start it, lmao.
