Slay your fking Demons. It took 6 months and 4 days to write my 1st draft. I spazzed after day 66 with "writer's block" for 114 days. However, I overcame it this past week and finally finished this morning. On to the next phase 😈#lessgo#amediting#writerslife#writerscommunity
No shade towards full on pantsers. We all have our crosses to bear 😅 But, as I wade thru the revision process. I’m extremely thankful for the structure that exists in my draft. Had it not been there…omg 👀. The horror 😅 #amwriting#amrevising#WritingCommunity
@ERLeVar1031 I get that. As long as you have inspiration and drive, the overall structure will come from the writing. Imo, the amount of cleanup and ensuring continuity will rely on how you got there (process). Or you could just be like Stephen King and expect your readers to deal with it 😂
@ERLeVar1031 I’m a hardcore plotter. It allows me to see my entire story from beginning to end. However, I turn into a full blown pantser after that. Allowing myself to go down spontaneous paths that eventually lead to the next plot point. That workflow seems so logical to me 😅
@J_RomanceWriter Trying to open the plastic bags at the self check counter. Literally impossible to open. I just keep ripping bags off the dispenser until one of them is slightly open 😅
Finished my rough draft Xmas eve…last yr. Planned on taking 2 mos to let it cook. Life happened. Hello to 6 mos 🙄 Anyway, started revising today. Manuscript is a hot 🔥azz mess. Let the journey begin 😏#amwriting#amrevising#WritingCommnunity

When I finally decided to not give a shit about any of that anymore and realized that what I was writing wasn't going to be perfect. Not to mention that to get good at something, sucking at it is part of growth. The "curse" broke. If you have writer's block...write. Period.
50 days since I've written. I got 95% done with my first draft and just stopped. Burnout and Imposter Syndrome. The closer I got, the louder the voices in my head became. @AuthorJRose kept checking on me. She doesn't realize how much she helped me. Very appreciative ♥️ #ImBack😈
