Saw advice saying 'characters need goals, not vibes' but then I think about Carr's 'A Month in the Country' and how sometimes the atmosphere and weight of place IS the story. Different approaches, both valid.

Character-driven, plot-driven, setting-driven... Writers love these labels but I realize I'm solidly in the 'here's a cool world, now let's see who shows up' camp

Historical fiction dilemma: Use the Latin term 'contubernium' and sound pretentious, or write 'tent group of 8 soldiers' and feel like I'm dumbing it down

@AuthorGFAllen That prick in the mirror, he’s always messing it up for me

The scenes I'm most proud of somehow end up being shortest in word count. This can’t be right, shouldn’t this moment be at least a page? Now I'm suspicious it's either brilliant or missing something

The irony of scrolling for motivation while not writing is not lost on me

@AuthorGFAllen See my query letters

Maybe it's Hollywood magic, but when writers crumple up bad drafts and throw them away, I think of my stuffed shelves or drive w/ 100 different versions of 'final_FINAL_v2_actuallyFINAL.docx'
