WRITERS WHEN THEIR CHARACTERS DO THINGS THAT ARE OFF THE PLOT 😭😭
When I write a paragraph after a week of running away from my WIP:
I just want to have my Rapunzel kinda tower with books and food and a lovely scenery with no people...is that too much to ask? 😭
Writers finding out that they actually have to write their book, not just fantasize about it.
*Screaming in S.O.S 😭😭😭

Writers planning on spending their weekend on a writing spree, brainstorming ideas, editing their manuscript and coming up with the most amazing plot for their story.
The Couch which they usually laze on:
"Am I a joke to you?" 👁️👄👁️💅
Good Lord 😭😭😭
*Scrolling on my phone and seeing a writing meme*
"Oh wow this is so funny!" I say as my story collects dust in the background
Lmao 🤣
“what’s your writing process” i put a pathetic guy in a blender and blend blend blend
sometimes you have to remind yourself that drafts are like onions—layers upon layers of tears
ON POINT!
i've said it before and i'll say it again. writers are always told to 'show, don’t tell,' but sometimes you just have to tell. no one needs a poetic paragraph about how the sky is an emotional metaphor for your protagonist’s angst when you can just say, 'he was sad.' trust your instincts. you know when to show and when to tell.
Bam!!!!
