biggest writer problems
hola there, reader
thanks for taking the time to scroll through my blog and click on this post, i hope you enjoy ;)
now, shall we begin?
1. trying to write dramatic exits
2. when you know every word you put down is trash but you have a deadlines anD HAVE TO GET IT DONE NO PRESSURE OR ANYTHING
3. having a brilliant character with development and quirks and you’ve already fallen in love but now you have to write them a story…with a plot…that has to be as good as the character
4. when you read a book and come across a genius idea that would work perfectly for your own story but there’s this stupid thing called plagiarism that would have you fined for copying
5. seeing really cool movies with non-writer friends and trying to point out all of the clever plot twists that the screen writer put in
6. when someone says "i’m a writer” but they’re clearly not and they can’t even spell ‘they’re’ correctly
7. when you can’t think of a clever/eloquent way to say what you want to say
8. “how’s the editing going?”
9. "hey, i heard you’re writing a book, what’s it about?”
10. when the villain starts explaining his whole backstory and evil plan at a crucial moment and you’re just like agAIN????
11. when you get too many story ideas at the same time
12. deciding whether to kill a character
13. trying to come up with awesome names for fantasy characters
14. when soMEONE DARES TO INTERRUPT WHILE YOU’RE IN THE MIDDLE OF WRITING
15. alSO WHEN SOMEONE DARES TO INTERRUPT WHILE YOU’RE IN THE MIDDLE OF READING
16. when you think you’ve brilliantly crafted a chapter, full of plot twists! and sudden events! and surprise! shock! death! and then you give it to someone to proof read and they’re like, “wut is this, i don’t understand”
17. when you emerge from your hermit cave after hours of relentless writing
18. you feel writer’s block coming on and try to convince you’re that it’s not that bad so you won’t jinx it
19. and thEN BING BANG BOOM YOU’RE DEAD AND WRITER’S BLOCK HAS TAKEN OVER
20. suddenly you’re in the middle of the biggest writer’s block you’ve ever had and you might as well be stuffed through an inch-wide pipe with sharp barbs sticking out of it because nothing is worse than the loss of creative genius
21. trying to come up with backstory for a character and it’s just like, “okay...he’s an orphan? nobody loves him? dark and troubled past? loses somebody he loves and goes to fulfill their dying wish?
22. when you kill off the best character and suddenly all the hate mail starts coming in
23. “you should outline each of your chapters word for word in complete detail, making sure to take note of your character’s development in each chapter, before starting to write it!”
24. when your mom goes through your internet history and you have to convince her that no, you’re not having a baby, you just need names for characters.
and that’s all for today!! i’m planning a post for next week called ‘biggest reader problems’ for those of you who loves books, just not creating them :)
let me know if there’s anything you’d like to see on this blog - more stories, more edits, more posts like these (or less?? idk)
thanks for reading through, have a great weekend
