13. Whats A Wip That Youre Determined To Actually Post Within This Month/the Next Few Months?

13. what’s a wip that you’re determined to actually post within this month/the next few months?

Destination Seoul. Like I need to finish it and then start the rewrite/reoutlining process. Once I feel satisfied enough, I'm also hoping to get alpha readers for it.

Other than that, Live Again needs to be reoutlined drastically to fit the fantasy genre haha. So yeah, the next months are definitely busy!

Joey! thanks for the ask xx

25. is there a wip you’ve re-written? 

I'm currently in the process of rewriting Live Again into a much more fantasy-like story (it was too contemporary for me haha). But there hasn't been a wip that I've rewritten, only a few drafts that I finished. (The editing process is clearly something I'm not used to).

Number 20 for the wip ask game please!! (Hope no one asked this already)

hi there! thanks for the ask xx

20. how do you usually come up with story ideas? 

ooh, this is such a good one. really, thousands of ideas come at me a day. it usually starts with a trope (fake dating), or a general scenario (like girl grieving over her father's death). Most of them usually come while I'm reading, talking to someone, or listening to music!

then I start to think about what subplots I can add to that, or I write a drabble to see if it's just a spur of the moment idea or something I really want to make my wip. I think developing the character definitely helps (basically background info.)

So far, only 2 have made it out haha out of the possible million ideas I have. But yeah! It's a fun process... if only I could finish my wips just as fast haha

hi there! what kind of fanfics do you like to write (I guess I should ask what fandom? Honestly don't know how to phrase this but curious!).

NOO HORRORRR

seriously, props to you for being able to stomach it. seriously wish I could but I just don't have it in me. and psychological horror? the SHIVERS haha. fantasy and contemporary is a genre I can relate to though! [[though if you like horror, might direct you to @mirrorthoughts and @gwens-fiction]]

Okay, now you're convincing me to read One of Us is Lying. I've seen that on booktok (wow, such a reliable source lmao) and I've been leaning towards it but I've been iffy haha. A WRINKLE IN TIME. I really want to read that, the blurb of the book and the movie sounded so interesting!

LMAO

Yeah, I wonder why chaos can't repair itself. Why do we have to do the work and repair a bombed facility? What's the point of building a building if it can't rebuilt itself?

I love your last line AHHHH

me, desperate for some writer friends/mutuals

hi everyone!

this is just a post where writers get to know writers, and hopefully through reblogs/comments we can find more people who not only read/write our genre, but just people who have similarities with us.

it's kind of a simple "get to know me" post, and anyone can join <3

feel free to tag your mutuals and reblog !!

3 & 7 for the ask game ❤️ @catharticallysarcastic

@catharticallysarcastic ♡ thanks for the ask :))

3. what’s a wip that you’ve procrastinated on the longest? why?

I would say Destination Seoul. Usually I'm very on and off with my writing, but when I have time to write, the words easily flow out. Except with this WIP, I've been getting serious imposter syndrome, and I can't write without comparing myself constantly to other writers and without stressing myself out. It's a terrible habit and situation that I'm going through that blocks me from liking my writing, and it's why I've been posting little snippets in hope to excite myself again.

7. do you outline before writing? if so, what’s your outlining process like?

NOOOOO PANTSER all the way. I usually have bullet points of what I want to achieve/the tropes or themes, but even if I write an outline, I write something completely different. Hopefully my next WIP will have a good, fully detailed outline, though! (Except I always say this, whoops).

Hi hun, 4, 7, and 22 for the WIP asks? xx

4. what’s a wip that’s fairly easy for you to get back into writing? why? 

Currently I have one WIP that I'm drafting and I'm outlining my other, Live Again. I would say that out of the two, Live Again is definitely easier to get back into!

22. when do you know you’re really in a writing frenzy?

You just know. Like I usually write in sprints because I usually need to throw myself in the WIP. But if the timer goes out and I'm still in there, noticing the time and just writing and writing and writing and not wanting to do anything else, then I'm in a writing frenzy. I can't stop, which is the best feeling in the world.
