Yeah, And It's Really Frustrating Because I Was So, SO Excited To Write It And Nothing Is Coming Out.

Yeah, and it's really frustrating because I was so, SO excited to write it and nothing is coming out.

YES PANTSING! 😂 As long as I have the general gist of the story, why would I need to outline? Yeah. I always have to have something for my story, but I never end up following it haha

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).

6. write 3 sentences of any wip you’d like, post it in the answer. 

thanks for another ask! xx

It crept up on all of us. Pancreatic cancer, I think- no, know, after my mother translated it for me.

The doctors confirmed it for what felt like the millionth time, their voices flat and tired, and me, struggling to understand what they were saying.

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!

sir that’s my emotional support story that I’ve been working on for five years that still has no conceivable plot

HEYYY im the anon who said what fate decides is beyond incredible. When I said I love how you write so much, I meant I love your writing a lot. I love your writing style (?) Idk something in the way you write is amazing haha. English is not my first language so sincerest apologies !!

ahhh i'm sorry to misread it !! i'm actually genuinely happy you love my writing style, that makes me so happy! it's something i've been really trying to develop as a writer, and someone telling me that they like it just brings me so much joy ♡

no, you're fine! if i'm being honest, I actually learned Korean first when I was a child, then English dominated because of the education system, obviously. but it's so nice to see someone who is also bilingual (and maybe multilingual?) thanks for stopping by!

I WILL MAKE A DENT IN MY WIP THIS WEEKEND AND WRITE SOMETHING EVEN IF IT’S ONE WORD I SWEAR I WILL

me: i miss my wip

wip: then get back to writing
