my e-mails inbox and smooth brain are graveyards to my writing ideas
write for yourself. put your fantasies on paper. no one knows what you are writing. no one knows what's in your head. no one is going to write it for you. if you don't write down your ideas they will disappear. if you are too scared to write your thoughts then don't write, try something different. if writing is the only way, get to writing. no one else's opinion matters. no one else's opinion will ever matter
i think a particular feature i love about tumblr, as opposed to wattpad or ao3, is that you don't obsess over the stats that show you how many ppl have read your work but not liked it. personally, that feature of ao3 and wattpad puts a damper on my creativity. it makes me hyperfixate on numbers as opposed to enjoying the process.
tumblr offers me a space to just create. if ppl heart it or reblog, then great. if they choose to only read it, great, too. I won't know the ratio of reads:likes and this way I won't overthink about all the ppl that gave my stuff a chance, but walked away. i won't try to decipher the reasons for that walk away.
