Attention Writers!!!

Attention Writers!!!

So many times I see "just write! Doesn't matter if it's bad! You can always revise!!"

And I get that. It's something that a lot of people struggle with; being perfect on the first go. It's true that you shouldn't stress yourself out with something being messy. First drafts are BY NATURE messy.

But NEVER

I repeat

NEVER

Force yourself to write when you can't

Putting impossible deadlines or goals on yourself will NOT HELP

Writing should be fun! If it's not fun, if it's not freeing, if it's stressful and taxing and doesn't feel worth it

Stop

And let that be okay.

You don't have to suffer for good art.

Allow yourself to take a break. Take care of yourself.

But that doesn't mean you can't work on it.

Do background research. Outline. Take a personality quiz for your characters. Try to draw your characters. Try to draw scenes. Focus on character building. Write side projects. Create mood boards. Do whatever you want.

Thinking about it counts as working on it!!!

The writing process is vast and non-linear. Don't ever let anyone tell you that you HAVE to write every single day.

You don't HAVE to.

It's true, you can always revise things you don't like.

But it's also true that the writing process is more than just writing

While the first piece of advice always comes from the best of intentions, I've seen so many writers sink into bouts of depression, anxiety, terror, and low self worth because they missed their goal, they haven't written, they've run out of steam, they lack motivation.

And it saddens me every time.

Writers, take care of yourself.

Remember thinking about it counts as working on it

Approach your craft with love

Have fun writing

how about we start saying STINKY 👺 when we ADORE them and MY LITTLE MEOW MEOW when we DESPISE them ???

nebula 1×02 gave nebula 2×01 nickname 'bula and/or n'uls because that's basically what she did with t'challa by calling him cha-cha 🫠

don't come for me, this can be both platonic and romantic, i don't care, they are both lesbians but one is mean and the other is sly 🤌

because of what if..? 2×01 i'm now thinking about an au where that nebula meets nebula from 1×02 because THAT nebula has the energy of a vixen sidekick from old noir detective movies which perfectly accompanies 2×01 nebula who has the energy of deckard from blade runner (the whole episode has that dark cyberpunk theme, it's insanely good)

mind you, i'm a simp for this woman, i NEED to see them together-

NEBULA in WHAT IF…? S02E01 — What If... Nebula Joined the Nova Corps?
