Writing Tip #2277:

writing tip #2277:

stop thinking about what you want to write and just do something else instead

my brain, interrupting my daydream: this is poorly researched and the narrative is not compelling

me: I should write

also me: 

Friend: oh, so you’re an author?

Me, nodding: yes.

Friend: so when do you find the time to write?

Me, still nodding, slightly teary-eyed: yes.

I don’t want to write this extremely specific fanfic of which I am the primary audience, I just want to read it.
