Going Crazy While Writing Is A Part Of The Process - Tumblr Posts

In the rewrite of Grian in the Backrooms, I had a lot of trouble with one scene and ranted about it and I thought it was quite funny. This is what was written:

[Brother, I do not want to write another god damn apology. I have written so many limp-wristed attempts at saying sorry that I feel like I’m writing Backstage all over again. “Do you forgive me Henry?” “Sure William, as long as there is no more freddy fazbear!” and then I wrote the next book and there was more Freddy Fazbear. I’m losing my shit. Like, man, can’t this just happen off screen? Can’t I have the sense to either just write something good or take a shortcut? Like that one funny guy said, “don’t half ass anything, whole ass one thing.” So in that sense, I guess I either write a really bad apology scene or write a really good skip. Brother, I can’t do this “man I’m sorry,” “naw you good” shit anymore. I want to write Grian having horrific nightmares, not a bullshit argument plotline that only barely attaches to the themes of this fucking fanfic. And let’s dwell on that for an extra second: a fucking fan fic. BROTHER, can’t I want to write about Neil and Nevermore? Or like When Can We Leave? How about Chromatic Aberration for a change? Why must one of my greatest themes as a writer be forgiveness? And shouldn’t it be so easy here? IT’S HERMITCRAFT, it should be the damn easiest thing I’ve ever written! But nooo, it’s easier to write about FNAF and shit. Brother, please, what is this torment?]

Very silly, I believe. Don't worry, this will not be in the final addition of the fic :)
