Me, Writing Something At 1 Am: Omg I'm Literally A Genius This Words Sound Amazing I Ate Totally Whith

Me, writing something at 1 am: Omg I'm literally a genius this words sound amazing I ate totally whith this one omfg

The writing:

Does anyone have heist movies/TV shows/books to recomend?

I'm writing a story about a heist and I really need some reference for it. It can be both period pieces and modern ones.

Please people of Tumblr, help!

I'm not too sure. I think Daniel Pennac's books are what did the trick. I loved his books so much when i was little, they shaped me in the person i am today. My favorite was and will always be The Eye Of The Wolf. It's such a awesome book with so much softness and love for humanity and the world, it's just too wholesome. Fun fact, my nickname is from one of his books! Sigma is a character of his (from a different book tho)

I actually did. Me and my brother wrote together a scenography that he had as an assignment for school. It was incredibly fun, he had most of the plot already in mind and i am more used to writing and how to build a story, so it worked extremely well! We started the silliest project after that too: a fanfic/rewrite of a completely unknown fairytale, but make it completely insane. 10/10, except we have been stuck on chapter 4 for two years lol

Oh hell yeah, way too many. From the top of my head i can say: queer people forming a found family, sad people meeting and making everything better for one another by simply existing, sassy bickering between friends/sibilings, stars/star-gazing as a symbol of (romantic) love, happy ending - even tho i don't think everyone would agree on that one -, moon x sun ships, chaotic duos, slow burn and omg i'm gonna stop here because we're never gonna stop if we don't stop here. Just a lot of love all around, always

Day 1

What inspired you to start writing?

Have you ever co-written something? Why or why not?

What are some reoccurring themes or tropes in your writing?

Okay get ready for a wild ride lmao: 1- twelve yo me drew 3 pages of a comic about a girl coming back home to her family, and then doing the "But to understand, we have to go back" and she started telling the story of her family (which i didn't know, so that's how it ended lmao). 2- around 2020 i picked it up like "this might have something to it" so i tried to decide the story of the family, which led to the creation of Serge and his sisters Michelle and Jaqueline. I decided Serge had to be queer because duh everyone had to be queer. 3- i fell in love with his story so much that the girl doesn't even exist anymore, the story is not told by a random girl in the future, sorry 12 yo me lmao.

I like my style of writing, most of the time. I love when metaphores just work, i love love love to write so much UGH. i would change probably my inability for world building rip

Oh my god, from my main story no one. Maybe Jaqueline, who is the most normal of them all. Or i'd just give a 24 hours hug to Serge or Akthi, not because they deserve it, but they 100% need it.

Day 6

How long have you been writing your main WIP? How has your writing grown / developed over that time?

Are you proud of your current style? Why or why not? What’s one thing you do well and one thing you might want to change / improve?

If you could spend a day with any of your OCs, who would it be and why? What would you do?

As i said in another answer before, this story is very much something i'm writing because i want to have fun with it, because i love these characters and i think their story is one that deserves to be written, even if i'm the only one who enjoys it

i'm not sure it's unique, but i think that the way i plan of balancing excruciating angst and horror with heartbreaking human connections and love is worth mentioning

Yes! My ex girfriend read a couple of chapters, and my brother read the first one. And that's a lot because i'm a perfectionist and also i have so much anxiety about my writing, i hate when people read my stuff. But i'm overcoming it by trusting the people i love with it. Also they both know the whole plot, to some extent

Day 12

What’s your favorite thing about your story and why?

What do you feel is the most unique thing about your story and why?

Have you ever let anyone else read your drafts? Why or why not?

Getting inspired to write is actually really easy! All you need to do is be the busiest you've ever been in your entire life and as far away from a computer as humanly possible. Hope this helps 🥰
