Pygmi-cygni - ☆star Baby☆

i feel the calling of the Ancient One....my wips have been reborn....

Calling all active writeblrs!!!

I'm in dire need of more people to follow!!

Things I love and want more of:

Fantasy

Darker themes

Character driven stories

Romance

Dragons (I go feral for those puppies!)

Mainly original work, whether it's a wip you're wanting to publish or just for fun. Fanfiction is cool too, but doesn't peak my interest at much (idk man, i've tried. trust me)

Silly shit posts about oc's

If any of those are you please interact with this post! also reblog it so I can stalk more lovely writers!

I can only offer you my love and affection, but I hope that is enough.

i just learned about fgm and i have never been more horrified with the human race i think ever in my life

if you are a victim of this i want you to know that i am so sorry and i want to give you a hug and rip my throat out i feel so disgusting

why does this happen what the fuck

everything hurts i feel so ashamed of other people what the actual fuck

How to (hopefully) break writer's block

What's the scene about? Write it down

Guy goes to bar and meets Girl

2. Okay, but what do the characters do? Maybe something super basic about their feelings if it matters to the scene

Guy enters bar. He's sad about work. He sits at the bar and orders a drink. Girl walks up to him and introduces herself.

3. If there's dialogue, write it in dialogue format. If you can't think of something, put in a filler and move on; that's a problem for Editor!You

Guys enters bar. He's sad about work. He sits at the bar. "One [insert drink name] please." Girl walks up to him. "Hi," Girl says. "My name is Girl."

4. OPTIONAL Now that you have the basic scene, is there anything new you've thought of?

Guys enters bar. He's sad about work. He sits at the bar. "One [insert drink name] please." The bartender starts to prepare his drink. Girl walks up to him. "Hi," Girl says. "My name is Girl."

5. Add some adjectives/adverbs. Don't go crazy, just what makes sense

Bonus! If you already have some, feel free to change them to something more interesting

Guy enters an almost empty bar. He's upset about work. He sits at the bar. "One [insert drink name] please." The bartender quickly starts to prepare his drink. A pretty girl walks up to him. "Hi," Girl says. "My name is Girl."

6. Vary sentence length (aka smush sentences together)

You can just use "and", but a "because" will do a lot

Guy enters an almost empty bar because he's upset about work. He sits at the bar. "One [insert drink name] please." The bartender quickly starts to prepare his drink as a pretty girl walks up to him. "Hi," Girl says. "My name is Girl."

7. Honestly at this point you're probably not following the directions anymore because your brain is in writing mode. If not, go into editing mode. Take the writing you just tricked your brain into doing and smooth it out

Guy enters an almost empty bar, thinking about his problem at work. He sits at the bar, upset. "One gin and tonic please." The bartender quickly starts to prepare his drink as a pretty girl walks up to him. "Hi," Girl says, leaning on the bartop. "My name is Girl."

Maybe it's not your best work ever, but who cares? You just wrote something, and I'm proud of you ❤️

are there any writing tips you guys wanna see? I've been checking things off my list as I see them, but any questions u have I would love to answer!
