I kinda wish I could do the usual thing that authors do where they're like "Oh man, sorry guys life has been real busy!" Because then I wouldn't feel stupid.

Goddamnit, someone posted my writing process again.

I'm sure this is how it is for most writers, we just don't like admitting it.

That is actually the only episode I've ever seen of Doctor Who.

I wonder how weeping angels feel when it's the middle of day and a dog pees on them.

[LoneWolfFL]

I kinda just accumulate ideas, then try to jot them all down on paper while finding out what I can do to connect them all.

[kudzuhaiku]

Just start cranking words out. It's getting them to stop that is the trick.

[EverfreeSparkle]

3214484 Strangely enough, that was the only episode I watched for years. I then tried to start that from that series beginning; got bored two episodes in.

WELP... At least your honest!
I was going to say that I can wait for a chapter because it's that good of a story but I like your honesty and will repay it with honesty
I sorta don't wait for chapters so much as I realize a story was updated from my favorites or tracking list and take the chapter like a surprise gift. Not something I wait for but still something I'm happy to have

It's cool dude. It's the same with a lot of stories I read. The Last Crusade just updated and I was like "Oh yeah! You exist." And then I realized I had to read it from the beginning to know what was going on.

Yeah... I'm sorta feeling out of it now... Kinda... What?
I'm up at the ungodly hour of 7:30 in the morning after waking up around 6 in the morning after sleeping around 1-2 in the morning/night and I just got done reading one of your fics about a man finding a dead applebloom on his doorstep
Huh.

"Hey ____, What should I write?"

"A man finds a dead Applebloom on his doorstep, he is mildly disturbed."

"Alright."

"...Wait, are you actually doing it?"

"Yeah?"

"A thousand words of that crap."

"I committed."

You know what.
Okay.

[Nyerguds]

My writing process these days seems to be

1. get sleep deprived
2. write like a madman
3. crash
4. goto 1.

[ShadoAnnaru]

I know how you feel. Ugh.

[Enryu57]

3214537 Then when no one is looking the weeping angel transports the dog through time just to spite them. Free snack, and they don't get peed on any more.

[Frission]

Pickles, that's more of us than people realize — we just hate to admit it

*Big fluffy hug*

[Reykan]

I have done this exact thing for the last two days with substitute.

I get to my computer, telling myself that I'll write something.... But then I see the minecraft and skyrim shortcuts, and do that till I fall asleep. But tbh, I did get a job so that's kinda screwing up my nights, seeing as it's usually 4-11 pm..

And if I do get to Microsoft word, I just start typing random prologues to other stories I want to write, but know I'll never finish...

[PiercingSight]

>My writing life...
Dangit bro. Stop telling the world how it really happens man. We need them to think that it all just magically happens in our free time so we look cool!

Bounce ideas off some friends and get those creative juices going!
