When writing...

What do you feel is the worst thing that can distract you personally? How do you deal with it?

When I write I write either on airplane mode or on a piece of paper because if I don't I would literally just sit there.

Plots to destroy the world usually get us distracted from time to time. We then remember that we want to become famous writers and that writing fanfiction is but a stepping stone on such a path, we then try as hard as we can to get back on track.

Netflix bc I'm almost always in the middle of a show. And...and I don't deal with it. I just watch Netflix instead of writing. That's why I don't have as much written rn as I'd have liked.

Work is actually good! I tend to plan at home and use my planning time at school to write.

Games, food, making food, friends, pets. The wind blowing...

How do I deal with what now?

I don't get distracted in the first place. My memory is that of an elephant, my mind is like a steel trap, I absolutely never forget what I am doi-

A lap full of toddler who objects to my using the keyboard is my worst distraction. There's really nothing to do but wait until she naps or gets occupied doing something else.

The internet. Since I don't have mobile devices, if the urge to use the internet or read up on its drama gets too heavy to avoid, I try shutting it out by moving to one of those sites you can fullscreen.

If that doesn't work, and if it's warm enough, I'll take my writing to the park nearby. It's not much because there's a road a lot of trucks use not far behind it, but it helps.

Sisters, drawing, youtube videos,,, oh and school shit too

I usually deal with my sisters by doing whatever it is they want me to do, hoping it doesn't take long
Dealing with drawing,,, i just draw what i feel needed to be drawn *shrug*
Youtube I just speed the videos up
School is just a pain in the ass and I can't do shit about it

Reading other stories, watching other stories, so basically stories.
