#but i cant seem to get my subconscious out of that “perfectionist writing class” mindset

Question:

How do y'all "write something for yourself" that you intend on posting?

Cause I still subconsciously can't "write for myself" unless I don't intend on ever posting it, and then I can only get 100 words or less out onto a Google doc.

Idk if this is a byproduct of taking too many writing classes and writing for assignments or other people or not.

How do I fix this?

#galaxy rambles #ive been trying to fix this for a while #i want to write for self indulgence but i dont think i know *how to* anymore- #but i cant seem to get my subconscious out of that “perfectionist writing class” mindset #how do I fix my subconscious so it stops saying “oh yeah you have to make sure your writing is this this this and this” #and just lets me write the dang thing? #i think all the writing courses i took subconsciously trained me to take the focus off what i want to happen #and placed it on what i think SHOULD happen instead #thats the best way i can describe it #writer problems #im at a loss #writing #writing questions #fanfiction #writing stuff #writers on tumblr #writers #creative writing
