#will i ever try to make one again? only time will tell (probably not) #editing is HARD #y’all that can actually do this are wizards (i love you) #swann arlaud #anatomy of a fall #anatomie d'une chute #vincent renzi #anatomy of a fall vincent #vincent renzi edit #anatomy of a fall edit #swann arlaud edit

kill your darlings, except that sentence isn't a darling, it's barely functional and actually, you hate those words, any other words would be better, but it serves its function, and having to come up with new words to replace it with is work, more work than you're capable of right this moment, and do you even have to put in the energy to kill that not-even-a-darling if it works, not fine but just enough?

you know you'll feel better once you rewrite that sentence, once you find better words, but the words aren't coming, and perfect is the enemy of good, so you try to tell yourself it's fine, actually, it's clumsy as hell wording but it gets your point across, and so what if you stumble over it when re-reading your own draft? it's not good, but it's not the worst either, it's just nagging at the back of your brain and you can't stop thinking about it, but better words aren't coming, either...

killing your darlings is hard, and so is killing not-even-darlings, but I did it, and my story is better for it

#writing #kill your darlings #I struggled a frustrating 24hrs with that one single sentence #and just as I decided to hit post anyway #the better alternative came along #idk what the moral of the story is #but that's life I guess #editing is hard

Editing TEBF

So for those who don't know, I'm editing TEBF! I haven't done major edits, mostly due to school and other obligations preventing me from doing so, but I've found the time to slowly edit the chapters!

This means that I decided to add to chapters like descriptions, character reactions, and more that help flesh it out better.

I didn't know what to add in my previous (mostly grammatical) edits of the chapters, mostly because they were fine as they were. But now I want them to be better.

Or at least, better than before.

As such, newly edited chapters will be marked with a 🌷near the chapter title.

I hate that I have so many ideas for edits for wolfwren and shin but don't have the skills to execute them or the money to buy aftereffects

I'm out here struggling on capcut

FIRST BLOOM.

First Bloom, or the Day of First Bloom, marks the official start of the world's growing season. It is also celebrated as the day humans were first created by the Son. Every community has its own version, though they all share the veneration of the Son on this day through food and other earthly pleasures.

About to meal prep for this week and while things are baking, I'm doing some edits on the chapters I printed 🖋️

Let's hope I don't burn our lunches 😂

Shifting from writing mode to editing mode is such a buzzkill

“Come at me, bring it on. Either you live or die.”

There is a target on your back. There are dangerous people after you, and your only chance of survival is to hire bodyguards from the mysterious agency Selene Services. And when you meet them, they’re nothing like you had expected them to be. You realize that your life will never be the same after this. All you can do is trust these men with your safety. Question is, will you? Who will you choose to protect you? One of them? All of them? The choice is yours. Your life is in their hands.

My brain, happily writing away in present tense for an entire chapter; "Let's start writing in past tense and see if she catches it."

Me, the next day; "Why the fuck is this passage in past tense?!"

I done did another one.

That is, cleaned up and posted an old tumblr drabble on AO3. And it’s a Cherik one this time. Fair warning though - there is nothing but angst, sadness, and tragedy to be found here. Such is the case when dealing with a story involving the death of a child. I warned about it in the tags and the notes at the start, but consider this another one.

Seems wrong to say “hope you enjoy!” with subject matter such as this, but I hope it turned out okay, at least?

#my stuff #writing is hard #editing is hard #cherik #tumblr drabble collection #sad story #I wish they had included Anya in the movies #but instead #we got Nina #which is fine #Nina is (was?) a dear #i think they could have had the Anya story as part of Erik’s backstory #but that sort of ties into how I wanted xma to go in general #which I won’t go into in these tags #lol

#poetry zine #poetry #editing is hard #all i write about is god and love and pop music anymore and it's a lil repetitive tbh

Me 20 minutes ago: I can’t wait to get into editing this story and make some real progress on it!

Me now: Hecc, this is incomprehensible.... I don’t want to start from scratch though, so here we go!

#writing is hard #editing is hard #but I will push on
