Don't get stuck on a scene

Not in the mood to write the scene you’re working on? Don’t worry about it! Make some notes and move on.

There is no shame in just jotting down the main points in a scene and revisiting it later. It’s ok to just not be feeling it sometimes.

Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book.

Advice I'd Give to My Younger Self.

Be unapologetic about your presence. Never enter a room with your head lowered. Hold your head up like you are proud to be who you are. Take up space. Be bold in your actions. Let your voice be heard.

You don't have to be perfect. Get over perfectionism and the fear of being embarrassed. Learn to own all your flaws and insecurities and continue to do what you love.

What other people say mean nothing. Never loose sleep over anyone’s opinion of you. They are not God and they don't define you.

Believe in yourself. You can be successful just like those people you look up to. You have what it takes. Hone your skills and be great too.

Appreciate your unique gifts and qualities. Stop comparing yourself to others and changing yourself to fit in. Always stay true to yourself.

Writeblrs who play tag games: How do you interact with the writeblrs/posts that you tagged/invited?

Twin poll: How do you interact with posts/writing that tagged YOU?

I’m asking specifically about writer tag games—Last Line, Heads Up Seven Up, OC in Fifteen, etc.

Assumptions of this poll:

#1: They tagged you in their post (“I was tagged by...”). You saw the notification and are aware that the person 'took' your tag to participate in the game.

#2: “Reblogs” include instant and queued reblogs.

#3: For the purposes of this poll, organizational tags like #other WIPs or #your writing count as the ‘no tags’ option even though they are, in fact, tags. (If it’s only those, not accompanied by comments on what the person wrote.)

Thanks for helping to sate my curiosity!

It was magical, the way she effortlessly captured my soul..

Unrequited, unconditional, unstoppable, her love just ripped through me like a storm..

My heart beating, my breath fast and unsteady, I was completely lost for words..

It was so absolute, she was so certain, I didn’t even have to be heard..

Her smile could have conquered galaxies, but she said “all I want is you”

It was magical, rhetorical, and an unspoken “I know you love me too”
