“i’m gonna do it. i’m gonna write,” i whisper to myself as i continue to browse tumblr
I talk of malls with Kalina and now I want to write a story about some kids whose lives revolve around malls
I hate malls so much. Maybe I should write a series just so I can learn to love malls again.
It will be a story about kids who both hate & love their mall. Where everything goes on but for some reason they always miss it. They fall in and out of love with prices & co-workers. They become addicted to employee discounts. They film themselves at the mall even though it’s illegal to and the cop always busts them but the cop is practically their friend so they always get away with a warning. But no one cares.
Is that a young adult story I hear
(whispers) its a-ok to rely on fictional characters to get you through your life bc life is hard ok if it makes you happy stick w/ it and anybody who says otherwise can go fuck themselves (pets u gentlee)
I call for a show of hands.
Reblog if you’ve ever gotten emotional support from a fictional character.
Cause I know I have.
You can create a character and you can kill them in the most gruesome of ways.
sometimes i think i can write but then i see what other people write and
it all started when I thought to myself “hey these characters are cute together”
it all went downhill from there
the writing process:
not being able to draw ur own oc
And I think the idea of memory loss always calls to me
I love to write about it, exploring the possibilities and the side effects and its catalysts
what humanity will do just to get rid of memories
what humanity will do just to gain them back

Hello yes I wanted to say that I wrote 46k total ish for Camp NaNo
Technically it’ll say 50k but that’s because I used the last 4k with a word generator
I have written things pertaining to the novel concerning characterization and such I just haven’t… typed it out and I never will haha
I would have changed my goal to 45k but my computer never let me although of course it makes sense they wouldn’t let me change my goal at the last moment even though I’ve known for a while that I couldn’t make it to 50k because of the last weekend
Of course I could have finished had it not been for prom and Disneyland and those pictures that I took there are worth a thousand words and the memories that came with them
tl;dr Disneyland and Prom are the reasons I cheated for the last 4k of Camp NaNo and I’m not afraid to admit that because either way I still wrote 46000+ words this month
5k left 5k left
I need to bring Bottzy into this scene it’ll go by much faster it’s just much easier to write things when Bottzy’s in the scene because her scenes are very image-based as part of the wonder and ~intrigue~ that surrounds her
Currently writing up what I wrote during the day but around 6:45 I think I’ll be available for word sprints?
Either way I have a lot to write tonight!
