in the end you shouldn’t be afraid of rebelling against the writing. most of the time what makes it hard to execute the technical writing is the barrier of what you might believe is traditional prose/prose rules. you have to leave them aside & focus on the feeling. of course, for it to sound clear & enjoyable in the final product, you’ll absolutely have to fix some aspects of its grammatical form as going with the flow can carry you a bit away. it’s what i personally often do myself. the first wip will have sentences three-pencils-long with more repetitions than i have freckles. & then i’ll refine it; definitely split them into two three separate sentences too. don’t be afraid to just “yap” in your docs. it’s for you, you’re the only one who’ll see the unfinished version for now. this is helpful especially if english is not your first language & you need to actually use your skills & brain to make it “make sense” before sharing. that sought of it to sound perfect from the start is what stops you from progressing. just free your soul & empty your mind & leave the pictures, scenes, colours, movements, feelings you want to describe there instead. do not think about anything else but the story. worry about the grammar later.

i also write down “keywords” i want to use in specific scenes/sentences. while i am writing “cold war”, i put brackets between some fragments (of the action) where i’ll type what i want to convey, for example: “[coal, the smell of napalm/ashes, mechanical/weapon-like metaphors for the body & its movements during sex, pulling the trigger=relief of cumming]”; it doesn’t have to comprehensive to anybody else but you & it’s an extra support for you bc 1. you always look for more wording/think of other stylistic devices first & then write the rest without freaking out that you might’ve forgotten something as you were preparing the x fragment, 2. forming the scene becomes easier as you basically have an outline for the specific expression—this is how you also work more on your vocabulary! unfortunately i don’t have better advices when it comes to learning more of it than just saying read not only novels but poetry too, listen to music and just looking for synonyms if you feel like you need them.
