almost 2 years have passed but i’m still at the restaurant (listening to ttds and remembering wutp/g au still hurts it’s like your heart being ripped out of your chest and thrown across the floor all bloody and wrecked) and i will be in the next 100 years
Please, I just found out you have articles for each chapter of another place. Went to your tt and could only see the first and fifth chapter. Could you please link somewhere all the articles? They're so well made and fun to read (the one I've read can confirm), pretty please? 🥺🥺
I'm sorry I'm an idiot, the links are on the chapters notes on ao3. You can totally ignore me on the previous ask. But also, chapter 3 article with the twice girls cameo had my heart!! This is so smart! I loved discovering about the articles, I'm sorry it took me so long. But honestly, thanks so much for taking the time to make those. Sending hugs
it is indeed :)) which i also must say i think is genuinely my favourite j10 fic i’ve read it is very precious to me tyyyy
the house we never built is like my fav song because of u so thank u 🤲
Any tips for someone who is having trouble writing and completing a fic?
Could you share any writing methods that worked for you and helped you complete your stories faster?
OKAY what i do is #1 i read through what i have so far (if i have something) and i try and find what makes it exciting for me and what made me want to write the idea in the first place and trying to Harness that feeling definitely helps me finish works!!! other things that can help are looking for aesthetic/moodboard/pinterest board pics, making a playlist, etc which while technically might be seen as procrastinating can actually help you get back into the story so you can properly complete it.
also if i can talk to someone about them and hear someone else’s excitement then it makes me be like oh shit now i actually need to finish it!
in terms of finishing things faster e.g. for a fest deadline what i do is i just… muscle through and write something, anything, down. even if it’s terrible. even if it’s the worst writing i’ve ever done. i get SOMETHING down on the page and then i can fix it once i know what i’m working with. my perfectionist tendencies will often stop me from actually writing because i get caught up in trying to fix everything the first time so in doing this it makes the task seem smaller to me cause. the only way from here is up you know? it can only get better.
that’s what i can think of for now but if you have more qs feel free to send them along!
top 5 Ten ships (not including johnten)?
Did anyone ask for J10 on the bingo yet? If not J10 pls
hi. I just wanna say the fact that you're so young and already write so well. I can't wait to read more of your writing in the future. 😁
