    Writing Writing habits

    Like others said, if you just wanna write for yourself, you're good to go. Honestly, I miss the days when I could just write something and not be afraid of what people would think of it, that's a mindset I need to get back into but that's just how I am as a person. Writing just for yourself is a...

    What is the most surreal comment you've ever received?

    Yeah, I've got nothing to contribute to this thread since the few comments I've gotten have been pretty chill, but I just needed to say this was a special kind of experience and I appreciate getting to read it. Deeply concerned about the person who wrote it, but thank you for sharing.

    Do you listen to some musics while writing?

    I've been very much into Starset as of late so they're a pretty good go to for me, especially since they've got two full albums up on YouTube. Lo-fi music is a favorite of mine as well. Sometimes I for something that fits the atmosphere I'm looking for but usually I just need some background...

    I hardly think it's fair to use "every cover has an anime girl on it" as a judgment of the originality of stories. That's just an art style preference that's popular with the community on SH and similar sites. You could take the Song of the Lionness books, draw Alanna in an anime art style, and...

    Am I strange?

    What if your pfp is your D&D character, who is a guy but looks very feminine because of your art style? Hypothetically speaking.

    What tiny detail in stories irritates you?

    There were days when I did writing on my phone, and still I say that you must have the patience of a saint. My answer to the question: Everything when I'm writing it myself. Many plans have fallen apart because I thought of a very specific "wait but why didn't X happen" or "why didn't Y do...

    How many words do you write a day?

    So long as I'm not being lazy and actually sit down to write, I can usually manage ~1k-1.5k in a day comfortably. Typically, I do 15-minute writing sprints (usually 500-600 words each) where I focus more on word quantity over quality just to get my chapters down onto the page first, so I usually...
