I know, wrong place to post this, even more so if I decided to post in NUF so... yeah.

No mood to continue writing the dumpster fire that is my work, haven't post it up so I can lessen the 1* blows first.

E and N hentai have no inspiration for me. Same in Literotica and Storiesonline.

I remembered why I stop going into AO3 for porn, all those weird shits JESUS!

So give me your lamest post if you will, I would just give a free like for those who post in this thread, if I bothered to remember that I created this thread.

TLDR This is a shit thread, feel free to just report spam or pointless.

breh you're pent up and burnt out

remember the good shit that inspired you to do your stuff in the first place? Read up on that. Remind yourself have you're doing this for you and you only; nobody else is holding you by the neck like some dog on a leash.

1*s mean nothing. It's as inconsequential as a drop of water in the ocean. There are always people out there who'd never accept you for what you are. That's a fact. The best you can do is flip the bird and show em you couldn't give less of a half ounce'd shit. If you can't ignore it, treat it with spite. Do it just to spit into their faces. If you can't get inspired naturally, let your enemies fuel you and write out of pure vitriol.

Tis' but a scratch. A motivational stump where you'll definitely get over in two weeks. In the meantime, do what you really like. Play Bannerlord or crash into MOBAs with your pals. Watch some movies. Craft DnD characters that you'd never use but do it anyway. Wank. Whatever. So long as you let off that steam.

If you REALLY can't do it anymore, then stop. Take a break. Forget about it. If writing truly is for you, you will come back once more and face it all over again. Only this time, you know what you're up against

World ain't sunshine and rainbows. You can't curate what the planet throws at you. You're on Ultra Violence settings and there's no options button to quit. Not unless you count the barrel and the trigger, but you ain't a pussy, are you?

The best you can do is to tank it and keep moving forward. You tank further enough and you'll find yourself above the game's difficulty curve. Nothing will stop you by then.

As of now, keep on.

Every time I feel down, I think of the people that have stuck with my story so far. If I need to find reasons to continue writing, they will be one of them.

Take a break for a while, and log off from your account if you must. But don't take down your work.

Must be the burn-out; it will definitely come to pass.

Prolly burnout. Try relaxing and do some walking. You need to change your environment. Felt like that before... then I played writing into my own tune. Without pressure of schedule and etc. Then I'm good!

Think of everyone you meet online as a piece of shit until they prove you wrong, then you don't have to worry about being disappointed with anyone.

Thank you all for your kind words.

I am going back to writing crappy porn.

Yup, totally going to do that.

Your work ain't crap. I mean, look, you despairing about its quality and reception meant that you're putting time and effort in that. So yeah, it isn't crap.

It may attract negative feedback, but it's really normal. Just hang in there and weather those bad comments away. ???

Exactly! You'll never be everyone's cup of tea, so might as well be someone's shot of whiskey.
Thank you and thank you.

Ok, now I feel bad for fishing for complements like a common thot in Instagram and Facebook.

Also, not joking about the porn thing. My story word count is about 20k while porn... it has 100k. I like porn.

Nah, I don't see any problem writing about such topic, if that's what you want to write.

Yup, best part is that I have short and long term memory loss, so getting high to my own supply is always possible, after all, my target audience is me.

Think of all the people you've touched, and who have touched themselves because of your work!


I'm sorry couldn't resist.

Kinda nice actually. Exposure is low but still ongoing.

Though I actually hoped that they would comment on the writing style more, one just said "weird flex, but okay."

Same here. There are people reading, but nobody's giving any feedback. I'm guessing some of them are just holding back and are waiting for a bit more progress on my story before deciding whether to raise me up with high praises or beat me down on the ground like a dog.

This is a shit thread

I fucking hate gaming laptops.
Today when I walked into my economics class I saw something I dread every time I close my eyes. Someone had brought their new gaming laptop to class. The Forklift he used to bring it was still running idle at the back. I started sweating as I sat down and gazed over at the 700lb beast that was his laptop. He had already reinforced his desk with steel support beams and was in the process of finding an outlet for a power cable thicker than Amy Schumer's thigh. I start shaking. I keep telling myself I'm going to be alright and that there's nothing to worry about. He somehow finds a fucking outlet. Tears are running down my cheeks as I send my last texts to my family saying I love them. The teacher starts the lecture, and the student turns his laptop on. The colored lights on his RGB Backlit keyboard flare to life like a nuclear flash, and a deep humming fills my ears and shakes my very soul. The entire city power grid goes dark. The classroom begins to shake as the massive fans begin to spin. In mere seconds my world has gone from vibrant life, to a dark, earth shattering void where my body is getting torn apart by the 150mph gale force winds and the 500 decibel groan of the cooling fans. As my body finally surrenders, I weep, as my school and my city go under. I fucking hate gaming laptops.
