Help me with my diaryyy

[Nevafrost]

I recently discovered that I'm not actually procrastinating. It's not like I have a writer's block or something. It's not even like I don’t love writing anymore. So, why didn’t I post or write or update my novel for months? It's because I actually write, but not in any device. I don’t like to write in any kind of device. I do like to write in diaries. And, I already have like 3 ongoing novels in my diaries. But, I can't write when it comes to devices.
So, what can I do? I mean I want to publish my writing online. Ugh.

Ai-chan knows this illness. It's called "paper easy, monitor evil". Ai-chan too has this illness. It's so easy to write on pen and paper, but when it comes to typing it out, it's so boring and makes Ai-chan unmotivated. Plus, you have to put the book on the cramped desk and keep referring it.

So mafan.

The problem is the clutter. You have a book, a keyboard and a monitor. All of these takes space in your mind. Worse even if you're typing on those tiny keyboards in your small tablet. This is particularly terrible for people with depression. So all you need to do are get a big desk, get your desk tidy and uncluttered, and find a time when you won't be disturbed for the next 2-3 hours.

Ai-chan overcome it by getting a very big table and a cup of good coffee. A coffeehouse with a big table or a library that allows you to bring a cup of coffee inside would be good. Also, having a big keyboard and big monitor helps greatly.

Small tablets are so unproductive, we should destroy them with nuclear fire, alongside people who designed them.

Oh I see well you can take a picture and post it on here for your story, or type umm ask someone for help typing out your story and you can be there or read it tohh! You can make a Audio recording of it and use audio to text or just send that to the person friend

You could probably also try software dictation, so you write in your diary, then read it to your computer.

You can take a picture and press hold on it to copy paste text within pictures. If that doesn’t work there was a dedicated app to this kind of thing too. Then just edit it

Ah yes, a fellow practitioner of the Voynich Manuscript script?

 

[RainingFish]

Well, if the apps that recognize text don't work, why don't you try speech to text? Read out your content to some app that turns speech to text, then maybe use a LLM to help format it.

 

[Nevafrost]

Nein, nein. We invented a language called "Fevatala". Maybe it doesn’t make sense to you. Doesn’t matter, it doesn’t make sense to us as well

use a LLM to help format it

And let it rewrite half of that text?
Using LLM to format or edit your text is nothing short of killing the author's soul within it. It's no longer "yours," and the diary has to be "yours," not poisoned by delusional machines.

There is a tactile satisfaction in writing with a pen and paper.

IKRR! Like, the feeling when the ink bleeds through the pages when I'm thinking too deep about what I just wrote!!! I LOVE THAT
