reminder to myself about the process of drafting & revising:

  • first drafts are for making it exist
  • second drafts are for making it functional
  • third drafts are for making it effective

I really want a movie where there’s this Dark Brooding Male Hero who’s like, a total badass, and during all the fight scenes he keeps getting flashbacks to happy images of his wife, and like his whole narrative is framed around his wife, and all the other heroes on his team know that he’s got this passion and vengeance and think it all has to do with his dead wife… but then near the end of the movie his wife shows up and he’s like “hey babe” they’re all shocked and they’re like, “Wait I thought all your power and passion came from avenging your dead wife?” and he’s like “no bro, I just really love my wife, she’s really cool, she’s what keeps me going” like… a reverse fridge

Unfridge your wives 2017

Unfridge your wives 2018

“This whole saving the world thing has kept me from seeing my wife for like, three days and I was really starting to miss her!”

It turns out he’s normally a ray of sunshine and is only Dark Brooding Male Hero mode when he misses her.

Summary:

There was a ridiculous assumption that he was quiet and gentle because he worked with delicate flowers. In fact, Chu Shu Zhi may be one of the least stereotypical florists in the whole profession.

Apologies for the delay in updating, real life got in the way. I hope this chapter doesn’t suffer for the wait, apologies again

if it’s not up to the same level as the previous couple of chapters. There is at least one more to come, possibly two, I will try and get them done – and not badly, I hope – when I can. It’s a busy time right now until the end of the year. Thanks for bearing with me and for reading. 🙂

Hi. I have something to say based off a post I just saw. 

If you want to write everyday, that’s awesome. If you can write everyday, that’s great. 

If you can’t write everyday? That’s okay. If you don’t want to write everyday? That’s also okay. 

Tips for how to write everyday are so lovely and helpful, but if you just cannot do it? THAT’S. OKAY. 

I used to be in a writing discord (which was really elitist to begin with, but I stayed, because it was the least of that in comparison to all the others I’d found so far) and everyday they’d post writing questions. Sometimes these were questions about writing in general, sometimes about your OCs, sometimes to be answered from your OCs perspective, etc. You get the point. 

WELL, one day, one of the questions was: How do you help a friend who’s feeling demotivated with writing? 

And this one girl’s answer literally PUT me into a position of writers block because her answer made me feel THAT bad about myself. She said something along the lines of, “I don’t. That’s not my job. If you don’t feel like writing, then sorry, but you’re not a writer. Real writer’s don’t have this problem.”

And no one said anything. And I just….  

It honestly wasn’t until I made a writeblr and began to immerse myself into this little community that I realized that WASN’T true at all. If you can’t write everyday for whatever reason, even if you don’t WANT to write everyday, YOU ARE STILL A WRITER. YOU ARE VERY MUCH A REAL. WRITER. 

Please remember that. “Real writers” encourage each other. 

Same with art! You don’t need to draw all day and try new techniques and study study study art.

Your brains and body both need recovering time. Inspiration and insight stems the best from relaxed state of mind. That’s why you get your best ideas before falling asleep, in a shower, in a long car drive, while idling, while walking etc.

Writing and art still suffer from the horrible “Artists Need To Starve And Suffer”-idealism. Please ditch that. Be much more healthier in your approach to your creations and creativity. Ignore assholes and naysayers.
