Types Of Writer’s Block (And How To Fix Them)

1. High inspiration, low motivation. You have so many ideas to write, but you just don’t have the motivation to actually get them down, and even if you can make yourself start writing it you’ll often find yourself getting distracted or disengaged in favour of imagining everything playing out

Try just bullet pointing the ideas you have instead of writing them properly, especially if you won’t remember it afterwards if you don’t. At least you’ll have the ideas ready to use when you have the motivation later on

2. Low inspiration, high motivation. You’re all prepared, you’re so pumped to write, you open your document aaaaand… three hours later, that cursor is still blinking at the top of a blank page

RIP pantsers but this is where plotting wins out; refer back to your plans and figure out where to go from here. You can also use your bullet points from the last point if this is applicable

3. No inspiration, no motivation. You don’t have any ideas, you don’t feel like writing, all in all everything is just sucky when you think about it

Make a deal with yourself; usually when I’m feeling this way I can tell myself “Okay, just write anyway for ten minutes and after that, if you really want to stop, you can stop” and then once my ten minutes is up I’ve often found my flow. Just remember that, if you still don’t want to keep writing after your ten minutes is up, don’t keep writing anyway and break your deal - it’ll be harder to make deals with yourself in future if your brain knows you don’t honour them

4. Can’t bridge the gap. When you’re stuck on this one sentence/paragraph that you just don’t know how to progress through. Until you figure it out, productivity has slowed to a halt

Mark it up, bullet point what you want to happen here, then move on. A lot of people don’t know how to keep writing after skipping a part because they don’t know exactly what happened to lead up to this moment - but you have a general idea just like you do for everything else you’re writing, and that’s enough. Just keep it generic and know you can go back to edit later, at the same time as when you’re filling in the blank. It’ll give editing you a clear purpose, if nothing else

5. Perfectionism and self-doubt. You don’t think your writing is perfect first time, so you struggle to accept that it’s anything better than a total failure. Whether or not you’re aware of the fact that this is an unrealistic standard makes no difference

Perfection is stagnant. If you write the perfect story, which would require you to turn a good story into something objective rather than subjective, then after that you’d never write again, because nothing will ever meet that standard again. That or you would only ever write the same kind of stories over and over, never growing or developing as a writer. If you’re looking back on your writing and saying “This is so bad, I hate it”, that’s generally a good thing; it means you’ve grown and improved. Maybe your current writing isn’t bad, if just matched your skill level at the time, and since then you’re able to maintain a higher standard since you’ve learned more about your craft as time went on

Help me name a fic

I've fallen off the deepend and while getting ready for a con came up with the prompt that varigo cosplay as radioapple for a con and spice happens. Here's a sneak peek. --------------------------- "Well. If it isn't the Radio Demon."

Hugo turned with a smile.

"And if it isn't our sovereign." Hugo hummed, seeing his boyfriend in the white suit, top hat in his hand.

"I wasn't a big fan of the wig." Varian hummed as Hugo ran a hand though his sweaty hair.

"Oh no, that thing is going straight into storage after today." Hugo grumbled, then tapped his cheek. "Your makeup is coming off."

Varian sucked his teeth and put his hat on the desk of their shared hotel room.

"I can't help it. I've been sweating all afternoon!" He went to the bathroom, washing his face and pulling his own wig off, freeing his hair from the wig cap. "No more cosplay this weekend. Just lazy convention clothes."

"Agreed. So um..." Hugo scratched his cheek and looked away.

Varian sat on their bed and looked up at him as he placed a heeled boot on his knee, Hugo still standing by the air conditioner to cool off.

"...did you know our characters are um...shipped?"

"Our characters?" Varian asked, untucking his pants from his boots.

"Yeah. It’s called RadioApple. So…” He grinned and made his voice nasally. "Wanna...role-play?"

Little Update here

I'll be working on finishing my VAT7K fics, including the Hector/Cyrus ones while keeping the spicer collections going through special interests or even requests.

Note, there may be an incoming Hazbin fic. But please don't expect anything other than me writing fluff for a certain short king.

My main focus will be on my story I'm (still) revising and hoping to post here and on r/nosleep.

I'll post more about it when the revised first chapter is done and new second chapter is ready.

Thanks for being here and the likes and comments. I can't wait to get back in the swing of things.

Um. Okay.

Way to make me cry in a Taco Bell booth.

I find it funny that Jeremy Jordan sang two songs with almost entirely opposite meanings, one from a child swearing he’ll make his father proud, and one from a father telling his child she already makes him proud.
