Is It Too Late To Add This To My New Year’s Resolution List? Better Question— Is It Too Late To Make

yall one of my characters has the saddest lore, i hate it sm i just wanna hug him😭😭😭 (me acting like i didn’t give him the sad lore in question)

is it bad that one of my favorite characters i’ve written so far just so happens to be one of the most “villainous”?

i use quotations because she’s not necessarily a bad person, she’s just made a lot of awful choices that have led to awful circumstances for her and those around her.

she’s also someone who’s been through a lot. she has a good heart through and through, but i can definitely see some readers disliking her, which is fine!

it’s exactly what i want, actually. i want her to be a character people have mixed feelings about. i want her to be a character you either hate to love, love to hate, or somewhere in between.

funniest part is she was only supposed to be a side character aka the mother of one of my character’s😭

now she’s become my little phoenix rising from the ashes as the catalyst for the biggest scandal in my book series.

the main character before my current main character was the main character. she paved the way fr i cannot wait to write her prologue book one day!

grumpy x sunshine.

i hate everyone but you.

four core female group.

eight childhood best friends. seven love stories. lots of drama.

i love when i write out a scene idea (with plans to incorporate it into the storyline) and then i sit at my computer desk to do just that and my characters are just like:

“nah, we’ll take it from here tyvm.”

and i’m just like: oh ok! yes chef🫡

i can’t tell you how many “deleted scenes” i have in my notes app because my characters love to take the wheel from me🙄

taylor wrote ‘who’s afraid of little old me?’ for me and for me only

it’s hard being the daughter of a narcissistic father but i make it work! (i’m hanging on by a thread)

idk if anyone watches the bachelor on abc but ooo i *need* to air out my frustrations with tonight’s finale somewhere!!!!

more so some of the audience’s reaction to the reaction of the woman who wasn’t chosen because oh my godddd it’s proving how deeply rooted misogyny is in some people!!!!

news flash: a woman can be kind and *still* have a backbone!!!! omg!!! shocking discovery right!!!???

god forbid a woman expresses frustrations over a man blindsiding her🙄 god i hateeee the internet sometimes😭

no i don’t think you guys are actually getting it… i look in people’s windows… in case you’re at their table… what if your eyes looked up and met. mine.. one… more…. time?

just accidentally stumbled upon so many prologue story ideas for the parents of my characters in the current book series i’m writing.

and it ties in so well UGH i’m gonna have a writing orga*m!!!!!
