I've Been Writing For Years And I Still Struggle With This, Especially Since Posting Publicly. So To

I've been writing for years and I still struggle with this, especially since posting publicly. So to any writers out there who think their work isn't good enough, I've discovered your own perception on what you write is a lot harsher than how people will actually view it. You're doing fine. It's alright. :) Perfection is unobtainable so let's accept what we have!

It's going to be fine. <3

How to Stop Hating Everything You Write

1. Don't be afraid of making mistakes.

Quit judging yourself for every mistake you make along the way. Whether you're writing fiction, fanfiction, or nonfiction, just write. If you can't correct your errors as you go, that's okay. When I don't have the brainpower to multitask, I focus on the writing stage one step at a time. Just write!

2. Don't aim for perfection.

"It's not ready if it's not perfect." That's a lie. When you're in the process of writing, it's best to concentrate on getting your thoughts on paper.

3. Seek feedback and learn to receive it.

Join lively communities with active writers or forums that host events inviting writers to share their work for critique. Not every critique is constructive; learn to discern which feedback to take on board and which to ignore.

4. Read, read, read.

You can't give what you don't have. You learn a lot from reading similar pieces in your chosen genre. Reading is also a source of inspiration that fuels your writing process.

5. Cut yourself some slack.

Writing is no small feat. It takes talent to formulate a story with your mind and skill to visualize it for others to see. Do you love writing? Then keep doing it because it takes practice.

I’ve got this goofy as interaction in my head of Doey meeting Ollie 😭 I’m gonna draw it later but it’s like

“O-oh, um, pleasure to meet you, Mr. Playtime-!”

“OOP- please, sugar, just call me Ollie. Lovely to meet you too :3”

“What’s… they/them… OH!! YOU’RE - you’re plural too?!”

“Wait, no, I’m just non-binary-”

“KEVIN ARE YOU HEARING THIS??? I TOLD YOU WE WEREN’T THE ONLY ONE-”

And. Like. There’s an allocated panic corner at the Toy Tour. And they’re just both there mutually tweaking and trauma dumping about their parents 😭

Non-binary Critter!

Non-binary critter!

Guess who can use this for devious writing purposes *rubs hands mischeviously*

The plot of DAT is toys who rebel are bad and killed, and they don’t get rights. Which is funny because the holder of the event is openly non-binary and forced their way into that position for the sole purpose of getting the toys rights.

I’m telling ya, they and Poe are gonna have an alliance

“Tell me if you see any homophobes bestie”

“On it boss 🥰”

Rabie, Simon and Poe absolutely hate being ruled over at first before they realise their boss is LGBT… and then become absolute SHEEP

55 BOOKMARKS :0

According to the poll… you want a longer fic going to 1995.

Okay! Planning time! As of now, Smaller Bodies is 88k words. I’m gonna try to round it off to 100k, though this may a little hard because I still have to get Catnap… apprehended.

Then?

New series, same universe.

Destroy-A-Toy starts when the world ends.

My writing’s currently stunted because of Art Fight, but I’m still writing, just slower. Several people mentioned to me that Sugar Breath takes a different approach to the other stories, in which case, thanks! :D Most of it’s been told from Catnap’s POV, but I wanted to check out how the other Critters perceive her.

I might write one-shots to do with more Theo and Ollie because I love those two BUT. As MrMateusz says: TheoNap.

In no order, here’s my list of cryptic stuff to work on:

Get Smaller Bodies to 100k words

“And Then We All Fell (Silent)”

Pre-Hour of Joy

VERY depressed Dogday

Another cat and dog

Gender phone call + enby pook

SHE’S GRANTING US VISIONS!!

*sprays Theodore Grambell with water*

Umm why is he drawing Harley Sawyer getting his legs ripped off…?

Collect my friends’/fan’s OCs for reasons

Write the dramatic scenes to Edda Hayes music 👇

“Don’t need a knight to guard the cave, can’t count the dragons that I’ve slayed

You can give it all you’ve got

‘Cause love is running through my veins, this lion can’t be tamed

There’s fire in my blood

There’s fire in my blood…

BURN.”

And finally, let me just say…

Smaller Bodies is the 1991 half.

Destroy-A-Toy is 1995.

💜💛🔥
