    This is literally me. I can’t even write more than 3 sentences without saying “who the fuck do I think I am to even be writing!? This is not only terrible, but I’m some sort of pretentious douche that I think someone should read what I created!”

    Comments don’t count as writing to me apparently lol

  • Me: Alright, time to get down the basics of my idea so I can flesh it out further once I’ve gotten the outline worked out!

    Also me: I have been writing for ten minutes and this isn’t on par with Shakespeare. Time to crawl in a whole and never write again.

  • I literally always feel unmotivated when I read through first draft material. It sounds stupid in my head, sounds like I’m rambling, nothing makes sense, I’m a horrible writer.

    So I just don’t and I hate myself for it. I need to teach myself to just push through it and actually go through an editing process.
