It's easy enough to imagine the epic battle, with all the moving parts and everybody having a different weapon/power every member of the cast doing some unique role. Well, if it isn't the consequences of my own actions... #writingstruggles#authors#iwasnotready#ohcrap
Me: *dusts off hands* What a productive day of writing! My brain: Hey, wouldn't they have called X character for help though? Also this power of Chloe's has never worked like that before, and this thing HWE's talking about isn't information he would know. Me: 😭 #authors#writingstruggles#fixthat
I'm incredibly close to having at least a first draft done of all five books in the Chloe series. Like, literally four chapters away. But I really wanna write a cozy mystery about a seaside town with beasties and dark secrets. #writingstruggles#ADHD#sullivanhardgrave
I need to motivate myself to finish this novel, it's over halfway, but I'm so exhausted lately and now I've hurt my wrist. #writer#writingstruggles
Listen, we can't disrupt the process or I'll have to start all over. Better just let me work through it. But feel free to send snacks. #authors#writing#writingstruggles#theprocess#donotdisturb#okaysendsnacks#itsawholething#sullivanhardgraveauthor
It feels like the closer I get to my book release the less sleep it feels like I'm getting. I'm pretty sure I've knocked out all the plot holes in The Case Of The Cheap Suit Plot, but I still get paranoid about it. #writing#authors#writingstruggles
Well, shit. Do I stop writing long enough to listen, skip ahead to music I don't like as much, or stop to find music I like but isn't as disruptive, and possibly get distracted by starting a brand new playlist? UGH! #writing#authors#writingstruggles#firstworldproblems#sullivanhardgraveauthor
There’s only one way to write better: write more Believe me, it’ll suck. You'll struggle. You’ll give up. But after a million words it gets easier. That means you’ve got to write a million first. #writingstruggles#authors
