It's a fascinating thing when a character of yours has some kind of epiphany, and then suddenly, it hits you on a personal level. For example, my character just realized that the word "unique" can sometimes be a synonym for "lonely."

There's a fundamental difference between how real life works and how a narrative works. Reality is full of meaningless, random events, but a good story is intentional. Every single moment has to be purposeful, or it's just dead weight.

When you're trying to create something and also dealing with anxiety, it's really tough to tell the difference between helpful feedback and just your anxiety freaking out about whether a scene is any good. Mostly writing this for myself, but maybe it'll resonate with someone else too.

Seriously, is it just me, or is it super weird how stuff you've only ever read or privately jotted down suddenly starts happening for real all around us? Mind. Blown.

I have my favorite moments that are considered insanely hackneyed and worn out, but I can’t find anything sensible on this topic to read. Here are stories about #vampire love interests. What could be more formulaic?

One of the most fascinating villains is the kind created by the hero themselves. It’s even more compelling when the hero takes responsibility and steps up to fix the situation, facing the consequences head-on. Like Dumbledore and Tom Riddle, for example.

I love writing, but aside from a few awkward Harry Potter fanfics I deleted long ago for various reasons, I’ve never actually published anything. For the first time, I’m seriously considering changing that in the coming years. But there’s still a long road ahead.
