memes are fun and relatable and all that, but don't let them discourage you. all of that stuff that doesn't make it into the final product is part of how the final product gets made

Dont know if this actually works still, haven’t tried it but ya know…if it does then you're welcome 😂

You’re not just a writer.

You’re a goddamn survivor of your own imagination.

You live with noise in your head that never shuts up until you bleed it onto the page, and even then, it whispers, “Make it better.”

We all know AoD is bursting with unique lore, courtesy of the one-and-only Murti Schofield, but what other places do I draw inspiration from when writing my sequel novels? Here's a few...

A Positive Writing Rant

It's like 3am for me rn but I gotta say it dude, writing is so much fun Like real talk for a second, this might be a lil cringe but here we go Truthfully, I've been writing since I was 12 years old, and started attempting to write full novels for my main characters at the time (I got a grand total of 27 pages on my first one, to no one's surprise) Because of that first novel, though, I wrote a sequel which I never completed, but it managed to get to 18 pages before I finally called it quits with those characters because I had lost interest, which continued into me taking a creative writing class that sprung up a few stories that I plan on fleshing out in the future alongside my other projects, which continued into a LOT more adventurous projects Despite that, for a very long time, I never considered myself a writer in any capacity because I simply wasn't good at it to start and thought I couldn't become good(as just about any artist is) but in the last couple of years I FINALLY accepted that I enjoy writing at least a bit more than the average joe I don't know why I decided to keep writing despite thinking my writing was objectively terrible but I am SO glad I did, truly a hidden spark discovered much later than I care to admit So here I am now, working on 2 full length novels (one of them has already FAR beaten out my first attempt at a novel, all while not even being 3 chapters done) and I'm genuinely enjoying writing as well as considering it a potential career For all you beginner writers please don't let that little spark go out, it might be tough getting over that first hill but I promise you that the reward on the other side is so so worth it, even if you think your writing is "bad" or "cringe", it doesn't matter as long as it makes you happy Even if you never pursue writing as a career and stick it as a hobby, or for giving your characters lore or for even building your own personal fantasy world, do not let that spark die This may not hit a lot of people but I do hope it will at least inspire a few to keep writing Thanks for coming to my TED talk
