In the last week, I’ve experienced the most bizarre resurge in my prose-writing libido. I haven’t felt the drive like this since I was fifteen and it feels absolutely I n c r e d I b l e. Five thousand words down in the past three days alone. All I want to do is write.

So I think what happened here was: - I got some great advise from
@gregbuchanan that helped me set aside all the rules and constraints that had been burned into me and just write freelyPokaż ten wątek -
- I bought myself a notebook and began messily brainstorming individual scenes in a stream-of-consciousness kind of way, just writing whatever came to mind as it did so, building further on my outline with notes about setting/character detail, emotion from moment to moment, etc

- Both these things together not only inspired me and allowed me to see my whole scene in vivid detail (rather than just a tableaux from them), but also to embrace a ‘voice’, which couldn’t really come out when I was concentrating on form from the outset

I really think the focus on stuff like ‘wait no I shouldn’t use adverbs’ was killing the joy of it and penning me into a space too small to stretch in. Now I feel like I’m out of it, and I honestly didn’t know I could feel this way again. It’s amazing.

This is awesome! My novel's been languishing a bit, but last night one of my writing Discord friends got an offer of representation from an agent for his (admittedly brilliant) book. It's fired me up a bit. Let me know if you want to do some sprints etc sometime!

Good for you:) This is important (when you learn how to design) to remember that you should create also. It is great that you remember ;)

Thanks! Yep, definitely agree
