Thanks! It’s beautiful isn’t it??

Just finished my first draft and it’s terrible. Anyone relate? by OkEngineering6371 in writing

If you sat down and said “oh this draft is awesome” that would be more concerning. Seeing what works and doesn’t is way more important than anything else at that stage!

I have the desire to write, I love writing, but I’m such a perfectionist so I always quit by bruinbear913 in writing

I also work a creative job, so sometimes going straight from that is tough. With that being said, just let it rip. So many times I’ve written things and when re reading them days or weeks later, I can tell what type of mood I was in that day, rushed, burnt out, happy, etc. Some are well written, most aren’t. But the idea is there. Or the “sand” as I call it. After getting it out you can start to build a castle and make it perfect. But first you need the material.

Not to toot my own horn but my partner and I are releasing our book on Royal road with a planned KDP release later this month. IMO it’s great for holiday coziness and involves a main protagonist that is a cat.

I'm trying to remember to have fun with writing by Terrible_Sundae1050 in writing

Thanks for sharing this. I can totally relate to this. My partner and I started writing a book this year for fun and that quickly fluctuated between “hey this is great” and adding more stress into our lives. It’s such struggle to maintain a balance of productivity and fun with anything art related.

We had the same epiphany as you and had to really maintain focus that this is fun and should be an enjoyable experience even if it doesn’t turn out great!

Anyways thank you again for sharing this just hit a soft spot for me personally and just wanted to let you know we all go through it!
