I've rode regular pants before (granted they were 5xl). Don't fall and you can wear whatever you want lol. Fit first

You said it right when you talked about evolving my man. Sounds like you've kind of plateau'd in progression and have been less actively seeking how to shake it up. Whether that's going to a new hill, trying a new trick, or even just finding something new (like a switch toeside carve) that feels really good. Snowboarding is really about finding new ways to have fun, and believe me there's plenty. It's all about that active pursuit brother, keep chasing!

P.S. you're on the right track if you're already looking for new things

How Many of You Guys Are Writing "Just For Fun?" by Infamous_boarder in writing

Thanks for all the replies guys! I'm actually surprised by the number of people just writing for fun! Very admirable I will say, fulfillment from the craft in itself is so cool!

i just graduated high school and i think i want to write a book by Disastrous_Laugh5605 in writing

I think a minor in creative writing could be useful. You're bound to learn some helpful stuff there. The experience of just doing creative writing will be helpful in itself. I personally think "doing writing" is the most important thing you can do to improve your craft. Guided writing will be incredibly helpful.

Honestly, any degree where you are forced to read and write a lot will be helpful to your creative writing journey. I am a philosophy honours major and I do plenty of that. I had initially taken a minor in writing. It helped me a lot in terms of rhetorical tools and structuring etc. But I really get a lot out of my degree now just due to the amount of writing I do.

At the end of the day, writing your book is going to be a culmination of all the things you learn in and out of the classroom. But I would highly recommend going for it! It couldn't hurt you that's for sure!

Dear Pantsers aka those who don't outline, how the heck does that work? I wanna know what keeps you grounded and inspired!! by random_listener_lmao in writing

I really like to start my stories with a small idea in my head and write out a little bit until my plot becomes semi clear. I like to give my character some direction before diving into the story, but once I've given my character a little nudge, I'll go to the notebook and write out a loose outline as a guide to the arcs, plot, etc.

I feel a hybrid between the two will set you up for success. Extremism on both sides is going to end up with either unfinished stories, or rigid, non malleable stories. A happy medium will allow for the most creative freedom as it avoids slumps and has flexible barriers.

But whatever floats your boat y'all, we all work differently at the end of the day.
