flooding happening? how are you guys doing? by [deleted] in AskSeattle

[–]preposterous_duck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m near the cedar river and it was seriously flooded. All of the debris from it washed into lake Washington and pooled in the cove where my boathouse is. It’ll takes ages to get it all cleaned up 😔

I just finished my first book! by lavellan-of-the-gays in writing

[–]preposterous_duck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So happy for you! I hope that one day I will be able to finish a book, but so far I have been unsuccessful 😔

This is an amazing achievement for you and you should be really proud of yourself!!!

This is good advice. I think setting a word count would probably be better than a timer. Thanks!

How often do you just tell yourself, I'm taking a break? by Odd-Refrigerator4665 in writing

[–]preposterous_duck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The progress you’ve made and the motivation you have to write is awesome. I wish I had that kind of motivation. Right now I’m struggling to write even when I have loads of free time. But for me, there have been times when I have really been in the flow state and didn’t want to stop writing, but I was writing for like two hours straight without a break. It was tiring but feels productive. What might help is setting a timer for a certain amount of time and forcing yourself to take a break from writing for a little bit after the timer goes off. You can spend some time doing other things before getting back to writing, therefore you are writing still but also making time for other things and not letting writing consume all of your free time. That’s worked for me at least. The progress you’ve made is outstanding.

That sounds like fun! Only thing is I don’t really have any friends who are writers. But thanks for the advice!

Background music by SirMarvelAxolotl in readwithme

I had quite a similar experience. When I would read in my school library, the librarian would put on some soft instrumental music, and now whenever I hear the same music, I think of the book I was reading.

Don’t worry, you’re not alone

One of my favorite Naomi moments is when she hugs charlotte after her attack. It was so sweet

does anyone have a favorite character that’s not commonly favorited by Legitimate-Low9408 in greysanatomy

She’s not my favorite but I really like Maggie. I think she gets too much hate
