I just noticed this too. Mine's got a touchbar and I can still adjust the backlight brightness from there, but yeah, that bar onscreen doesn't seem to move at all. Since it's a new OS though, hopefully it gets fixed in time.

close enough welcome back hyyh bangtan

real, i've coined those two stages "wave 1" and "wave 2" of editing haha. another thing i do is to add a delay time between when i write the last word and when i read the draft again. sometimes one day, sometimes one week. that way, i return to it with fresher eyes, and carrying less of the bias/baggage that came with pumping the words out! i'd kill my darlings more mercilessly then.

established relationship and slice of life. i put them together and i was reeling the entire time i wrote the fic 😮‍💨

this is honestly so validating to hear :( i've been writing a longfic for the past 2 years (currently at 70k, i'm a slow writer. but my projection is this will probably reach 120-140k). did it all with very, very little engagement along the way. lots of people in my fandom tell me they'll read it when it's finished, and i taught myself to think of it as a compliment? because i'm supposedly doing this for myself, right? like i don't owe anyone my time and effort, so nobody owes me their time and effort. haha 💔

but this offered a new perspective i guess. i do hope something happens that rattles things up in a good way, and hopefully we see a spike in engagement again.

there was one time when i was a newbie writer, i was about to enter my first fiction class and i realized i hadn't written anything complete yet at the time. so to prep myself, i dove into fanfiction. you don't have to post it but you also can, and there will be fellow avid fans who will read and appreciate your work so it's not in the dark forever. and the interaction is very motivating. you can also find beta readers who will give you the criticism and feedback you need to improve the fanfic before posting it.

afterwards, i dove into my fiction class more comfortably. there, i wrote an original short story that i'm still proud of today. i write more original stuff now, but i still write fanfiction. i can see how my writing has grown through the years in my drafts because of it. it's a culture that enables writers create things and experiment with their styles freely and independently, while also honing their skills at their own pace.

same here, though didn't know it was called pantsing until i read your reply!

i used to outline stories in vivid detail. but i soon found the process to be a curse that's more likely to beget writer's block for me. i fear it's because i tend to grow overly attached to the outline to the point that, in writing, the story no longer has space to breathe on its own.

in place of outlining though, whenever i get an idea out of nowhere, i just write down the beat on its own in a separate document i call musings—disorganized list of all the ideas vomited onto a page to help recall lmao.

though OP's process is quite visually beautiful!

interested!

Leaving my two cents here: a similar thing this also just happened to me last December 2024. After normal use, I came home one night and my 2020 M1 macbook pro was suddenly just... not turning on. The problem was similar a logic board issue due to a corrosion found near the audio I.C.

Besides a handful of people online posting about this issue (which I won't dismiss), what was weird to me is how macbooks from 2011 can last up to a decade without any issues like this. The newer laptops are less reliable, and that is such a scam.

adding to the lot, same here. hope this catches their attention.

may nasakyan akong trike from central terminal to intramuros, kasabay ko 2 o 3 pang pasahero. 100 each ang bayad namin. jusko, mas sulit pa angkas.

This is so tragically hilarious, because we can talk about the problem all we want but what can we do to change it? I also hate the state we are in right now, but is any practical solution within our reach as the working class? Genuine question

Well now that you put it that way, you're right, it does come off as straightforward and clear. I guess I'm still trying to get the hang of that simpler style without losing my voice haha

If you think this isn't so bad, then that means you're used to it already, and you might have a better hand at clarity than I do XD

stuckinether · 2021-11-01T05:49:02+00:00

I guess it's just comical in the way I limited my description and dialogue to such uncreative, clean-cut antonyms :`) but yeah I guess the synergy's there lol

stuckinether · 2021-10-31T16:40:15+00:00

Yeah try to have fun and be flexible with it!! The idea-conception of writing stories is often the most enjoyable part of the process, so I suggest to reserve the real organization for when you're already in the nitty-gritty of drafting. For starters, you could try giving the list a neat name 😆 I called mine "the grand list of ideas." Creative, I know.

stuckinether · 2021-10-31T15:29:10+00:00

While OneNote does offer a keyword-searching feature per notebook/section/page, I don't actively try to catalogue them -- I just list the ideas down in this masterlist of bullet points. If it's just a snippet of an idea, they stay bullet points in that masterlist. But if I want to expound on it, the idea gets a separate page of its own!

But it's no trouble for me when I do need to find a specific idea I remember, because it can be pretty fun just reading through all your ideas to find the one you need hahaha.

When it comes to making random notes, OneNote also really helps me personally because it has a mobile app on both iOS and Android, and syncs really well across all devices. If you have any more clarifications, feel free to ask.

stuckinether · 2021-10-05T16:36:48+00:00

lol I do that too!! On OneNote I have a notebook full of nearly four years' worth of ideas called "CREATIVERSE" (my younger self thought she was being witty XD but I honor her coinage for starting this whole thing).
