You know you have imposter syndrome when you don't want to talk to people about what your passionate about in case whatever you say makes people realise you have no idea what your talking about and are just "fake"

I've started listening to Japanese songs while writing. I can't understand any of it so it helps not to distract me while I work.

I usually don't make posts like this, but I feel the need to vent. People who stick their gum in places that aren't trash cans are real pieces of shit. 😡
Seriously, how much of a lazy asshole do you have to be to stick your gum on a wall instead of just finding a trash can?

Good morning! Writing may not seem like a physical job, but it can do a number on your hands, wrists, and posture if you're not careful

Remember to take breaks and stretch before big writing sessions!

I hate throwing up. I'm sure everyone hates it, but I personally feel like it's a living nightmare to wake up in the middle of the night and huddle in the bathroom and wait for your stomach to decide whether or not it's going to spew out whatever you had for dinner last night 🤢

I hate naps, even though I should probably take more of them since I never get enough sleep.

I just hate the feeling I get when I wake up, not just by feeling drained, but feeling like I just pissed away valuable time when I could be doing something productive.

I'm interested in games like Honkai: Star Rail and Arknights, but the time needed to properly level up the characters detersme.

I've only got room in my life for one Gacha addiction, and I've already committed myself to Zenless Zone Zero.

I was going to participate in the writing contest on Royal Road, but I missed the deadline. I figured I'd be able to submit my story today, but I guess I misread the instruction,s as the last day to submit was actually yesterday.

I’m grateful that I am able to grow and be better than who I was in my past.

That should be the goal of every human being.

It may take time, but it’s possible to be genuinely good as long as you hold yourself accountable.

I'm bad with Grammer. It's never been my best skill, and that wouldn't be so bad if I weren't a writer.

It just feels extra mortifying when writing is your whole thing, yet you leave in a spelling error on your latest tweet. 😔

I'm currently reading the Skulduggery Pleasant series. I'm a sucker for urban fantasy and supernatural stories, but what I really love is how Landy blends together horror and humor so well.

Like, the most HORRIBLE stuff happens to the characters and they often just laugh it off.

So... I have thinning hair, and have started shaving my head to save money on haircuts.

It's efficient, but I'm constantly terrified I miss spots and have like strands of hair left behind that I can't see. 😒

Lucas is still dealing with Princess, but it's just another day for him.

When you have a choice, choose to be nice.

It makes everyone feel good, including you, and it costs you nothing.

Do you have a series/franchises that you like the lore/world of, but you don't like the main content they make? I have a few.

Mine are Overwatch, League of Legends, Five Nights at Freddy's, My Hero Academia, and Star Wars.

I can get a lot more writing done when I'm not listening to anything, but the way my brain is wired, if I don't have some sort of background noise playing, I'll slowly go insane 😵‍💫

Hindsight's 20/20, especially when it comes to kids' shows. I've been thinking about shows like "Out of Jimmy's Head" and only now realise how insane they were. Then again, I was 9 around the time, so how was I supposed to know theme park mascots being surgeons wasn't a thing?

My first car accident was a doozy. It happened when it was snowing and I didn't know how dangerous snowy roads were until I slipped off the road and flew into someone's backyard. My car was totaled, the back end caved in, narrowly missing my head, but all I got was a cut elbow. 😨

For me, the ending is the goal. You need to have that first in order to build towards something, otherwise your just adding onto a work with no idea where it's going.

Stories are like roadtrips, while the journey may be fun, you still need a destination.
#SFFChat Q2: How do you approach your endings? Do you know the ending in advance, do you decide later and then go back to foreshadow? Is the ending a small or big part of your stories?

No need to answer all these--just talk about your approach however you like. (:
