I used meth to write my book (I genuinely have an ADHD component to my mental health but it still fucked my brain and I’ve been clean two n a half years), but now I just brute force this ish. I mean, I smoke weed. Drink maybe once a week. And I masturbate to achieve ecstatic gnosis, obviously (and NOT on offbrand Walmart Benadryl anymore), but I shit out 2k-7k words a day by being agnetic, which means I always go above the call of duty, voluntarily, and I’ve done this for about twelve years, sew I r a gud @ righting automatikly liek fer reel d00d.
Don’t focus on the book. Focus on you, growing as tall as you can living your best life, and the books will essentially fall out of you as long as you’ve done the work to get where you need to be.
Are you sure you actually laid off the cocaine? 😅
Use Vim?
cocaine tbh if you can’t make something fantastix blitz out of your mind on coke you can’t make something good sober
This is all good advice
If you want to write effectively, you need to sit by a cafe window and look out at the street while it’s raining. If someone asks you what your book is about, sigh heavily, then say that it’s a think piece about furries in space.
Aren’t all furries in space time already?
Do a barrel roll!
I outline, then I write, then I update the outline, then I write. Then I ignore the outline.
The outline is like a scaffold for a building. Very helpful early on, but if it’s still standing when you’re done, you’ve done it wrong
I think as long as you’re constantly rewritting you’re moving in the right direction.

But when do you do the cocaine?
