Have you ever felt like reading and not writing?

[Nhatduongg]

What I meant is, sometimes in my mind I thought: Oh, it would be nice if a story were to have this character who is like this or this thing happens, would be very interesting or If only there is a fanfiction that is like this or crossover with this story but I don't want to write it, I just want to read it. Not because of laziness, but like, how to describe this... I don't want to predict the story myself?

Do you have that kind of feeling sometimes?

 

[SailusGebel]

Yes.

 

[ChaosGodOfJashin]

Yes.

 

[Erys]

Yes (999)

 

[Jailbreak571]

...
Yes.

It's just the fact I don't really have much time. I have school from 7 A.M to 2 P.M not including my other activities. I also have house chores and the rest is for homeworks. So I don't really have any time at all.

Doing that but am the one writing it. Since I can't find a story that fits my wants, I'll be the one to make it

I know, I will also write one in some situations (like this fanfic...) but most of the time I just hope that a story that I want will magically materialize.

As someone said to me before, I believe it was Ben,

"Be the change you want to see, young padawan."

What happens if the story you write doesn't fit your wants?

Many times. But well, since there are only a few of such stories, all that I can do is wish.

What happens if the story you write doesn't fit your wants?

I'm writing it to fit my wants in the first place

 

[Tempokai]

I'm in that mindset for 4 months now. Job became hectic nowadays, so it dries up almost all my energy, and I don't have energy to write. help

 

[ManOnAWaywardBoat]

Do you have that kind of feeling sometimes?

Yes and no, cause no author has been able to scratch that certain itch that's always there when you find and read a story like that. There always will be just that small something missing.

Same. Just curious, do you write the beginning and ending you want first? Cause that's how I always start, I'm just always stuck filling in the middle

 

[RavenRunes]

well, yeah...it would be so much easier if my story was already written and I could just pick it up and read it.

 

[SakeVision]

yes, but I don't do either in the end

 

[Okay]

That's the reason I write. That itch is just too unbearable. It's like that red notification dot on an app in your phone/laptop/tablet/computer that just pops out. I just can't ignore it.

 

[Zakuro]

Always.
