Grumpy X Sunshine, I Hate Everyone But You, Four Core Female Group, Brother’s Best Friend, Troubled

taylor writing enchanted about her first encounter with a guy she develops a raging crush on is how i know she’s just like me fr

i know some people hate when books have playlists… but i honestly love them sm.

from an author pov, it’s my way of showing readers which songs were going through my mind as i wrote the story AND which songs best relate/convey the emotions of whatever my characters are feeling/going through. it just makes them feel more real imo.

it’s also just fun! god forbid a girl have a little fun with her writing!

thinking about the time when i re-read the first draft of the first piece of work i’d ever written for my characters (there are eight total main characters) and i completely forgot to include one of them in the first half of the story.

and just like that, his archetype was discovered.

he’s the person who’s often overlooked, leading him to feel a bit lonely and unimportant at times. the “forgotten friend” if you will.

and it’s so true because i really did forget he existed when i first created my characters omg😭 i swear i love him it was just an accident

it’s the anniversary of two of my characters today yall🥹 february 7th❤️🧁💜🌙

(yes i’m acknowledging and wishing them a happy anniversary, no that doesn’t make me clinically insane)

happy anniversary logan and rachel, mama (me) loves you and your beautiful love story❤️❤️❤️ u definitely have not been one of my fav couples to write bc that would be so rude of me to admit!!!

one of my fav parts about writing is that moment in the story where everything just comes together like pieces to a puzzle.

and it’s even better when it wasn’t even PLANNED. when you didn’t even know you were putting a “puzzle” together, so to speak, and then suddenly you’re like: omg there it is! a beautiful puzzle!

when you just trust the story and your characters to take you where they’re supposed to take you and they do!

one of the most satisfying feelings ever!!!!!!!!!!!!

me being so excited to *finally* be over this guy i’ve had feelings for for years only to develop a new crush within the next two business days is unfortunately so on brand for me😁…🫠 (my daddy issues are showing)

happy valentine’s day!!!!!!!!!!!!????<3

does it take anyone else a good minute to get immersed into their fictional world before you can start writing for the day?

like i need to sit in front of my computer with nothing but tumbleweed passing in my brain for at least an hour before i can really lock in.

especially after a solid writing break. i need to re-read the most recent scene i’ve written at least ten times to bring myself back into the character’s mind and feelings

help i’m inching closer and closer towards cementing a plot point that’s been planned for sometime now and i’m *dreading* officially writing it so badly omg😭

but as it is written… it shall be done😪 (i’m already sobbing profusely)
