why does writing need to be a thing we DO, can it not simply manifest itself

3. how often do you reach for a synonym dictionary when writing? how about mentally? I will semi-frequently nip over to thesaurus dot com

16. do you first get in the “zone” when writing, or do you start writing and "enter” it that way? mostly the former for fic, and the later for RP?
Mouth Powers

often 'have a bunny' 'go for a walk while mumbling to myself' 'come back and bang stuff out' is a good Zone Acquisition process
Mouth Powers
@shipoftheseus
Mon, Feb 22, 2021 11:20 PM
but the truth is that I dont' have the discipline or energy to write fic if not in the zone now, but rp has little bite size bits and also social pressure to get me to sit down and start

20. if you are writing a wrong reply that’s not working out, do you save what you have to be continued at another date, or do you scrap it and rewrite? - I copy-paste it into a notes doc just in case I want to pilfer it for lines, but also start over
