Welcome!

My different writing personalities

Hello again!

This week, I planned to make a post following one week of editing.... but if I'm honest, this week has not been my best editing-wise, and I didn't really want to post it. So, in lieu of that, I've decided to make a fun, silly post about the different writing personalities I go through on a regular basis!

So, without any further ado, let's get to it!

1.  Aesthetic writer
  • Special keyboard
  • Dedicated music
  • Maybe some scented candles
  • A little bit of a ham
  • *Feelings*
  • Everything must be "just-so"

2. Hot mess writer
  • Two-plus cups of caffeine
  • Can't remember what I'm supposed to be doing
  • No focus
  • All the ideas as soon as I turn off the computer
  • Must find the *muse*
  • Just a five-minute break...
  • All the memes

3. Sick/ Chronic pain writer
  • All the orange juice and vitamin C
  • Heat pads
  • Neck pillows
  • Lap desk and cushions
  • Bit of a martyr complex
  • Tissues
  • Probably have to edit everything later anyways

4. All-together writer
  • Clean desk
  • Clear focus
  • Notes are perfectly organized
  • Must get work done 
  • Probably cleaning up after the hot-mess or absentee writer
  • No time for crap

5. Imposter syndrome writer
  • Self-pity
  • Easily set off
  • Always hiding in the corner
  • *What's the point?*
  • 0 motivation

6. Pet parent writer
  • Cat on the keyboard
  • Cat scratching the chair
  • Cat snoozing in his nest too cutely to be ignored
  • Cat begging for attention
  • My life is dictated by his whims
  • Only writes small sentences at a time
  • 0% personal accountability

7. Absentee writer
  • When's the last time I worked on my book?
  • Pretending to ignore deadlines
  • Guilt all the time
  • Will write as soon as I'm done with this...
  • Scrubbing windowsills to avoid book
  • Probably supposed to be editing
That's about it for this week. Which writing personality do you see in yourself most often? Share it below!

Have a great day, and keep writing!
