WRITER PROBLEMS

sabyythe:

Don’t you hate it when you’re just writing along and then you think wait would that even is that possible how does this work oh shit RESEARCH

And the next thing you know you have twenty million tabs open about everything from hydrogen engines to the psychology of serial killers to the evolution of the pronghorn

miaman:

can you imagine

the next time someone asks you if you’re planning on having kids

and you say “no”

and they give that knowing smile and say “you will change your mind, someday”

suddenly a time portal opens up and like 60-year-old version of you sticks their head out and and goes “INCORRECT”

I used to hate it when people said that to me. They still say it to me, but now I get to say “Well, I had to have a cancer-related hysterectomy at 31, so I guess the gods agreed with me, not you.”

The look on their know-it-all judge-y faces after that is *priceless* >:D
