Figured this was the best forum section to post this in, even though it largely has to do with writing rather than roleplaying.
Roleplay? Fantastic. Easy, I can do that. I can do plotting in this context, I can do that back and forth. It's fun.
Writing by myself? Difficult. 2am: staring at google docs like:
Mind? Empty. Brain? Throbbing.
As a kid, I used to be able to concoct stories out of my ass and fill a whole notebook. Now? I have no idea how to plot. I'm thinking of writing fanfic (that isn't a oneshot, because I'm guilty of doing those) and the issue is that I'll have an idea that sounds better in my head. I have 0 motivation. Roleplay is 100% easier because you have a partner to bounce off of, and you're splitting control of the narrative so there's that element of "What's going to happen next?" that writing does not.
help?
