so i wrote a story on wattpad a long time ago about dazai x reader any tips on being motivated and updating more

I love Dazai x Readers omg!! Be sure to link me to it later >:0

I’m writing a novel in my spare time, so I definitely know the “want to write, can’t,” feel big time @_@ but I have figured out ways around it!

Well you could google some TED Talks or help articles as to how to motivate yourself, there’s some really neat stuff out there! But also sometimes you just gotta ignore the fact you don’t have motivation and w r i t e – it’s hard at first but once you get into the swing of it you won’t be able to stop!

You could also write together with friends – my friends and I have writing sprints where we write as much as we can in fifteen minutes or another set time, then compare word counts and share what we’ve written for praise and compliments! If your friends are unavailable, sprint with yourself, compete your word count from the last with a newer, bigger one!

If all else fails, use Write or Die. It punishes you if you don’t write, trust me!

Or if punishment isn’t your thing, reward yourself! Tell yourself you’ll eat a candy bar or watch ten minutes of a show if you reach a certain set goal.

Above all, try to make it a habit! If you write every day it becomes easier, words flow more naturally, and you get more done if you write a little every day instead of a lot and then nothing for a long time!

If nothing works, then just visit me again ❤ I’ll gladly cheer you on and offer you the motivation and praise you need!!

How is that post ‘encouraging’? It is just people polluting a fandom with whatever crap their stupid little brains are vomiting, spamming with their oc’s. It’s just stupid. This is why no one can enjoy anything in peace, there are people like you and others that have to destroy everything with their so called ‘imagination’. Find another way to ease your frustration, you scums, and stop ruining the characters for everyone, okay? Grow up, low lifers

My first hate mail 😮 nice!
I’m sorry if everybody else is too busy having fun with their OCs to pay attention to you tho, anon! Seems like you’re starved for it and all

PS: might wanna try to sound a little less like a villain from an animated kids film next time you talk with me 😉

Guys!! I didn’t expect my support post to get so out of hand I only expected like ten notes maximum but no, you guys rallied behind me and agreed and I feel severely blessed by such sweet followers! Thank you so much that post meant a lot to me and I’m glad it could mean something to you too ❤

thank you fam QuQ

Thank you! You’ve been following and supporting my blog from the very beginning I’m glad my post could support you ❤

Such great support! My WIP doesn’t include their abilities and I’m sweating bullets each time I update a chapter, worried about the readers’ reactions. Your post is really comforting.

Hello sweetie! XD I am glad I could bring you comfort!! Keep posting them chapters your readers will love it – I know I already do!

I wanna cry ;-;

Shhh shshsh! Don’t cry… Come here, I will hug you

@sxlver-feathxrs​ yes. This is Banana Yoshimoto

A message to the BSD fandom:
You have an idea for an ability user? Just do it.

Self-insert or OC? Please, just do it.
You have a favorite author you want to include into BSD? Arthur Conan Doyle or Stephen King? Go ahead.

You got really into Japanese literature and found an author BSD hasn’t included? Pop them in, they’re yours now.

You’re from a foreign country and have a Brazilian or Romanian or Turkish author from wherever you know they’ll never include? Make them yourself.

You have a modern author you want to include, J.K. Rowling with a Harry Potter ability, or Rick Riordan with Percy Jackson? Yes, please!

Stephenie Meyer is an actual vampire like Lovecraft is literally Cthulhu, ability “Twilight” ? I don’t care if it’s cringey I love it!

Have an OC that’s not an author? Just somebody that you made up? Perfect, that’s fine too.

Want a character from a franchise that doesn’t make sense showing up in a crazy crossover? I can’t wait to see it.

A self-insert, it’s literally just you? Absolutely – you’re an author, even if it was a twenty page fanfic you never finished or a five hundred word essay you did in grade school, you wrote. You’re more than welcome.

And even if they have some unforgivable quality like they have two abilities or want to smooch Atsushi or Akutagawa or even Mori they’re more than welcome to do so! Please be super powerful, kick both the Mafia and the Guild’s ass, and kiss everybody you like. 

Draw. Write. Roleplay. Just create.

I’ve had so many people message me with “You know [x author] would make a great character!” or “Wouldn’t [x ability] be super cool to see?” And yet I NEVER see any material regarding them! It’s all the same type of content and I’m desperate for original ideas in a world so open for so many cool things to happen.

I once had a very lengthy conversation about Japanese author Banana Yoshimoto and how she’s the perfect woman for Kaiji Motojirou because she loves bananas as much as he loves lemons and I’d pay all of my money to see fanart of her but nobody treats her like an actual OC! Just an idea we toy around with but not one willing to leave our private messages.

There is so much hate in this fandom but if BSD taught me one thing, is the people who can create characters out of nothing are the most powerful people around. People who can be inspired by those who came before them are the most interesting people to look at.

Put your original characters into the universe. Put yourself into the universe. It’s fun. It’s interesting.

And if ANYBODY gives you any sort of crap for it just send whatever you made to me so I can praise the heck out of it and cuss whoever insulted you out. I love them I want to see them send them to me these things are FANTASTIC and I hoard them like a dragon, give me all the BSD characters I can get, ability users or nah!
