L.L. Tibbetts No... F*ck no.
There needs to be a human experience involved. It needs to be grounded with human emotion while balancing creativity. Otherwise, it is just taking ideas without thought or process. We have enough empty shells running the country/ world.
L.L. Tibbetts There are a couple things.
1.)The research.
I learn so many new things. New advancements are always being made in the science community. I like to take little bits, twist 'em, and implement them in my own workings.
2.) Moments that get away from you.
I get to watch my characters grow, know them on a completely different level.
"You write them that way, duh." Yes... However, there are moments in the stories that can carry even the writer away. (WR&R: Ballroom mission, with Azure and Reid.) That whole mission helped spring so much more from me, made me go back and rework everything for the better. It has my heart.
L.L. Tibbetts I've learned "Best Seller"/ "Best Selling" means nothing... It's inflated by those with money for a sticker on their book. You want READERS.
You are a creator and destroyer of worlds and Gods. Write what you want to read. Follow what inspires you. And, FFS, be nice to yourself...
L.L. Tibbetts Ha! Not well... That's for damn sure.
When I'm not in a spiral of self-doubt and hate, (as most creators are at some point) I try to listen to new music, read new manga from the local library or plow through a game title I haven't beaten.
L.L. Tibbetts I've written R&R books 1 and 2, working on 3. Since CoG 1, I've been working on CoG 2-5. Same universe, same characters... Just smaller prequels.
L.L. Tibbetts Daydreaming to music. Been doing that since I was a kid.
