30000th poster gets a cookie (cookie thread (Part 7)) (Part 10)

i’ve been trying to write something recently
i plan on it being short. it’s a little too self-inserty but it’s a decent starting point. i don’t really want or need anything grand.

dunno if i’ll stick to it but i’ll try
it’s about two siblings, and one’s trying to convince the other to stop being a “burn-out” and do something with all their talent

i had a problem about whether the burnout “should” return to society but i thought through it whilst trying to phrase that message and now my problem is solved

this is fascinating to me because whenever i write just about anything it’s with a specific ending in mind and i usually fill in the blanks from there

whenever i write anything i have a goal, but that’s not usually related to an ending
like “i want a conversation about if people should feel the need to help society as a whole despite how wronged they have been”

I guess I did change the ending a good bit on one of the passion projects i dropped but i think thats part of why i dropped it. i was only 9k words in but did a crazy amount of worldbuilding which i guess i could re-use later

hmm yeah i kinda dont think in those terms at all. my boyfriend does, he definitely likes when stories say something and are written for a purpose like that. I like stories basically entirely on their own / for their own merit which seems simultaenously basic and uncommon

or “what would happen if someone was left feeling better than everyone else and being better in the only way that mattered right now” (which i didn’t really accomplish as well as i would’ve liked, nor do i think was too interesting), or “how can i get these people to give me money”
