    I can't read anymore
    I don't know about u guys but for me when reading Manga or a novel for some reason I keep thinking about making my own
    All the details keep working out themselves while reading novels or Manga which is distracting from me from the novels I like and I have to stop reading and try to distract my self with something else
    Ughhgghg
    I can't draw and I have questionable grammar skills (very questionable)
    How do I stop this!??!?
    And does this happen to u

    Just write, even if it turns out shit, just write it down.
    You'll either find a new passion or get so annoyed that you'll stop thinking like that.

    For starters, I recommend using a simple writing app, like Werdsmith, on your smartphone if you have one. The Notes app on iOS also works great actually.

    You need to handle the voices in your head better.

    Speaking from personal experience. Get it off your chest by actually writing/drawing one. When you realize how shitty it is, the itch will fade. :p

    Btw, you seem to have a lot of time on your hands.

    Happens to me, and I just tell myself "You can't write for shit so stop thinking about it" and it works most of the time. If it doesn't work, I just listen to music while reading.

    Dude, you have so many rants.

    I think it's time for you to take time to discover yourself. A lot of people rant because they don't take time to find what they like in order to change and so they are in a setting where they keep complaining.

    Yes, of course and it happened to me.
    How else do you think I started writing?

    I would say to not care about the mistakes at first, and once you finish, then try to edit it.

    If you have no luck with that, I could help you edit it when I finish with my finals~

    I'm kind of interested in what sort of story you would write ^^

    Just know that I can edit even the most unreadable stuff to something proper.

    But for pities sake, if your work is like one I spent a few hours for the description only, I will get angry.

    Thank God his prologue was pretty small or else I wouldn't have done anything, plus it was interesting.

    This guy's https://royalroadl.com/fiction/18026/ned-the-weakest-species
    Just read the comments of the first chapter to understand the work I put in editing it.

    Of course I never go back on my promises, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try to have a minimum of quality.

    Good luck on your exams ^^

    I'm finishing mines on 15th of the next month.
    When do you finish yours?

    Edit: plus the guy's next chapters aren't that well thought out.
    If I was in his place, I would add a couple more chapters between the prologue and the first chapter.

    Oh well...

    Finish on the 28th next month
    I thinking of starting with a classic
    It's an cultivation novel with my own twist
    Like more dramatic and stuff and deals with a lot of emotions that I think cultivators should go through
    And an Mc that isn't calm but more hot headed and messed up in the head
    Instead of alchemy I wanna go the blacksmith route

    Already like it~
    I would be really greedy if I asked you to write a small chapter as a test, right?
    A chapter with whatever inside. Not for first impression or anything like that, but to see how you write.

    Well, it can wait till the 28th. Don't distract yourself from your exams now.
    And as I already said, good luck~
