Try stepping away from your work for a bit. If you come back to it in a week or two, you'll be distanced enough to notice mistakes or discrepancies in the piece. It can also help with writer's block; stressing over ideas is actually counterproductive.
In case anyone needs to hear this today:
Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Your work is important.
Writers don’t write from experience, although many are hesitant to admit that they don’t…If you wrote from experience, you’d get maybe one book, maybe three poems. Writers write from empathy.

Love it! It's so Sadira!
Did @sinedra 's Sadira for a Halloween prompt. The randomizer said cute grim reaper and I was like...bet.
This might seem a bit over hashed, but always carry a small notebook or notepad with you for ideas. ANYTHING could give you an idea or inspiration. And you might think you'll remember it later. I guarantee that the best ones will slip your mind.
Well, if I treat this blog anything like my facebook then it'll be sorely neglected and sometimes forgotten (apologizes). But I'll try to do things like book reviews/recommendations, story snippets, or just rants basically.
I try not to post commissions on my main, because I know they aren't writing related, but look at the art my friend did!!
I'm so in love with how it turned out and so excited to run her in this campaign. My poor little, spicy firebender and cute little spark, Aki.
Thank you so, so much. This is my background and it's not changing anytime soon.
Please commission my friend! She's amazing and kind and awesome!
Got the honor of doing this little spicy fireflake for a DnD, ATLA themed. I present, Kyoko and her little fren Aki, from the Fire Nation! Thank you noodle, for supporting me. She was fun and I learned some things.
I still have commission openings if anyone is interested!
Kyoko and Aki belong to @sinedra
