Your story ideas are so creative! How do you come up with them? Do you outline or just wing it? Any advice for new writers?

omg my story ideas are actually very cliche babe hahaha but well i usually just wing it. as long as i know what i want my readers to pick up from the book, i just dive into it. i'm the kind of writer who would randomly put a mysterious character in and he/she starts acting weird for some reason, and i'll have no idea what that reason is until i get to the part where the main character finds out hahahahahaha.

Ugh painting is so not for me. I am so glad I never have art again, I NEVER HAVE TO PAINT AGAIN AND WASTE PAPER AND PAINT HALLELUJAH! I wing it as I go, but I have like a generally idea what it is about how many characters there are and where I want to go. Wbu? And the sun or the moon?

Miksha
it depends on what i'm working on! :) usually, i just wing it and write and add random mysteries that even /i/ don't know the answer to haha it's like i'm solving the puzzle while i'm writing. with a few (like, one, hahaha) however, i plan (bc the mysteries came first before the plot), but it's never really a detailed plan so yeah hahaha
i am a creature of the night, so moon, i guess?????? you??

Sam! Please do not rewrite the TTH! The Story is PERFECT!!!! Me and my 4k+ followers on IG loves it. Promise! :)

hi babe i'm really, really flattered that you like thh the way it is, but i hope you understand that i'm going through my decision to rewrite thh not just because i want to, but because i genuinely feel like i need to.
the thing is, i got it easy. getting published here in the philippines is easy if you're popular on wattpad. they pick up stories and publish them based solely on its readership. it's all about the numbers--how high up the story's ranked, how many votes it has, how many people are following the author.
i know for a fact that i didn't get the contract because someone from the publishing house found thh on wattpad, read it, and decided it was a work of genius. no. wattpad sent them a list of the high-ranking stories. they looked through the list, analyzed the numbers, and picked which one they thought would sell well.
they may have skimmed through some of the chapters, just to check if the content is even readable, but no, they haven't read it for real because the quality doesn't matter. all that matters is that people read it, people love it, and therefore people will buy it.
so basically i'm doing this because if i don't, i will eternally feel like i don't deserve this opportunity. there are so many great writers here, better than i can ever be, that are not as lucky as i am, and if i passed this manuscript as it is, i won't be able to live up to the guilt i will feel for getting it the easy way.
i know that even if i rewrite this 20 or so times, it will never be good enough to merit a publishing contract, but at least i would know that i at least tried.
the only reason i'd been able to write it was because my readers didn't really know me. i was just some anonymous girl on the internet who happened to write something a lot of people read. but there are people i know in real life--my relatives, my friends--who will read thh, and the way it's written now, i don't think i can be proud to say "i wrote this."
so yeah. a lot of times i think of giving up and just turning the manuscript in as it is. it's hard--harder than i expected--to rewrite it, but i just don't think i can live with myself if i don't see this through.
i hope you understand. (:
