When you read a good writer, it feels like they have everything lined up in their head, all the themes and plotlines and character arcs, and they're just spooling it out for you in a controlled way to keep you hooked. For me that's the part I can't seem to do, keeping everything in my head so I can spool it out in an organized way. I can come up with characters and themes and ideas, and I have a mature perspective on the world, and I can feel things, but the mechanics of actually fucking writing just seem to elude me.
Can practice fix this? Anyone with adhd experience this and get past it?
I can get words out if pressed (although that too is a struggle), but the stuff that comes out just seems too disorganized. I don't want to ramble. I want the writing to be dense with all the threads and ideas in my head, so it feels like I'm going somewhere with it and every word helps build up to something. That's the kind of writing I really like to read. It makes for good prose too.
but writing faster like you suggest might help fix that too. It's easier to hold stuff in your mind for a shorter period of time lol.
