I've been wanting to write a surreal novel based/inspired by a Vaporwave album I love for a long time. I'm not sure if i should publish it, but im just sharing the things that i have on my mind.

    I'm most inspired when I'm away from my writing station. In particular, when I'm disconnected from everything, particularly in nature. The ideas start to flow, and I can just write them down in a notebook for later

        What stops you?

        Is it the act of sitting them down and actually fleshing it out? Do you have anxiety about the quality of the ideas?

        Have you tried just making bullet point notes on your phone when an idea comes to mind? It's very low stakes and hardly takes any time. I have a notes app full of ideas. Some of them grew into something bigger, others I just delete if they don't stick.

        When I write down a few bullets, I find myself adding more and more throughout the week

          Mostly sitting down and focusing on it. Keeping my focus on something for any amount of time is really hard for me :(
