Write Drunk; Edit Sober

[Milieva]

I'm still tempted by this title for a Video Blog series, but I can't for the life of me come up with a good way to do it. 

Should it just be nonsense writing rambles?

Should it be drunken writing advise?

Thoughts? Anyone?

• Write drunk, vlog your reactions reading over it while sober. "WHY DID I WRITE THIS", etc.
• Drunkenly vlog your thoughts about where you are in your project right now.

Though I think I like the first idea best...

I like the second one of yours added with the second one of mine.  Because everything I want to write about writing goes back to the shit people say that drives me insane.

If you want to have people responding (as you keep threatening me with? XD) then questions about.... writing stuff? Which you talk about and then ask other people about? As part of if?

OR SOMETHING I DON'T KNOW. ..........I might manage to audio-reply but you really might have to come back and FILM me to get a vid post from me. XD

I really want to yell at you guys, saying how unethical and bad that idea is.... Drunkingly writing and taping yourselves doesn't seem such a good idea, for fear of never living it down and or bruising your pride...
But seeing as I am under age and cannot drink, I can't really stop you, and shouldn't have a say in such a matter, held by you all.

Don't worry, Trin, ^^ 'write drunk edit sober' is a - Hemingway quote, I think? And doesn't mean 'write plastered' XD (I doubt the ability of a plastered person to film themself, heh.) (I could be wrong! None of my rl!friends could, anyway.) (...mostly they hug me and then tell me I need a bigger chest because I'm not comfortable to hug. WHY THIS ALWAYS HAPPENS I DON'T KNOW. BUT IT DOES.)

(read 'drunk' as 'uninhibited' as far as this goes, really? XD)

(Some of us don't drink, anyway~ *waves non-alcoholic-for-life-I-have-control-issues flag?*)

Oh, what a relief to hear, thank you Down-sama, I just was confused by the idea of drunk writing...

I'm lining up the tequila slammers. Writing drunk sounds fun, but I cannae drink at the moment :/

[Camisado]

I genuinely write all my best fanfics and university assignments after a couple of measures of rum or amaretto in cola. xD

While sleep deprived! Or just sleepy. My best essays were always mostly written at 2am... Mils pointed out it's pretty much the same effect on inhibition/being too critical of self and not going for it... (I think my version of the statement should officially be 'write asleep, edit awake'? XD)

I just also tend to end up posting in a rush just after I've done a thing and then look back later and realise I used the word 'corridor' three times in ONE SENTENCE and- heh. EDITING IS IMPORTANT~ (flashwork status notwithstanding!) (at least before things get anywhere more formal!)

I didn?t do what I was planning to do over the weekend, but my study is almost back together.  I need to move some books to another room while we wait for the book cases to actually go in in the living room, but the study looks almost respectable.

Which means I have an almost respectable backdrop for nonsense.
