My stupid novel has taken years to write because I'm so undisciplined. Does that count

autism world building thread incoming

my life

I never had one specific world or setting that played out over years but hundreds which would usually become boring after a time with dbz-like exponential power levels.

they were more vivid and I could only really visualise it when performing a repetitive action - say kicking a ball against a wall, or dribbling a basketball.

i do that every time i see a cute girl on the subway

I spent a few years creating the foundations of a fantastical world with which to create fantasy stories from, writing a comprehensive series of notes about most aspects.

The trouble is I realize most of it is pointless because shoveling in lore would clash with my writing style. I personally don't really enjoy fantasy books that try to drag you into their world, rather than using the plot or a character element to do it for you.

Yes but, as it is a private escapist fantasy, revealing anything would ruin it.

I used to have entire stories play out in the Crash Bandicoot universe in a few settings in my head every night as I tried to fall asleep as a kid. This happened almost every single night, I'd be up for an hour or two. It felt longer. I had trouble sleeping, so I mentally fan fic'd before I realized what fan ficing was.
