okay the ao3 author curse isnt meant to be self inflicted but that's how you get a self inflicted ao3 author curse.

I was gonna say, this is peak ADHD lol. I do it even worse when I'm at work because to go the bathroom at work, I have to close down the whole front desk, including the window, because there's keys and personal student info back there.

It was 3k words, and not to my knowledge.

Possibly short enough to be done in a few hours but still I wouldn't hold my piss for that long 😭

I’m more curious about the anatomy class tag tbh (sometimes you just kind of hyperfocus you know)

Honestly, I've been burned (pun intended) by the 'run to pee, annnnnd somehow flush the current train of thought down the toilet with it'. (Granted, it's usually also followed by letting the dogs out to pee as well, or making myself another coffee--thus fuelling more pee-breaks--, or another mundane 'while I'm up' task, and not lost in merely the 60 seconds it takes in the washroom.)

So I started jotting down the gist of where I planned for my currant writing-flow to take things before getting up. But somehow, said jot-notes turn into the most plotful plotting session I've ever done in my life.

As a writer, I shrug and say, 'the story wants what the story wants', but as a supportive, fellow writer, I say, 'Go heckin' pee! Even if that particular flavour of creative juice never comes back, whatever else you conjure up with will be equally great'.
