Okay so I’ve got this new Stranger Things fanfic idea and as everyone knows (as you can tell from the ever growing list of unfinished stories on my page) I am amazing at starting stories and just never finishing them for whatever reason. But for the first time ever, I don't know how to start this fic. It probably doesn't help that it's been close to two months since I last wrote anything at all, but I'm seriously stumped in terms of how to start and just generally getting motivation

@I_died_dead_ I actually watch the show or movie and write the dialogue for a couple minutes, and then rewind to watch the mannerisms and background visuals to see if i can expand on everything. With transcripts, i dont get any of the facial expressions or details in the scenes

@slinky_serk47 Do you use transcripts or do you just watch the show and then write the dialogues ?

@I_died_dead_ awww thank you! I do have a lot of ideas for where I want to take it and plot points, it'll just be me finding motivation to actually start writing since watching scenes and writing them and then rewatching the scenes to get everything right is pretty tedious
