WRITING ADVICE!!!
"Pain is Plain."
Let's face it; saying " it was very painful," falls just a little flat. You want something that will empower your writing, enrichen it. Using words that vividly describe a situation or feeling will help your readers "visualize" the scene. It will make them wonder " How is the main character going to survive this?" Or, if the hero is inflicting rightful pain on the antagonist, it will cause them to cheer and anticipate what their favorite character will do next. But none of this will work if you describe a deadly wound as "It really hurt." Here are some alternate words for "painful."
Excruciating
Seering
Stabbing
Ripping
Blood-curling
Paralyzing
Unimaginable
Writhing
Twisting
Shot
Shredding
Tearing
Agonizing
Indescribable
Intolerable
Harrowing
Torturing
Torturous
Aching
Cramping
Dull aching
Burning
Cold sensation
Electric shock
Nagging
Intense
Pins and needles
Sharp
Spasms
Splitting
Tender
Throbbing
Tingling
Tiring
Exhausting
Acute
Burning
Chapped
Nauseating
MILD PAIN: PAIN YOUR CHARACTER NOTICES BUT IT DOESN'T DISTRACT THEM.
Pinch
Sting
Smart
Stiffness
MODERATE PAIN: PAIN THAT DISTRACTS BUT DOESN'T TRULY STOP YOUR CHARACTER.
Ache
Throb
Distress
Flare
SEVERE PAIN: PAIN YOUR CHARACTER CAN'T IGNORE.
Agony
Anguish
Suffering
Thoes
Torment
Stabbing
OBLITERATING: KIND OF PAIN THAT PROHIBITS ANYTHING BUT BEING IN PAIN. (AND DOING ANYTHING TO ALLEVIATE IT.)
Ripping
Tearing
Writhing
Got other ideas or something you'd like to ask me? Go right ahead! I'd Love to hear from you!
Actually, let me add a few things to this because I love writing and describing pain, SO-
Break the rules a little. Personify the bitch. Even if you don't use words that have intrinsic painful connotations, make it invasive. Show the path of the shock of sensation. Tangling up their veins and burrowing through their muscle. Spiking tight around their bones and ripping up their throat.
Just play around with it - like. Wtf does 'spiking tight' mean? Usually we wouldn't say 'spiking around', but I sure tf just did because it felt right. Go with your gut and have fun with it.

THE OG 9-1-1 TRIO THROUGH THE YEARS
Someone made the joke about Buck being passed around each 118 house like Hoover for his recovery
But I suggest the opposite
Every single person in the 118 just starts showing up at his place unprompted with increasingly ridiculous excuses.
“Cap cooked too much lasagna and we didn’t know what to do with the leftovers”
“The babysitter canceled, can I drop Jee here for half an hour while I run to the bank? We can have some tea when I’m back!”
“Can I use your dryer? Mine broke last week”
“I thought we were watching the game today, what do you mean? Yes, I’ve always been into rugby”
“Chris has to do research for his homework and our wifi wasn’t working. You don’t kind, do you?”
I want this man to be so loved that he’s sick of it. I want him to not know a moment’s peace. His entire family is made of caregivers and he will suffer their hovering because they almost lost him.
I wanna talk about that insane man spending a week in a hospital without showering or sleeping and living off soy milk and clearly thinking “I never got to tell him. I should have told him. If I could go back I’d tell him” and then he finally gets the chance to talk and what actually comes out of his mouth is: bzz bzz.
Buck surviving the lightning strike and going back to work means that Hen has to go to that bakery (she goes to the same one every time) to get him a 'welcome-back' cake (one which will have a terrible pun written on it in icing, something like "we're not shocked you're back"), and you just know that every time she walks into that bakery the staff drop what they're doing because they just know that it's going to be something absolutely wild
Head baker coming out of the kitchen to hear what happened this time
this week has started off TERRIBLE❗️❗️
local depressed woman newly surprised every time life is depressing
shadow and bone really said “im gonna give you the crows you deserve this season” and they did, in all their cutthroat, dramatic, angsty glory
Don't care. Athena brought two kids into the marriage and Bobby brought Buck. BITCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I fully blame SJM, Casey McQuiston and Rainbow Rowell for my unrealistically high dating standards because trying to find a soul like the ones they write in rural UK is like trying to find a fantasy ya series without a tall man with dark hair
