Write-up of prompts & rules under the cut

“The Lies We Tell”

Hi friends!

For this month's prompt, I went a tad angsty. Sorry, some of the text is small, but there's a good reader view at the bottom of the post. It is, in fact, a pun (ju-"lie") ehem...please don't hate me for that 😅

As usual, please feel free to do them out of order, and I have an AO3 collection here.

So please enjoy and let me know what you think! ♥

Reader Friendly View:

I just want to catch spelling errors and accidental double spaces and repeated phrases and whenever I use the wrong too/to or affect/effect and shit. But no. They've shoved AI up the ass of every grammar checking software out there and now they all fucking suck and make the most random, obnoxious, nonsensical suggestions.

I get why people keep saying this (and other versions of it like "Use Adobe alternatives" and "Use Google product alternatives."). But here's the problem: I do not create in isolation. Even my own 100% personal projects are getting sent to other people whether it's editors or printers or beta readers and unless every single person in that train is using the same products, things can get wonky.

Libre Office and Word handle formatting differently on the back end, which can completely break documents if you move them back and forth between the two. So if I write in Libre Office but my beta readers are still using Word, when I send them a manuscript for review there's a good chance things won't look right and my beta reader will not actually be reviewing what I sent them.

“The Golden Hour Mixtape: Sun-kissed Melodies”

This June prompt theme was my attempt at combining a few aspects of what was most voted on in the poll. Since “Summer Solstice” won out, I tried to make it mostly fit to that, but also incorporated the “June in Tune” and “Honeymoon in June” since they tied for second.

SO here is my monster.

The following is a list of songs. I’ve created a Spotify playlist (link or scan the code) to hopefully make this easier for everyone. My intention was to create a Summery-feeling collection, but also have some lovey vibes mixed in. So there are love songs, summer songs, summer love songs, etc. So hopefully that covers all of our bases for those of you who aren’t experiencing Summer this time of year.

Pick lyrics you like if you want to base your work on that, use the song title, use your interpretation of the song, even just use the general vibe or feeling it gives you. Overall, it’s your work and these prompts are purely here to try to spur some creativity or get the writer’s block to go away.

I tried to pick various genres (although pop-ish music won out) and various time periods-ish. There are also some extra songs at the end of the month.

All that being said: making this was…a time 😂 I am open to any feedback should you want to chime in. If you liked it, I can definitely do something similar again. If it wasn’t accessible, let me know. All the things. If nothing else, I hope you at least found some new music you like or hadn’t heard before (I did).

As usual, prompts can be done in any order and at any time. There is an AO3 subcollection linked here should you like to post it there (not required). Please feel free to post to Tumblr as well, or anywhere else that suits your fancy and tag #TropeVarietyHour. While I’m not gonna track you down on other sites, nor is it required, if you don’t mind, it would be great if you could link back here or credit somehow if you use the prompts! The AO3 collections stay open, so if you decide to do a past month’s prompt, feel free to submit it to that month still.

All fandoms and original works welcome! Any type of works as well, not just written.

Thanks to all those who continue to participate! (I feel out of breath just typing all that) There is a reader friendly view below the image if the cursive is hard to decipher.

For any questions, please check the FAQ section first, then don’t hesitate to submit an ask. For AO3 collection questions, there is a contact listed on the site and an FAQ.

Enjoy! ❤️

Reader Friendly View:

The first is this wonderful script that will automatically add key information (that you choose) like author, title, summary, etc to your bookmark notes so you at least know what got deleted.

The second is this incredible bulk downloader for AO3. Input any AO3 page (such as your bookmarks page) and tell it what format you want to download in and it will just.... DOWNLOAD IT ALL!! I run it every few months so that I have all my bookmarks downloaded in my preferred EPUB format. That way I know I always have my favorites downloaded in case they ever get deleted.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/ao3-saver/

It automatically saves evey fic you visit so you have a backup if the fic is ever erased. No more mysterious bookmarks lost forever.

I'm Brazilian, and next year I'll legally be an adult (yay!). So far, I've updated all my apps normally, and none have asked me for age verification, because I'm older than the minimum age to use them.

If my memory serves me right, it took a while for the law to be enforced. Websites/apps rated 18+ ask for your ID or a photo (e.g, porn sites that you log in, but in the anonymous mode they don't ask), websites/apps that aren't, don't (e.g., Instagram).

So please everyone, don't be alarmed. I know the situation isn't cool, but so far not all websites/apps ask you for that.

And I saw people cheating the verification with ✨ 3D game characters ✨, so we know the ai system in shit.
