Under Construction/Hiatus

something really crazy to me that i’ve seen happening more lately is people who make fan content and express Opinions about stories without ever engaging with the source material. what do you mean you’re in a fandom for a movie you’ve never watched

i am Thinkimg . about the Character. and listening to a Song. i a m sure this will not have repercussions

really humiliating trying to write horror like they went into the creepy house and there was a creepy ghost and the creepy guy with a creepy knife and everything was very creepy are you scared yet and thats like literally not how suspense and tension actually work but like all u can do is say well maybe something else was creepy?

love when ocs grab you by the shoulders and tell you something essential to their lore without you getting a say in it

some of you are saying enemies to lovers when you mean rivals to lovers and some of you are saying enemies to lovers when you mean enemies with benefits. but these are all distinct categories

"shipping and blorbofication are not inherently at odds with understanding a story's deep themes" and "some people can't grasp the themes of a story because they never learned how to engage with stories outside of the lens of shipping and blorbofication" are two statements that can coexist

Creating an OC who's fucked up because of their parents might seem harmless at first, but unless you're very careful about avoiding certain topics, at some point you're going to have to think about what their parents actually did to make them so fucked up, and now your OC's fucked up parents are also your OCs.

my writing gland is purple and swollen

Your friend’s unpublished fic idea is kind of a dead wife

i also want to read this guy’s dead wife

kitten i'll be honest daddy needs to learn how to have fun making art again or he's going to kill himself

writing is easy! first you must explain something you do not understand, you must express the turmoil within a person using dots and lines, you must craft a living world using hands that were never made to. and then you die

a long-running concern of mine regarding my series is that a hypothetical fandom will ignore the entire cast of characters in favor of the cishet white male villain. i have figured out how to stop this. i have to make him bald

waiter waiter more depictions of traumatised malnourished characters putting on some weight postcanon to show their recovery from the horrors please !!!!!!!!!!!

The reason most indie novels are written like the author is terrified of doing something wrong is because the overwhelming majority of indie novelists get their start by networking in the violent panopticon of the social media indie publishing community, which favours the people who are able to win at the social policing game.

sometimes artists worry if their art is actually capable of making the world a better place, or if its all just wasted effort. what you need to remember is: all art is evil, and the sole aspiration of the artist should be to maim as many onlookers as possible.

truly breathtaking just how many series would be massively improved if the author gave a shit about women
