WAH

It’s finally happening! I am going to try commissions!

Since I’m new at this, I’m only going to do three commissions to start, but if I’m confident enough to do more than I’ll let you know.

break up your paragraphs. big paragraphs are scary, your readers will get scared

fuuuuck epithets. “the other man got up” “the taller woman sat down” “the blonde walked away” nahhh. call them by their names or rework the sentence. you can do so much better than this (exception: if the reader doesn’t know the character(s) you’re referring to yet, it’s a-okay to refer to them by an identifying trait)

blunette is not a thing

new speaker, new paragraph. please.

“said” is such a great word. use it. make sweet love to it. but don’t kill it

use “said” more than you use synonyms for it. that way the use of synonyms gets more exciting. getting a sudden description of how a character is saying something (screaming, mumbling, sighing) is more interesting that way.

if your summary says “I suck at summaries” or “story better than summary” you’re turning off the reader, my dude. your summary is supposed to be your hook. you gotta own it, just like you’re gonna own the story they’re about to read

follow long sentences w short ones and short ones w long ones. same goes for paragraphs

your writing is always better than you think it is. you just think it’s bad because the story’s always gonna be predicable to the one who’s writing it

i’m here for asexual boys that are faced with the “boys are hypersexual” stereotype every day

i’m here for gay boys that were abandoned by their friends because they thought that they were going to hit on them

i’m here for trans boys that get asked “where did my little girl go” by their parents

i’m here for pansexual boys who are told that their identities are invalid

I’m here for questioning boys that are terrified of their own feelings because they’ve been taught that being different is bad
