21. What’s a common writing tip that you mostly ignore?

Show don’t tell. I hate that idea so much.

Throw that shit right out the window cause it is such an over-simplification and highly circumstantial.

Like, yeah, with world building and exposition, its better to show. But its not a golden rule. If you have one character tell another a story, the understanding/dynamic/relationship between them changes and they can react to the events. But if it were to be shown in a flashback, all that nuance would be gone.

I hope this doesn’t seem narcissistic but for experience: the scenes wherein Baris and Hildy’s background is revealed/ hinted at wouldn’t hit the same if they were flashbacks because its all about how Roy and Ed react to it.

Telling is a valuable tool that people underutilize under the guise of it being lazy. Its not. When used right, anyways.

22. How many projects do you usually have going at once?

I have a lot of ideas toiling in the background, but proper? Only one or two at a time. I get hyperfixated on concepts though and can’t stop once I start.

27. What is the best writing advice?

Don’t ever force yourself to write. You are not obligated to do so.

Syl I would die for u. The Kurt to my Spree 💫🌈

Would he ever learn? The young boy thought not really as he had always been a reckless creature, brazen as he ran into danger only to stumble back out worse for wear yet, somehow, ever victorious. Were the costs of those victories worth it? The scrapes, cuts, and on occasion broken bones? Really, the young Hylian never much cared about those and considered them merely a part and parcel of what he chose to do, but the worry that crossed Mipha’s face in moments he had gone too far? That, if nothing else, left a sickly feeling in his stomach.

Though much rather that than the chastising he now faced as she soothed his hurts, chasing away wounds with words which are in equal measure soft assurance and deadly chides. She had a sharp tongue on her own way, a double edged sword which amused the boy to no end as he sighed softly into damp air of the domain.

I’m your only Hylian, he almost thinks to say because the others here didn’t count being so much older, each of them here for diplomatic this and that or because it was their duty to protect. Link… Link simply was– oh, he was many things! None of which so were crass enough to spew such words, and so he merely shuffled suitably abashed gently withdrawing his arm once her work was done. Seamless as ever. Mipha really was something.

“It… looked fun?” And really, hurling himself off a waterfall with the rest of the brigade? Fun as hell. The way his arm had caught something hard and painful at the bottom? Well… less so.

Would he do it again? Without a doubt.
