I made a Discord server for fanfic writing! Fandoms included so far are:
- The Adventure Zone
- Jacksepticeye Egos (not RPF)
- Welcome to Night Vale
- Night in the Woods
- Homestuck
- 17776
- Undertale
- and DeltaRune.
We also have an “other fandoms” category and channels for original work. If you like small fanfic writing categories and writing for any of these fandoms, please consider joining here!
My latest fic was inspired by one of the prompts on @reverseblackholeofwords ‘ prompt list! Here is the link to my fic: https://archiveofourown.org/works/16574102
Keep in mind it is a DeltaRune fic, so don’t read unless you’ve gotten at least as far as Seam’s shop.
Underlined PSA
Figment, the recently closed writing website, has just launched (after a long delay) their long-awaited successor to figment known as Underlined, where users can post their work and receive feedback, supposedly.
DO NOT USE UNDERLINED. DO NOT POST YOUR WORK ON UNDERLINED.
Underlined’s terms and conditions contains a clause stating that the rights to all your work that you post on their website belongs to them!!!!
Underlined belongs to Penguin Random House. This is an extremely dirty trick for them to play on writers, especially young writers and children, who come to the internet to get feedback and will lose the rights to their work. Please boost!!!
For my writing friends looking for an online writing community, DO NOT USE Underlined.
I went to confirm @greater-than-the-sword‘s post, because seriously publishers are still pulling this garbage? And yes, they are. If you want to check out the full terms and conditions, have at it. They are full of writers’ nightmares, a few of which I’ll highlight under the cut.
Keep reading
Be aware guys
As someone who used to use Figment, I would really strongly recommend NOT using Underlined. DO NOT USE Underlined.
@thebibliosphere signal boost for writers
Ugh, how is this still a thing.
Publishing for Fun and Profit
So there was a list going around tumblr for a while that made it to my dash of literary journals that accept open submissions (and will pay!), but upon inspection about half of them were closed indefinitely, and I found quite a few other places that looked interesting through further research, so I wanted to post my own list.
I tried to focus on things that paid professional grade (at least 6 cents per word), were friendly to speculative fiction, and specifically encouraged diversity and writing about marginalized groups.

Introspection
To preface, I don’t usually write for Detroit: Become Human. This idea was suggested by my friend @toadscools and was too good to pass up.
Emotional expression was a tricky subject. Androids had faces, sure. In theory they could mimic human expressions, but they never looked quite genuine. Because of this, the deviancy program unlocked some unexpected emotional cues.
After going deviant, Connor slowly became aware of his emotions and reactions. When he was excited for a case, he would do his coin tricks, or, when Hank confiscated all the coins, he would fidget with his fingers. When he was frustrated about evidence that seemed just out of reach, he tugged on his ears. When Connor was nervous about an interrogation, he hummed a certain tune he knew instinctively. Before long, Connor knew how to recognize his behavior and label his emotions accordingly.
Hank had always had more trouble identifying his emotions. He insisted that being a human for as long as he had been was far more complicated than being a deviant android for a few years. Most of his negative emotions were expressed as anger or apathy, even when he was scared.
One day, Connor and Hank were going to interrogate a suspect when Hank caught himself humming Connor’s tune before Connor did.
This android really had changed his life, hadn’t he?
As a writer, I just want to say that I appreciate likes and Kudos. Yes I love comments and reblogs, but likes and kudos are good too! Because that means someone read my thing and wanted to tell me they appreciate it! Thank you to everyone who interacts with my writing in any way.
why the fuck does english have a word for
but not for “the day after tomorrow”
???
Because you’re not looking hard enough! ;)
Overmorrow = the day after tomorrow
Ereyesterday = the day before yesterday
Example: I defenestrated my brother ereyesterday. I shall defenestrate my sister overmorrow! Because I hate my family and also windows.
english has some of the best examples of stupidly specific words, tbh
Rhotacism (n): excessive use of the letter “R”
Lingible (adj): meant to be licked
Whipjack (n): a beggar, specifically one who is pretending to have been shipwrecked
Yerd (v): to beat with an object with a stick
Roddikin (n): the fourth stomach of a cow or a deer
Balbriggan (n): a type of fine cotton, most often used in underwear
and my personal favorite
Cornobble (v): to slap or beat another person with a fish
This makes the English nerd in me extremely happy.
Who even made these words I’m going to cornobble them
My dick is lingible
there is a dictionary that has all of these stupidly specific and obscure words and a whole lot more. It’s absolutely beautiful.
there’s going to be a difference sometimes between the stories that you find masterfully crafted and the stories that mean a lot to you personally and those two things don’t have to overlap completely or even at all to make that story worthwhile
and that’s a good thing to remember as a reader/viewer/etc but also as a writer because even if whatever you ultimately write is full of mistakes, someone out there is gonna take it so to heart that it fundamentally changes them as a person. and that is. Huge.
Like! I made a list of the top ten stories that have influenced me as a human being and only 2 or maybe 3 of them are things I would hold up as examples of narrative mastery. But I cannot imagine who I would be without the other 7!!
Please write your story and share it with the world! Someday someone will not be able to imagine a world without your story in it and they’ll be so grateful you brought that wonderful, meaningful thing into their life
Also while I’m on a roll, a story doesn’t have to have some deep hidden meaning or philosophical theme for it to be meaningful. Sometimes a story is meaningful to someone because it was fun and made them happy at a time when they really, really needed that. Or because it was an incredibly intriguing world that inspired them to dream. Maybe they’re another writer, and they see in that thing you wrote the exact kind of story they want to tell someday.
There are many ways to be meaningful
This is true.

My Wolf 359 fic is completed! It’s three chapters, rated T for mentions of violence. Check it out! https://archiveofourown.org/works/14378070/chapters/33197028

Lucretia had definitely had taako’s elderflower macarons before the candlenights episode like they’re one of his signature recipes and she had loved them for 100 years
BUT she also knew that they were his own, secret recipe that no-one else knew so she was like ‘hmm ok if i eat one i have to be sure to react like i’ve never had one of my favourite macarons before, if he thinks i’ve had them before he’ll get suspicious, ok Lucretia just… act… natural’
& long story short that’s why ‘hot diggity shit that is a baller cookie’
Lucretia, mentally: nailed it
Taako: haha the whole recipe is in my book!!
Lucretia: …
Lucretia: this pretense has been wholly unnecessary
*later*
Lucretia: *leafing through a newly purchased copy of taako’s cookbook trying to commit to memory which of his recipes she can and cannot admit familiarity with* okay okay okay this is fine okay
*still later*
Lucretia, sweating: *pointing at recipe for a dish taako made almost every week on the starblaster* hey taako… this looks… good… could you make it??
Taako, drinking a milkshake, only half listening: do i look like i work for free
Magnus: why don’t you just make it yourself there’s instructions right there
Lucretia: um
Taako: the director’s a terrible cook
Lucretia, panicking: how do you… know that..
Taako: i can smell it on you
so I want to ask you as a writer. sometimes i really want to comment every chapter and every drabble and ramble in tags and reblog it.. but i am afraid that writers might think about me as an annoying person or worse stalker. what would you think?
OH MY GOD LITERALLY DO THIS
THIS IS THE FASTEST WAY TO A WRITER’S HEART AND WHEN I GET RAMBLY TAGS OR REVIEWS ON EVERY CHAPTER OR REVIEWS WITH EVEN THE T I N I E S T DETAIL IT MAKES MY DAY!!!!
it is not stalking i promise!!!!! everyone loves that :D
Every writer I know (and I know a lot of them) would absolutely adore this. I mean, you’d be our favorite person, or at least within the top three. We would gush to our fellow writers about you.
No writer is ever going to say, “Ew; will this freak stop complimenting me all the time?? It’s creepy.”
THIS THOUGH
also, sometimes you might feel self-conscious because after all your comments, you didn’t get any reply from the author? Don’t feel bad about it! It’s (most probably) because:
1) the author is shy
2) doesn’t know how to respond to comments/compliments
3) is busy
4) doesn’t really want to interact with readers (like, they just want to post their stuff and that’s all, and that’s just…their choice; every author interacts with the readers/fandom differently)
5) 3725298659825892 reasons other than they think you’re a creep/stalker
P.S. I’ve made some of my best friends in this fandom by fangirling over their writing (or the other way around). Keep doing your thing, Anon :)
Good point; I think the majority of the mutuals I’m most chatty with came to me through writing–either theirs or mine. Reaching out to authors is a good way to make friends.
It’s the start of the semester, which probably means I’ll have time and motivation to write before class gets too hectic. Send some asks! A prompt, a question, something from an ask game, anything!
