the gang's all here

nvm i kept drawing dinah and it helped

so much to chew on w how joint suffering Makes People after they get out of it. this is especially juicy to me if your characters were introduced to each other as a direct result of the horrors. you learned everything about me at my worst and against my will so how do i get better again if you’re watching. there’s no one else in the world who understands a fraction of what you know of me. i see your wounds beneath your shirt. you know how i scream. your face is in all of my nightmares. if anyone tried to take you from me i would be undone. no notes !

the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

[very clearly indulging the urge] im fighting the urge

the goal is to write well enough to get fan art of your OC

every since i was a little girl i knew i wanted to aimlessly wander a blighted landscape

kicking my feet. i love my oc

you gotta love a character with a purpose and you gotta love it when that purpose is "sword" or "shield" or "stress toy"
