What's zup?

Week 1: Plot (canon divergence, canon au, etc.)

Tweaking the smallest detail can lead to all sorts of interesting scenarios...

So much of fandom culture is asking... what if...?

What if the trio went back to help save Harrow?

What if Claudia and Soren succeeded in capturing the Dragang?

What if Callum did go back to Katolis when they ran into Sol Regem?

What if Callum didn't discover Rayla survived Umber Tor until much later?

What if Callum or Rayla was infected at the Great Bookery?

What if Callum didn't tell Rayla he did dark magic?

the brand/type will vary so you could

You cannot hate your way into a better future. It isn't possible. Even and especially if your hatred feels justified. You cannot do it. Only love, unity, peace and forgiveness make for a better world.

A new option for anyone with a veeeeery long doc or complicated outline (and no desire to look at all of it at once) -

Collapsible headers! 

Turn them on in your Editor settings (Toggle headings), then click / tap the arrow beside any H1–H4 header to tuck that section away, safe and sound.

When you create a new header, just hit Enter, and it’ll become collapsible too.

Collapsible headers work in both the editor and on Reader links, so you can use them while writing, outlining, and editing; or to help your readers stay focused on one section at a time. We particularly love them for temporarily pretending the previous 86,491 words in a doc don’t exist (at least, not until the editing phase). 🙂‍↔️

Free for all, woohoo!

And another smol but mighty update this week: You can now change the email address associated with your account directly from your Settings page.

Just enter the new address via Change email under Account details. Done n' done!

Death of the Author is a term coined by Roland Barthes for his essay of the same name in 1967.

In brief: death of the author is the concept that analysis of a work of art should not be focused on the artist's intent; the artist's intended reading of their own work is just A reading and no more valid than anyone else's.

A good straightforward example of this in practice is the response to Andy Weir and Project Hail Mary. Weir is adamant that his work contains no politics but I would say that PHM is pretty clearly a story about climate change.
