URGENT: HELP SAVE THE LIFE OF MY CHILD

50 tips for (fanfic) writing

have fun

write whatever is interesting to you, even if it won’t be interesting to anyone else

appreciate kudos when they come, but don’t expect them

appreciate comments when they come, but don’t expect them

if you wish you could just write that one scene you have in your head, do that. you don’t need to create a 30K backstory for it first.

embrace one shots

embrace drabbles

embrace writing your story out of order

rough drafts are meant to be rough. if you can’t think of a word, put in a placeholder for it and keep going. 

try not to get stuck on the little things

it’s okay if your readers can’t see the picture inside of your head

some people work well when they have a posting schedule. some people work well when they don’t. it’s okay if you don’t know which kind of person you are, and it’s okay if the type of person you are changes over time.

if a rule you created for yourself isn’t working for you, get rid of that rule.

make fandom friends. even if they don’t read your fic, they’ll cheer you on while you write it.

cheer on other writers you know. you’ll be cheering yourself at the same time.

no trope or genre is better or worse than another one. they all just appeal to different audiences.

quality and popularity are not the same thing, although they do sometimes overlap

numbers and statistics will never tell you whether or not you’re a good writer. they will never tell you how valuable you are as a person. 

you belong in fandom if you want to be there

you’re a writer as soon as you start writing things

writing and posting are two different things. your story is still worth writing, even if you never plan to share it

you don’t need to apologize for what you write or what you post. 

don’t worry about taking up too much space. the internet doesn’t have a maximum size. 

keep your readers in mind when you’re tagging your content. how could they search for your fic? if you use a tag, will be a reader who loves that tag be satisfied with how much it appears in your story?

if you have a relationship in your fic that plays a minor role, tag it in the Additional Tags section instead of the Relationship section so that people who love that ship don’t get their hopes up

be cautious when looking at bookmarks on your fic. they aren’t “extra comments.” that’s a space where readers make notes for themselves and each other, not for authors. 

you don’t need to know everything about canon before you start writing fic

you don’t need to read fic in the same fandoms you write for

you don’t need to read fic at all in order to write it

love your work because sometimes you’re the only one who will - and that’s okay

if your hobby starts feeling like a job, you might need to take a break before you get burnt out

if you get stuck on a story, you can always start a new one

if you fall out of love with a story, you can always stop writing it. if you’re worried about your readers, you can always give them a bullet point summary of where you were planning to go with thing. for a lot of people, that’s satisfying and provides closure

if you get hate, report it

use the tools at your disposal to block hate before it can come in (limiting or turning off comments, limiting or turning off asks, blocking users, etc)

try replying to comments sometimes. it can be a lovely way to make fandom friends

don’t be afraid to reblog your own writing posts.

if you get stuck on your summary, just write 1) who the story is about 2) what they are doing and 3) what problem gets in their way

notice when your writing makes you smile. that moment is a gift. enjoy it.

notice when your writing makes you cry. that moment is a gift, too.

even if you’re disappointed in how your story turned out, there’s something in there that’s fantastic. find that thing and focus on it and feel proud.

some ideas are ones you want to write. some are ones you want to read. if you ever have too many ideas to deal with at once, give some of the latter ones away to someone else. 

sometimes the things you write will be really personal. be careful about putting them where other people can comment. they won’t know how personal it is for you, and you need to remember that comments aren’t about you, they’re about the story.

remember that you can write series as well as stories. if the story is done but you still have passion or ideas, start a new one in the same universe.

enjoy the satisfaction of finishing a story. savour it. bask in it a little while.

don’t feel guilty about abandoning a story. not every story gets finished, and that’s okay

you can have separate accounts for different fandoms. you can have one account with a million fandoms in it. do whatever works for you.

sometimes writing is more important than sleep - but only sometimes

it doesn’t matter if that story has been written before by someone else. it doesn’t matter if it was written by you. write it again.

only follow the advice that makes sense to you. the rest isn’t important.

Kanej and Wesper's kids would be competing to see who could burn down Ketterdam first and then Helnik's kids would just be chilling at home gorging themselves on waffles.

@kyouka-supremacy you asked for frames of my gif and here's frames

Not all 40 of them but ones where you get the gist XD

Bonus: these didn't make the cut

Also here's colorless test I was doing

Sometimes a family can be a crazy smart illiterate heir, a bi boy with an adrenaline problem, a fabulous witch, the boy she trained who loves her very much, a sweetheart with enough sharp things on her she can legally be classified as a porcupine, and a traumatized and terrifying boy who needs to go to sleep

I've just finished to read "The house in the cerulean sea" and " Somewhere beyond the sea" by TJ Klune, and...

HOW THE FUCK I'M SUPPOSED TO READ SOMETHING ELSE NOW!

Like... The character, the story, every single line warmed my heart in a way I didn't know it was possible.

Now leave me alone, I need to reread them again.

so i was googling the grishaverse world building(as one does, do not judge me)

and i found out that kaelish people think that grisha blood has medical properties, so they kill grisha to drink their blood

my jaw actually dropped, mainly due to the realization that colm fahey is kaelish. so, um… sir. your people think drinking your wife and child’s blood is a good idea.

idk i think every grisha and otkazat’sya couple in the grishaverse is interesting bc basically everyone has weird, convoluted beliefs about grisha. but they’re able to see past those beliefs and fall in love anyway.

but anyway, here is my source:

Sometimes, I imagine what it would've been like if Jesper was present during THAT Kanej scene like:

Kaz: I would've come for you.

Jesper: That's what she said.

*The crow cane + Jesper's skull noises*

Just my little tribute to what really was the Greatest Show ❤️

(I can’t believe I spent 2 1/2 hours on this and didn’t realise there was a typo until after uploading, let’s just pretend that doesn’t exist)

Also, if anyone’s seen my post where I said Julian Kostov liked my Instagram reel, this with a message of thanks to the actors and to everyone who put in so much hard work to make something that means so much to so many people come to life was what I’d posted

Last night i hard this Dreams where the tripolar singularity, instead of cause wathever is going on in the manga, make all the ability users vanish in dust like in Avengers Infinity war.

Then Ranpo and Naomi restart the Agency recruiting guys with goods deduction skills, and one of them was really similiar to Atsushi.

Three years and half pass, and the Ranpo and Naomi lead the Agency, meanwhile they search a way to bring back everyone to life, with Gin, now PM new boss.

And in the three years Gin and Naomi fell in love, get married and they adopted a bunch of stray kids.

This could be a pretty intersting Fanfiction, but i have a lot of works to complete, so i'll try to write my random thougths about it on some posts.
