so yes i did go on hiatus from writeblr for a while BUT i did compile a list of recommended resources so writers, uh come get your juice!
https://lc-casey.tumblr.com/resources-appendix
(pasted below in full under the cut)
Resources Appendix
A simple list of the most useful writing tools and resources I have personally made use of as a writer. My top recommendations are indicated with a ‘🌟’.
Recommended Word Processors and Planning Tools
Scrivener 🌟 - excellent for containing large projects, as well as compiling research and character notes all in one place. My go-to for any project, and highly recommended. It is a paid product (one time, not a subscription) and is worth the cost.
Fantasia Archive 🌟 - great note-taking, planning and worldbuilding tool rolled into one. You can create characters, locations, languages and much more as separate documents, all of which can be linked together for easy reference. Free to use and download and able to support large-scale project notes.
Calmly Writer - a good, and cheap minimalist word processor. A much cheaper option than Scrivener and also a one-off cost. Does not support extensively large projects due to lack of pagination and navigation to other tabs. Can be used online for free.
Ellipsus - online collaboration and editing made easier across multiple drafts. Free to use and designed by writers for writers, with a staunch anti-AI stance. Free to use.
Worldbuilding Tools
Note: these skew towards the Fantasy/Science Fiction realm since I specialise in those genres, but these can be useful across a range of genres and styles.
Azgaar’s Fantasy Map Generator 🌟 - there’s a steep learning curve involved with this tool, but after years of use I simply cannot find a map-making tool that matches it. Azgaar is free, has a Discord server for support and guidance, and is highly customisable no matter what form your map is in. I use this for every fantasy world I create and never fail to find it’s generation tools and customisation amazing. Worth learning your way around, and completely free to use.
World Building Checklist by cru - the most comprehensive worldbuilding template I’ve yet found, centered around questions to spur your imagination. Too extensive to fully complete, but a good way to get thinking about more niche aspects of your world you might not have considered.
Food Timeline 🌟 by Lynne Olver - a great site which provides a timeline of when different foods were first introduced to human diets. Excellent for getting an idea of what food was common when and where. Also has a sortable index.
Culture Template 🌟 - incredibly intricate template for creating new cultures, including questions about food, society, government, traditions and more. 
Character Creation
Behind the Name - a good database of both real and fantastical names. Distinctions are drawn between names verified by the people behind the site, and those submitted by users. Names are sortable by gender, origin, length, and more. 
Fantasy Name Generators 🌟 by Emily - an excellent tool with a wide availability of names across cultures real and imagined, as well as those inspired by different sects of pop culture. Also contains generators for place/item names, and additional tools. The sister site, Roll For Fantasy, includes tools to help create fictional languages, calendars and more. Both are also very helpful for RPF/RPGs.
Family Echo - a site where you can create custom family trees. Helpful for stories defined by/heavily featuring families.
Masterlist of Physical Descriptors by Bryndonovan - a lengthy list detailing descriptive words for appearance, broken down into each individual feature. 
201 Character Archetypes - for those who like to work off tropes or archetypes, this is an alphabetised list of 200 of them. Helpful starting point to spur imagination.
Miscellaneous Tools
Tip of my Tongue - a great tool for finding that word you can’t quite remember.
Writing With Colour - a helpful tumblr blog with resources and advice on writing different cultures and races, with a large index of previously asked questions to explore.
Goblin Tools - an excellent tool for breaking down different processes and the steps involved. Type in whatever you want broken down into steps, and it will generate an ordered list. Great for processes or practices you may be unfamiliar with. 
Resources for Describing Physical Locations - good Tumblr masterlist of locations and different aspects to describe.
Editing/Typesetting Tools
Reedsy 🌟 - you can upload your projects and typeset them as epubs, PDFs and etc for free. Decent online hosting platform as well. Large projects can slow loading times down a bit. Marketplace/networking site to find editors, publishers and more.
(Scrivener and Microsoft Word also have exporting and document transformation options.)
Please let me know about any worthy additions I should make to the list!

I think the barber lopped those big naturals off. They don't call it a "clay surgeon" for nothing!

the little insights we got into veifei are so interesting to me — xia fei actually having a temper that vein has to assuage; xia fei seeing vein as warm hearted, and him being the very first person he thinks to call when in a bind...at the same we know xia fei owes a lot to vein, we know (from the character profile) that xf hates owing people favours. we know that in the grand scheme of it all vein is using xia fei in spite of also taking such good care of him
also there's something about the introduction of their dynamic: xf turning down food, because his boss doesn't like him 'sneaking snacks.' there's that implication of control under the guise of care, and the timing of vein calling at that moment too, reminds me of xf's pv — one as the watcher, the other being watched.
anyway all this rambling is to say veifei toxic yaoi goes crazy in excited to see what's in store for them...

Based off of something I saw on Twitter (PROJECT MOON)
Tumblr media
I know I said on Twitter I would be taking a small posting hiatus for mental health and school reasons but then I saw this and it spoke to me on a spiritual level this took way longer then I’m willing to admit
