It’s like the tide going out. It goes out slowly, but it can’t be stopped.

Harry Potter with starkid subtitles part 4/?

The worst part about having watched too much Starkid during very formative years of your life is that your brain will quote it back to you at the slightest provocation even almost ten years later.

I love that in Catching fire Katniss comes to the conclusion the other tributes are trying to keep Peeta alive because they must see how amazingly perfectly wonderful he is. When in actuality that’s just her having a crush and everyone else recognizing that if Peeta gets hurt Katniss will go fully feral and unhinged and probably try to kill everyone and then herself.

Rewatching agents of SHIELD and so far Fitz is #1 best boy. He is nerd, he named his drones after the seven dwarves. Night Night guns. He only got dangerously mad at a guy who literally tried to kill him and the person he was in love with in an excruciatingly painful way while he was still recovering physically and mentally. He protected Sky when she was terrified out of her mind at what was happening to her. “There is something very very wrong with me” “no, no, Sky, you’re just different. There’s nothing wrong with that.” Then he’s still helping Simmons save her boyfriend from an unknown planet even though he’s in love with her because he owes that guy for helping Simmons survive. Also when his brain is messed up “he’s attractive, isn’t he?” “Well you’re my subconscious so I guess there’s no point in disagreeing with you.”

10 Tips for The Middle of Your Story

Is the middle of your story slow, confusing or unclear? Here are 10 quick things to consider when writing your story’s middle:

1) Have your character(s) try and fail. Progress and setbacks create a story. Wrap your reader in the suspense of if your protagonist will actually reach their end goal.

2) Weave in your subplots. Subplots should not only run parallel with your main plot, but also intertwine within it. Don’t forget or neglect them! Choose subplots that compliment or contrast your main story.

3) Make sure your protagonist has a clear goal that powers the plot. Don’t forget about your side characters, either. Giving them goals can add realism to their character while also impacting the story.

4) More, more, MORE obstacles. This could include:

- Physical obstacles (terrain, actions of the antagonist, wounds) - Mental obstacles (self-doubt, flaws, emotions) - Relationship obstacles (arguing, fighting, betrayals)

5) Do NOT make things easy for your protagonist. The middle is the time for struggles and drama, but also fun and games. This is essentially the heart of your story. When one conflict is solved, an even bigger one arises. Your protagonist must fall and get back up. Torture them, reward them and watch them grow.

6) Strengthen existing characters and introduce new ones. New characters can bring conflict, drama, solutions to the story. Overall, they make your readers curious about who they are and if they’re here to stay.

7) Show your character’s flaw in action. Put them in situations where their flaw only worsens the scenes. Overtime, they begin to realize their faults and will develop (positively or negatively) as you near the end.

8) Don’t forget about your theme. To keep your story consistent, never lose sight of your themes. 

9) Consider adding a ‘false’ climax towards the end of the middle. This is an event that imitates the real climax, but instead of things going well for your protagonist, they end up failing. This can be followed by your character’s “darkest hour”, where they give up all hope before regaining it and proceeding to the real climax.

10) Consider adding a Mac Guffin. An object, item or idea that motivates your characters. They need to obtain this object to reach their goals. Finding a key to open the door, piecing together a map to get to the treasure, etc.

If you're stuck on the next scene, summarize it in brackets and move on. [Insert connecting scene here] [there's a fight here] [lookup historical facts later]. It is most important to not lose the flow of writing.

[andrea-weasley]

if you don't know what to write, write for yourself.

write a story you would read but haven't seen yet; write people you would find interesting but have not met yet; write a place you would visit but hasn't been discovered it.

write for yourself.

writing tip

the second you say ''i'll just give my character a random name and change it later'' you're already doomed. placeholder names are no joke. you will be taken hostage

[andrea-weasley]

Reminder that whatever you’re writing, you shouldn’t give up because no one else can put the puzzle together the same way you can. It’s unique to you, so stop comparing yourselves to others. That completely eliminates the whole purpose.
