big thanks, @tanjir0se, for this great list of traits -- not to mention, i hadn't realized that 1/2 exist (or exist as toxic)!

Disclaimer these are just a small sampling of some possible writer traits I’ve noticed either in myself or in fics I read. Also consider a rb for sample size !

@moonandris -- grand to make your acquaintance lovely thank you for sharing -- and encouraging myself to reblog

In case anyone is unsure how to get their writeblr dash more active...

People get busy. Life happens, and we can’t always be super active on our blogs in the ways we want to be (this is where I am currently). These are some things I like to do after I feel like I’ve been away from my blog for a while that also help the community and other writeblrs out. ♡

♡ Look through the latest writeblr introduction/active writeblrs/looking for active writeblrs/creative writing/etc. tags and make it a priority to  r e b l o g  everyone’s intros and latest wips and such. This helps introduce yourself to others as well as helping everyone else out in the community by giving active blogs more attention and interaction.

♡ Follow and interact with the people you see in the tags! We are the lifeblood that keeps this community alive and without us the writeblr community wouldn’t exist on Tumblr. Use that to your advantage!

♡ Write a writeblr reintroduction! Let people know you’re still alive and kicking and looking to be more involved in the community. Make posts that reintroduce your WIPs, characters, and more.

♡ Don’t be afraid to message writers and ask them about their WIPs and characters, as well as asking for others to look over your WIPs and see what they think of them. I can’t speak for others but my inbox is always open and I love chatting with other writers and hyping each other up! It’s the best.

♡  Participate in writeblr tag games and get to know the fellow writers in your community and what kind of genres they like to write in, what their writing styles are like, how often they like to write, what their favorite tropes are, etc.

♡ Reblog. Reblog. REBLOG. It’s great to receive a like on your writeblr posts but reblogging is what keeps our community thriving and helps others get more eyes on their work. It’s a great way for writers to support other writers, and really, that’s what the community is for. :)

Feel free to pm me or add more if you’ve got any tips. :)

Children Put Finishing Touches on Horrific Drawings of Their Moms for Mother's Day

With Mother's Day on Sunday, it means that kids will be giving their mothers an array of cards and drawings that depict them, most of which will be horrifying and hilarious. How kids see their moms will be on full display on Sunday as mothers across the nation see the drawings that their children have made for them. "I never knew my kids thought I was such a drunk," said Molly Dabney, who was drawn by both her kids drinking large glasses of wine. "I guess my teeth are brown and I have terrible posture?" said a devastated Noreen Malloy-Roberts who burst into tears upon seeing her 6 year old's drawing of her.

hello @theminisonproject ! I have recently undergone a MAJOR life change which caused myself to begin my own type of... metamorphic transformation via my own, "creativecatharsisproject."

These new pieces of poetry, happen to include a lot of new subject matter and re-imagination of traditional mythology and folklore - since reading Niktita Gill's works, I've developed a strong taste for, and a large interest in all types of ancient mythology, how it ties into our development and cultures and societies.

Not to mention my own additional interests that have grown exponentially in the last 5 years;

astrology, astronomy, horoscope and zodiac connections, developing interests in ancient cultures, such as Vikings and their beliefs in neopaganism, science based paganism, modernist wiccan beliefs, rituals and cultural practices...

basically, I am really just deconstructing the norm, in order to defy untraditional traditions of a dysfunctional family system.

My nationality and true DNA, ancenstry breakdown is unclear to me, but as far as I'm aware, I am Irish, German and Lebanese. The latter fact has led me to be drawn towards a better understanding of the ancient roots.

Volume 4 of Mythological Minison is waiting for your submissions!
