I have crafted so much lore for my world, I've spent actual years perfecting every detail of the characterisation, the worldbuilding, stalling and redoing and improving on multiple plotlines, and yet as soon as I try to write any of it down, my mind goes absolutely completely blank and my hand refuses to craft a single stroke. It's so weird. The most I've actually done is drawn a few characters.

Me resisting the urge to put "And" in front of my sentences despite it being grammatically incorrect

Yet as a sentence starter sounds alright

But-

Consider this-

And yet

Yeah, writing is tedious sometimes.

But there is the vertigo of a new idea, with doors open in all directions. There is the annoyingly distracting but euphoric constant arrival of further details, adding on, and on, and on. There is the initial rush of writing it all out, a big mess of everything you hear and see and feel happening. The slow and scheming puzzle of selecting which lines to show out of everything you know is happening. Feeling the impact of them. There is dedication and duty in tending to it, again, and again, and again, making it as close as you can to something beautiful. Gleeful joy in reading over it again. There is love for anyone who reads it. There is love, in writing.

Hello! Mostly here to indulge in the writeblr community and yap about worldbuilding and original characters.

And also to try and actually be a productive writer instead of I don't know, procrastinating for 3 months and losing interest??

Me sitting with well over 300 original characters with no idea how to use half of them but too attached to just discard them

[callmecircutlatory]

I wanna write more and indulge in more hyperfixitations and read more, but I have a Life™️ and unfortunately, that also means I I have no time to do any of those things without sacrificing my dear sleep and well I can't do that now can I

I just found the funniest font ever

Like. What is this. Why is this. Who is the target audience of this?

The longest fic I've written so far (4.6k) just got to 50 likes. I know it's not much but it's great to see some appreciation for something that I spent 2 weeks working on and only posted a day ago.

I just wanted to say how much I appreciate each and every one of you that likes my posts/reblogs my posts, especially comments, it makes my day to see how much you like the funny little goings-on in my mind.

heard someone say archive of our own should install a "dislike" button and I thought I should say this: no, there's absolutely no need for archive of our own to install a "dislike" button.

why? because archive of our own isn't tiktok or youtube or twitter/x where users can monetize their content. archive of our own is a nonprofit site run by fans for fans, which means every content — every fanfic — you see on archive of our own was made out of pure love and passion from the artists/authors.

ao3 authors write because writing about these characters is their happiness and passion. they write for themselves, but they were generous enough to share with you their creations.

they're not "content creators" the way tiktokers or youtubers or instagram models are. they don't "make content" for views and engagements that can be monetized.

so no, you don't get to "grade their works" unless they specifically and directly ask you to.

you don't get to "say what you dislike about their works" unless they specifically and directly ask you to.

you don't get to "dislike" works that are not made specifically to please you in the first place. you're just a guest in someone's house, a house in which they let you in because they were kind, you don't get to roam around their house and say what you dislike about their furniture. you don't get to roam around their house and say you "dislike their house".

of course, you can have your opinion about the house its host invites you in. but if it's a negative one and you find yourself not liking the house, the polite things for you to do is excuse yourself and leave without telling them you dislike their house.

and just because you personally dislike the house doesn't mean the house is "ugly" either. the house you dislike could be a favorite, most luxurious place to many others.

my point is, don't be entitled by wanting the rights to voice your disapproval of things that you get to enjoy for free. don't be entitled by wanting the rights to voice your disapproval of things that were made out of love and passion — things the artists made for themselves for fun.

it makes you look like an entitled jerk with main character syndrome. the universe does not revolve around you.

now repeat after me: don't like don't read. no one forces you to continue reading a fic you don't like. quietly leave instead of being rude to authors who write for free because writing is their source of comfort.

people are so used to contents that were made because it's a trend / contents like tiktok that were made with the main purpose of reaching high engagement and making profits that they forget sometimes things can be made out of love and be made just for fun. sometimes things are supposed to just be for people to enjoy, and if some people don't enjoy them, then they can simply leave without being unnecessary unkind.

Autocorrect: Dear LORD why do I have to be assigned to such a maniac? The creature is making me predict words like nothingburger and omnishambles and PERSIFLAGE instead of regular everyday words that a normal person uses!!!!!

Me looking words up on my lovely thesaurus because it is a crime to use the same two words in at least 5 paragraphs : heeehee look a synonym

Autocorrect : It has even gotten to the point where this VILE and UNCIVILISED homosapien has started to MAKE UP words to infiltrate my beloved storage!!!!

Me: Butbutbutbut my lustermanic and my rollerskatery... 😔😔😔

Autocorrect: GO TO HELL
