nice pair of characters who trust each other more than anyone else in the whole entire world it would sure be a shame if one of them betrayed that trust for the sake of trying to keep the other alive. it would sure be a shame to love someone so much you destroy them

Like to charge reblog to cast

"why did you stop writing your story!!! never stop writing!!!!!!!!!!!" well you see the character had to drive one mile to a new location and the sentence "she got into the car" was quite simply my undoing

one of the funnier parts of having online friends is when they casually reference something that seems weird as hell from your perspective and you have to go "okay so is this like a reigional/cultural difference or is your specific life experience just insane"

What if oxygen is poisonous and it just takes 75-100 years to kill us?

things about being a writer no one talks about

Naming the villain/antagonist after that one person irl who annoys the hell out of you just so you can like brutally murder/traumatise them :3

Commas are a drug and we are all addicted

When you've been doing this for so long you can type with your eyes closed perfectly yet make 50 thousand typos per page while having your eyes open

Wanting literally everyone in the world to read your story one day, but when someone you know asks to read it you scream and Panic

I have voices in my head, but in order to make it seem normal I give them names and make them do things in a word doc

Getting All the ideas the moment you step out of range of any sort of note-taking objects

Listening to your book playlist and creating a pinterest board for your characters and convicting yourself this is writing

24/7 always both "this work is terrible i'll never amount to anything" and "i'm a fcking genius wow i'm incredible" simultaneously every second.

I’m recognizing that I’m the exact target consumer for a charcuterie board

Gentle reminder, first drafts are for putting it all on the page and out of your head. First drafts are for telling. Later drafts are for showing. So keep writing that first draft. You've got this.

Reading a story you wrote when you were 13 is something that makes you realise that there was always something weird and lonely about you. Mostly weird.

[fandominstability]

The most annoying thing that happens while you're writing is... forgetting the word but knowing the vibe.

I am not lying when I say, I spent 5-10 mins repeatedly trying to grab something out of air just to remember 'reach out'.

Like why does my brain work like that.

scam texts aren't even trying any more. i have to pay my taxes? at latina fiesta dot co???

Not writing a fanfic nobody asked for but writing fanfic for yourself and that one other person who is equally insane about the idea

[fandominstability]

If ANY of yall EVER do this shit to me, im deleting every single fic out of spite.

If I ever catch one of yall doing this to another author and I know youre a follower of my work I will block you personally on every platform

None of yall are the fic police. I DESPISE genai. I think its an insult to art, humanity, and the planet itself. But aint not a single fucking person here qualified to pick apart a strangers fic looking for a gotcha moment to make yourselves feel superior. If you think something is ai you can ask the author (most are proud of the ai use and will just tell you straight up) if they say yes you have your answer and can warn people. If they say no and you dont believe them you block and quietly keep it between you and maybe a close group of friends. Spreading misinformation is DANGEROUS. And NONE of you doing this shit are anywhere near qualified to do it.

THIS GOES DOUBLY FOR ARTISTS.

A reminder that you can always reject canon if it sucks and write your own fix-it fics

[fandominstability]

editing is so funny because it's like "damn, i wrote 'before' two times within three paragraphs. they are going to stone me in the town square for this"

“eldritch horror beyond your comprehension” and it’s just a generic monster with tentacles and eyes
