I hate it here so I will go to secret gardens in my mind (my ocverse)

Who’s afraid of little old me?

You should be…

[goldenlilium-ocs]

Me @ Cormac McLaggen, simply a high school player with too big an ego: You’re awful. I hate you, I want to set you on fire

Me @ Vigilante, an actual murderer and possible psychopath: I love you. You’ve done nothing wrong ever. You’re just a lil guy

Honestly? My main piece of advice for writing well-rounded characters is to make them a little bit lame. No real living person is 100% cool and suave 100% of the time. Everyone's a little awkward sometimes, or gets too excited about something goofy, or has a silly fear, or laughs about stupid things. Being a bit of a loser is an incurable part of the human condition. Utilize that in your writing.

the thing about jily is that yes james is absolutely besotted and a lover boy but lily is the original lover girl. james is extremely charming and funny not to mention INCREDIBLY intelligent and you’re telling me lily wouldn’t like him for the first few years??? pls if anything she would be so annoyed at herself because everyone is falling over stupid over james and co. because they’re all grossly attractive in their own ways and she wants to be better than that. but then james makes his interest so clear it’s almost ridiculous and it’s just too good to be true isn’t it?

lily would have to hide her smiles until she was safely hiding behind her curtains when james made a silly go at a love confession in the common room. she would wear her hair down every transfiguration class to hide her blush because james would make the best jokes with minerva teaching while still getting every exercise perfectly because that was His subject. every time he asked her to hogsmade her heart would beat so loud she could barely hear her own voice as she rejected him. because of course she would have a sense of injustice over her childhood best friend that she is trying to cling to so hard as she watches him drift away in front of her eyes. but she has seen so many times how truly good and gentle james is with the people he deems worthy. so of course she is going to appreciate his affection. and of course she has loved him back the entire time. but she is the brightest witch of her age and she has to have some pride, doesn’t she? james needs to sweat for it a little, but it has never been a matter of lily loving him back, just a matter of letting herself love him and be loved by him openly.

I miss my Star Trek oc

Honestly you people need to start thinking about fanfiction like a restaurant.

You do not have to order the salmon if you don't like salmon.

If I order the salmon, I am not forcing you to eat the salmon. Nor are you obligated to order it just because I am.

If we are going with the intention of sharing food, that's okay! I happen to like steak too. I don't need to order the salmon. I'm capable of going to the restaurant and not ordering the salmon. We can order the steak.

There is a whole menu of things you can have. The salmon is just an option. We can even find a restaurant that doesn't serve salmon at all.

Yes, I know some people are allergic to salmon. But I'm not going up to them and force-feeding it to them. The only way my salmon can hurt them is if they come to our table and take the salmon.

The only way you'll expose yourself to my salmon and the unpleasantness of eating it is if I tell you my dish has salmon in it and you insist on having a bite anyway.

You're midway through your meal and realize it has salmon in it? Okay. Lets send it back and order something else. Maybe you didn't see it in the ingredients list. Or maybe the chef didn't put it down.

Its really that simple.

Sending a chunk of your fic to your buddy, and waiting for them to read it:

[goldenlilium-ocs]

There’s a fic on fanfiction(.)net that I’ve kept tabs on for years to see if it’s been updated or not. While I’m no longer even in the fandom it’s written for, it just has one of the greatest storylines I’ve ever read. Last time it was updated was 2011.

The other day, I decided to reread the entire thing and leave a very in-depth review of what I thought of each chapter. I also mentioned how I started reading it when I was 13 and am now 21, but always came back to see if it was ever finished because I loved it so dearly.

Today, said author sent me a private message saying that her analytics showed that the story was still getting views even after all these years, but no one ever bothered to leave reviews other than “update soon!!!”, so she never felt motivated enough to finish it. She said that me reviewing every single chapter with lengthy paragraphs made her cry and meant the world to her. She also mentioned that she felt encouraged to write the two remaining chapters needed to complete the story and that she would send me a message the night before she updates the fic.

I’m literally sobbing. I’m so excited :’)

Please always remember to leave a review when reading fanfiction!!! It means a lot to a writer.
