BROKEN HEARTS ON CANVAS [complete] [again!]

*resurrects from 5-plus-year hiatus* 

Story time: I found my old laptop in my grandparent’s basement over the weekend and the original BHOC fanfic I wrote back in high school was in it! I’ve posted the rest of the story -- that I thought I lost, which is why I never re-posted the entire thing again -- and it’s available on fanfic. 

Read Broken Hearts On Canvas (original) on FF if you’re one of the incredible readers who has messaged me asking for the complete story over the years.  

Thank you for continuing to read my little story and your amazing messages of support!

I’m in love with this

That’s why he’s kissing me, Hermione thinks, afraid and breathless and excited all at once. Because no one else can see him like this, in his real form. Because I’m his, so he can hurt me without getting in trouble. So he can kiss someone the way he really wants to kiss someone.

And Tom wants to kiss someone so that it hurts.

There is no such thing as a bad first draft!

“But the wording is so awkward and some scenes just stop in the middle and–” Allow me to stop you in the middle, buddy. A first draft doesn’t need beginning-middle-end the way the finished product does. 

It can be a few dozen pages with broken sentences and a plot hanging by a thread. 

It can have characters who vanish halfway through, because you realised you didn’t need them, or you weren’t sure who they are, or you just fucking forgot they were there.

It can change genres, it can head-hop, it can swerve right into “what the fuck” territory and pop out in goddamn Candyland as if there wasn’t a literal massacre on page 66.

Is the draft there? Are there words?

Then it’s fine! It’s done its job, and you’ve started yours.

We joke and complain about them being terrible but let’s not forget that all a first draft needs to do is exist.

All great art begins with a huge mess. 

Your first draft is proof that you’re on your way there. Be proud, dammit.

sometimes i really love my fics. i wrote that because i wanted to read it. i love it. nobody visits my fics more than me. they remind me that i’m a hard worker, that i created something. it’s mine and i cherish it and love it because it’s exactly what i wanted so i made it.

and other days i’m crippled by self criticism and hate everything and can’t bear to look at my own work because i know it’ll never compare to the greats

but i live for the days i love my work. because it’s mine, and i made it. i didn’t wait for somebody else to make what i dream about. i went and did it myself.

so don’t feel like your work is awful

it’s the stuff you dreamed about. it’s the stuff you decided to make a reality. it’s not about quality, or poetry, or how perfectly your sculpt your words or keep it so deeply in character; because it’s what you dreamed and it’s what you wanted to see, so you made it.

keep writing; it’s yours, and you made it. and if you want to continue to sharpen and improve yourself? then do it. it’s all yours and you can make it whatever you want.

keep writing.

This Muslim Woman Is Redefining Hijabi Fashion In Japan With Her Gorgeous Instagram Photos

“I want to show that Muslim fashion is something that goes beyond the boundaries of religion and that anyone can empathize with and enjoy it.”

By Saori Ibuki and Kassy Cho

Although her Indonesian Muslim parents never pressured her to wear a hijab, Rahmalia Aufa Yazid always figured that she would eventually end up wearing one.

Born and raised in Tokyo, she initially didn’t feel that strongly about Islam, so she had followed her parents’ lead when it came to the religion.

When she finally decided to put on a hijab at age 18, it felt impersonal to her, and Yazid struggled with dressing in it.

Although her Indonesian Muslim parents never pressured her to wear a hijab, Rahmalia Aufa Yazid always figured that she would eventually end up wearing one.

Born and raised in Tokyo, she initially didn’t feel that strongly about Islam, so she had followed her parents’ lead when it came to the religion.

When she finally decided to put on a hijab at age 18, it felt impersonal to her, and Yazid struggled with dressing in it.

“I felt that the hijab was a religious item of clothing, so I was choosing my clothes to match,” the 24-year-old freelance creator, who posts under her Instagram handle @aufatokyo, told BuzzFeed News.

As a result, she found herself missing out on popular Japanese fashion trends and feeling out of place in school, where she was the only hijabi student in her major.

“Not only did I stand out as someone with foreign heritage, my daily outfits now consisted of my mother’s old hijab and outfits that were totally different from designs and colors that were popular in Japan at the time,” she said.

“Although it was my choice to wear the hijab, I would be lying if I said I didn’t feel as though the hijab was, instead, wearing me,” she said.

All that changed when she encountered the work of Hana Tajima, a mixed-race British and Japanese designer who converted to Islam in her teens.

It was only after she saw Tajima’s Uniqlo modest wear collection that Yazid realized modest fashion didn’t have to feel out of place in the streets of Tokyo.

“Her fashion didn’t feel like it was trying to be particularly gorgeous, vivid, or even traditional,” Yazid said.

“That was the moment the hijab changed from an impersonal, religious item of clothing to something that was true to my life,“ she added.

Yazid now combines Muslim and Japanese fashions in the city of Tokyo, sharing her self-portraits on her Instagram to her 14,000 followers.

She calls Tokyo a “cold and restless city,” where people dress in neutral colors of black, white, beige, and khaki and where bright colors and striking patterns are rare.

She styles her hijab the way that Japanese people style their hair — to match their outfit and mood for the day.

Just as Japanese people vary their hairstyles, from straight to bobbed, wavy to short haircuts, Yazid uses different colors, materials, and wrapping methods to switch up her look.

For example, the hijab can be wrapped asymmetrically to create an effect that’s similar to that of bangs being swept to one side, she said.

“I also add accessories to create a more lively look,” she said. “I like hats, so I often wear a beret over the hijab.”

For Yazid, Islam’s restrictions against women showing skin is the part she enjoys most about fashion.

Because hijabi fashion doesn’t allow women to show off their neck, legs, or figures, it’s a lot more difficult to come up with an outfit that still achieves an overall balance, she said.

“But for me, that’s part of the fun,” she said. “It’s like solving a puzzle.”

Her work has led to an increased sense of her pride in her Muslim faith in a country where Muslims are a small minority, she said.

Yazid said she wants to use her work to show people that they can wear a hijab, live a normal life, and not look out of place in the city.

Since then, she said she’s received many comments from people who said they’re inspired by her work.

Some of them have begun wearing hijabs, while others have told her they want to learn more about Islam.

“Hijabi fashion — Muslim fashion — transcends the boundaries of religion and can be a source of enjoyment for anyone,” she said. “It’s something that all women who want to look beautiful with can empathize with and enjoy.”

She added, “I want to use what I do to improve people’s understanding of Muslims, change biased views about the religion, and help people realize the value of living in a diverse society.“

“I want to show myself, a Muslim, living strong and beautiful, through my art,” she said.
