I'M BACK BITCHES

After a LONG time absent I'm back!!

HELLO HELLO!!!!!

And to start off this wonderful new beginning I'm sharing a AO3 collection/challange with you! Me and my brother started a new challenge/collection on ao3 called One_Shot_A_Day. I've already posted on their once but the main goal is just to get pasted writers block. There are two wheel spinners, one you make yourself and the other is premade.

One spinner is a list of all of your favorite ships or just charascters you want to write about. This one you'll need to create yourself.

The second is a list of tropes!

The link is here if anyone is intersted!!!!

Some advice for when you’re writing and find yourself stuck in the middle of a scene:

kill someone

ask this question: “What could go wrong?” and write exactly how it goes wrong

switch the POV from your current character to another - a minor character, the antagonist, anyone

stop writing whatever scene you’re struggling with and skip to the next one you want to write

write the ending

write a sex scene

use a scene prompt

use sentence starters

read someone else’s writing

Never delete. Never read what you’ve already written. Pass Go, collect your $200, and keep going.

WRITE!!! YOUR!!!! FUCKING!!!! BOOK!!!! SO!!!! I!!! CAN!!! FUCKING!!!!! READ!!! IT!!!

Let's Talk About Pacing Our Fight Scenes.

For Fast-Paced Parts:

Short words with single syllables. Immediately > at once/ endeavour > try/ indicate > point at/ investigate > check out.

Short sentences, the shorter the better.

Partial sentences to blaze through multiple senses and actions within a few lines.

Short paragraphs

Lots of verbs.

Few adjectives and adverbs.

Cut down on -ing form of verbs, as it can make words longer

Use simple past tense

Avoid conjunctions and link words.

Avoid internal thought - your characters are irrational, ruthless and in the flow of pure action.

For Slow-Paced Parts:

Use medium/long sentences

the paragraphs are longer: three lines minimum

Include longer words with more syllables

Use adjectives and maybe a couple of adverbs.

Insert the thoughts of the PoV character.

Don't get stuck on a scene

Not in the mood to write the scene you’re working on? Don’t worry about it! Make some notes and move on.

There is no shame in just jotting down the main points in a scene and revisiting it later. It’s ok to just not be feeling it sometimes.
