Send me a pairing and a number and I'll make you something :)

“Come over here and make me.”

“Have you lost your damn mind!?”

“Please, don’t leave.”

“Do you…well…I mean…I could give you a massage?”

“Wait a minute. Are you jealous?”

“Is there a reason you’re naked in my bed?”

“I almost lost you.”

“Wanna bet?”

“Don’t you ever do that again!”

“Teach me how to play?”

“Don’t you dare throw that snowba-, goddammit!”

“I think we need to talk.”

“Kiss me.”

“Hey, I’m with you, okay? Always.”

“So, I found this waterfall…”

“It could be worse.”

“Looks like we’ll be trapped for a while…”

“This is without a doubt the stupidest plan you’ve ever had. Of course I’m in.”

“The paint’s supposed to go where?”

“You need to wake up because I can’t do this without you.”

“We’re in the middle of a thunderstorm and you wanna stop and feel the rain?”

“I’ve seen the way you look at me when you think I don’t notice.”

“Just once.”

“You’re the only one I trust to do this.”

“I can’t believe you talked me into this.”

Group Writing Exercise

Alright, writers, it’s time for another group writing exercise! As usual, it’s completely optional--let us know if you want to join. This time we’re going to write a story all together, one chapter each. The point of this is neither to spit out crack or weave a masterpiece, but simply to practice some words and have fun seeing each other’s writing style and choices. Solely because it’s the most common and probably the only fandom we all know, we’ll be writing a Harry Potter story. (But feel free to include elements of other things for your chapter; this group activity will have rather loose rules.)

Rules:

Tell a mod or send the group an ask to sign up and nominate one character and one keyword. These will determine the story’s main cast and the base plot. Then we’ll assign the chapter order--each writer will get one chapter with which they can do whatever they want. (But do add tags if you add extreme content.)

Once it’s your turn, you’ll have one month to complete and post your chapter. Please make it somewhere between 50 and 5000 words. Try to honour the chosen cast and prompt, but otherwise have at it--the fun of this is seeing where each person chooses to go with it!

We haven’t yet determined whether this story will be a shared one on Ao3 or just posted on tumblr. Please let the mods know your thoughts on it and we’ll tally the votes.

Don’t fall into the danger of comparing your writing to anyone else’s. I believe that is the darkest place imaginable for a writer. You’re never going to write like your favorite writer because, just like them, you have a unique voice and you’re the only one with it.

You write beautifully and there will always be someone better than you and someone worse, but there will never be anyone who can do what you can.  Keep going and write like no one’s reading!
