Honestly did not much care about Hogwarts legacy coming out … but now that I know a Black family member is showing up, honestly considering getting it. Hoping they show more pure-blood culture, because I’m so sick of it getting ignored. It was a big deal for a REASON.

Writing Scenes Out of Order

Gonna be honest with y'all, I have never ever written a story completely in order. I am actually incapable of doing that. Even though I write the most detailed outlines known to man before I even think about writing, I still can’t write the scenes in order. I swear by this because I sincerely believe that writing scenes out of order increases my productivity which I’ll talk about later. Even if you haven’t done this before, I recommend everyone try it at least once, so without further ado, here are a few reasons that you should write your stories out of order. 

You Can Write The Ending First

When you write your scenes in order, generally that means that you’re going to write the ending last. In my experience, the ending is one of the most important things in your story, so I recommend that even if you write everything else in order, always write the ending first. Writing the ending first always gives you a light at the end of the tunnel. It gives you a destination to eventually reach. Even when you feel like your story is going absolutely nowhere, it allows you to go back and see what you want the ending to look like from the beginning which should help your motivation and hopefully lessen that pesky writer’s block!

Oh, Those Continuity Issues 

Continuity issues are the absolute worst. I can never seem to remember the way that I described stuff at the end of the book when I’m writing everything back at the beginning. One thing that does get frustrating about writing scenes out of order, is keeping up with continuity like what season it is, what characters have already met, and even who is alive and dead at certain points. Writing scenes in order eliminates these issues because you are writing everything in the order that it happens. I would most definitely recommend keeping an outline or at least a sheet of notes when you’re writing scenes out of order, so that you can keep yourself organized and lessen the continuity issues that you have to go back and fix in later drafts!

You Can Follow Your Inspiration

I plot every scene out extensively, but if I do have an idea for a scene, I immediately write it down and worry about where it fits into the story later. For me, this increases my motivation because at least I’m writing something even if it wasn’t in my original outline. Every story has scenes that aren’t the most interesting, and as writers, those can be the hardest scenes to write. Especially if you write all of the interesting scenes first, you won’t have anything to look forward to when you’re struggling through the more transitional parts of the story. This is just my opinion, but whenever I write in chronological order, my motivation goes down a lot. I like writing whatever scenes I want to write instead of writing what comes next in the story. Knowing that I can write whatever scene I want to next makes me super excited about writing

Sprinkle In That Foreshadowing

Y’all know how much I love me some well done foreshadowing. It’s simply one of the best things about reading and writing. But, writing foreshadowing can be really complicated if you aren’t sure how the story ends or even how the foreshadowing will fit into the story later. Because I normally write the ending scenes first, when I finally get around to writing the beginning scenes, I can easily sprinkle in little bits of foreshadowing or allusions to later scenes. It also helps me not overly foreshadow anything because I can go to the end and make sure I’m not doing too much.

To everyone saying that technically Tolkien never said male elves have long hair.

Glorfindel did not get pulled into the abyss by his long blond hair for you to dismiss his hairstyle!

Celeborn doesn't translate to 'silver tree' because he had a buzz cut!

Finrod's golden locks aren't mentioned multiple times for no reason!

Greek Mythology!Disney Villains AU where somebody calls Maleficent the Fairest of them All and both the Evil Queen and Cruella De Vil, naturally,- become enraged by it.

(Yzma is also furious but no ones taking her seriously. Why does no one see her beauty!! Also Gothel feels fine because she has no insecurities and Lady Tremaine thinks the whole thing is ridiculous)

(Ursula's cackling from the ocean because she organised this. Just for kicks)

(Gaston is the idiot that named names (He'll name anyone other than Hilda, they have a rivalry themselves for Prettiest Villain))

(Hades has seen this before and he's out of there before anyone can even look to him)

(Annnnnnnnd Hans is the asshole that is made to choose between them and he names 'Queen Elsa', just to try to get her killed)

Adaption done right

If y'all need a GOOD example of adaptions and properly using source material, adding your own spin to things, watch the Villain's lair on Youtube.

Cast is AMAZING. Music is hit or miss at times, as are the filler episodes, but overall it's intriguing, fun, and more importantly, you stay hooked. The stakes have just been raised once more in the latest episode drop. Tensions are rising, and now we have to know who will betray who!

Honestly, Maleficent being so calm despite all the insults and such is HIGHLY concerning.
