When your mom gives you Covid:

(Warning loud video)

[skylarkdevries]

This is me but with the urge to tell my job mentor about Boogie2988’s job interview aka the worst interview ever 😂

my English prof teaching abt cover letters today and me trying not to bring up the luke skywalker cover letter post:

want your favorite author to update but don’t want to be too pushy in their comment section?

here’s 5 things you can do to encourage them:

Reblog their fic link on tumblr (bonus if it’s with tags)

Bookmark the fic with a note about what you’re excited about/love in the fic

Recommend the fic to your friends or local discord channel

Draw art or create other media for the fic (as indicated by the author’s comfort level)

Leave them a comment when re-reading about the parts of the chapter/story that stood out to you the second time

I received the nicest comment on By Selûne’s Grace a few weeks ago and it legit made me so happy, especially since at that time the story was receiving fewer comments than before. It truly made my day 🤍🤍

People used to comment on web comics.

People used to comment on fanfiction.

People used to comment on fanart.

People used to comment on OCs.

I hate "content" culture.

I hate "consuming content" and scrolling immediately to the next thing.

People used to be excited about the art that other people created.

People used to want to share that excitement with creators.

I hate this future.

Concept: MyAnna Buring as Melodia Thorm. (This totally has nothing to do with future chapters of BSG 🤫)

I struggle with this while writing By Selûne’s Grace 😂

writing something with two characters who use the same pronouns and fighting to balance using names vs using pronouns in a way that's both smooth to read and easy to comprehend

[skylarkdevries]

I’m thankful for every comment I get on By Selûne’s Grace, I tend to reply after I post a new chapter to interact and build engagement with my audience to show my appreciation. While I do think it makes the comment count inaccurate, I’m not too bothered by it.

Help me solve something I overthink about way too much when it comes to my fics

On my way back to the train station after seeing MyAnna in her play “The Hunt” this bar came up on my google maps 🥺

Lil’ 7 year old gremlin Shadowheart doodle i drew, based on a scene in my fanfic “By Selûne’s Grace” 😂

“She and her fellow patrons of Selûne sweep the Sharran hideout, eventually discovering the girl in a small bedroom. The half elven child is wearing a purple tunic with black trousers, her raven black hair tied back in a braid, emerald green eyes glaring at them angrily as she rushes at them with a knife.”

Forgot to share my newest WIP that I’ve been obsessed with on here ☺️

[skylarkdevries]

No one reblogs on tumblr anymore.

No one leaves comments on Ao3 anymore.

Seriously people the lack of fandom interaction these days makes me genuinely depressed, it never used to be like this, makes me wonder what's the point of coming online to do anything anymore.

Reblog a post so other people can see it.

Leave a comment so the author doesn't feel like giving up.

Fandom cannot live on Likes or Kudos alone.

So happy I’m going to see MyAnna’s theater performance in NY 🥰

[skylarkdevries]

Or moving your body a certain way 😆

I'm watching a fanartist stream and I just-
