Hewo,,,,I was wondering if you had any writings tips! Where did you learn your craft? Do you have a favourite author?

Ooh man, my answers to this are probably gonna be kinda disappointing ghfgd. I’m pretty much entirely self taught for fun and I don’t read as much as I wish I did nowadays. I like to try and match the way I write to the time period the scene’s setting is closest to. So a lot of my stuff ends up sounding flowery and old fashioned.

I’ve been wanting to find the time to start reading more because that’s one of the best ways to refine how you write, seeing what other people are doing. But for now, what I do is just look back at things I wrote a while ago and pick apart what I like and don’t like about it and what I wanna do with that in the future. It’s easier once you get some distance from something to look at it objectively.

I’m honored you’d think to ask but I’m truly the worst person to give tips bc I barely know what im doing gjfgd. I feel confident in writing character scenes with heightened intense emotions but everything else is a bit of a struggle. And I’m not even sure how to put into words what my process is even for the stuff I’m confident with.

sometimes i think.........people would be less strange about gifmaker's role in the fandom..........if gifmaking seemed accessible to most people like it actually is.

drawing my time traveler character bc she was the only good thing to come out of my concept art/3d modeling class (i learned nothing about character design or 3d modeling and this character was the only assignment actually about character design that we did (i did my senior project on character design and learned way more about it than a whole semester long class that was supposed to teach me it))

im also going insane trying to track down the shoes i used for inspiration for hers but alas i cant find them

[sweetsweetloverlover]

ORETANI

(a lion statue found in the archaeological site of Castulo, and an Oretani warrior)

The Oretani were an Iberian group that lived in Northern Andalusia and Southern La Mancha, concentrated in the modern provinces of Jaén and Ciudad Real, with some dispersion into Córdoba and Albacete as well. Attested as early as the 5th century BC, the largest oppida or settlements, characterized by its great fortifications, were Ipolca (roman Obulco and modern Porcuna, Jaén) and Kastilo (roman Castulo, near modern Linares, Jaén). Due to its location next to rich mines, Kastilo / Castulo was one of the most important cities in Iberia not only during the Iberian era but also within the Roman Empire and beyond; it was head of a diocesis until the 15th century when it was abandoned, and it has been deemed as "the Iberian Pompeii" due to the richness of its materials and the state of the ruins. Meanwhile, Ipolca / Obulco has a so-called "Heroon", a sanctuary / temple in honour of a mysterious hero. Other significant sites were Puente Tablas (Jaén) and Torreparedones (Baena, Córdoba).

The Oretani also had some of the most impressive and largest sanctuaries in all of the Iberian world, like the rock ones in El Castellar or El Collado de los Jardines, both in Jaén. The sanctuary at Castellar was inside of a cave called Altos del Sotillo, in which every equinnox the light would penetrate and create a religious experience. Meanwhile, the Collado de los Jardines one sat inside the Cueva de los Muñecos [Cave of the Dolls], in Despeñaperros, a gorge that separates Andalusia and Castille, and as the name suggests, thousands of votive images have been found here.

The Oretani defeated Hamilcar circa 230 BC in the Battle of Helike (near modern Elx), after the 'king' of the Oretani, Orisson, came to aid the locals against the Punic siege of the city. Later on, however, the king's daughter, Himilce, was married to Hannibal as part of a pact between the Carthaginians and the Oretani. After the Second Punic War, it became part of Rome.

when someone genuinely tries to do something nice for you with only good intentions and it somehow ends up fucking something up?

and it really shouldn’t matter because it’s not that big of a deal but you’re an emotional little bitch and it upsets you way more than it should?

that’s how i feel right now and i fucking hate it
