watched a skillshare course about freewriting last Saturday and I think I will try to make this a daily routine just for funsies, just to see how it goes. I'm already writing more in my journal that I used to, which is good, but I'd also like to get back into fiction and this seems like a way to ease back into it. I'm starting with 6 minutes a day because making it doable is better than making it grandiose (and once I start I don't wanna stop anyway)

#if you have skillshare it's 'creative writing corner' by niamh prior #have you ever tried it?#apparently it's like...a warm up excercise for writers that's followed by many #and here i am not even knowing there were warming up excercises for writers 👍🏼😂#it's nice to learn stuff #rambles #freewriting

i don't want to be left out, so i come here too sometimes.

#lockwood and co #lockwood & co #anthony lockwood #lucy carlyle #locklyle #the empty grave #ONE OF MY FAVORITE SCENES #we just learn so much about lockwood from such a brief scene and it really sticks with me #it's actually very nice how open he is about his feelings and like. his depression and stuff. despite not trying to say it out loud.#although poor Lucy thought she was going on a date and then got hit with that heavy ass philosophical monologue from her crush #lockwood goes. 'no there's no point in life so i'll just keep on fighting till it ends' and lucy's just left standing there in SHOCK #gagged even #ah this took me SO long but i was really really enjoying rendering this piece #ahh i envisioned a really green palette #though the cemetary doesn't look *entirely* how i pictured it i'm happy w/ this result.

Charles Leclerc in Formula 1: Drive to Survive, Season 7 (2025)

#formula 1 #f1 #f1edit #charles leclerc #charlesleclercedit #dts s7 #dtsedit #drive to survive #*#*mine: gif #s1 and 2 still clears i fear. at least in terms of charles #idk here i didn't feel i saw or learned anything new or groundbreaking?? unlike the sebchal homoerotic ferrari team briefing yknow #maybe it's bc the drivers are so chronically online and have generally built up a bigger personal brand/following #but really not much of this was new. at least in terms of charles i haven't fully watched all the eps yet #a lot of the monaco episode stuff we already saw in the canal+ documentary and then he took a lot of that and put it in his weekend vlog #so it's like. nice but im seeing the same stuff with slight variations like three times at this point?#the singapore ep was an interesting format change and obvs those friendship dynamics are genuine so it's easy & pleasant to watch #but again at least in charles's case like. nothing revolutionary???#idk i sometimes enjoy the netflix docu cinematography aspect; like there's some nice shots and juicy colours #but as a phenomenon dts is past its peak for sure. it worked in the early seasons bc of the novelty of having that much access to go bts #but now most teams show a lot of that stuff off on their socials or vlogs anyway so like. there's a lot of overlap

Freshly coronated Prophecy Prince meets Homeless Vagabond.

Alef is excited to have a friend his age that isn't dead in a cave somewhere under Isle of Dawn.

Steward on the other hand thinks he's a freak.

#this is SO OOC #but i think it would be REALLY funny if they both met when they were around the same age #I imagine that steward is the gentlest politest kid ever #until Alef shows up and then all of a sudden he's acting like any normal 15 year old boy #i just know they'd throw stuff at each other and wrestle in the wastelands #TGC GIVE THESE CHARACTERS A HAPPY ENDING PLEASEEEEE #anyways #its not happening #and this isnt canon compliant #but its funny to imagine #sky cotl #sky children of the light #hopeful steward #dusk ember #prince alef #king resh #dawn ember #two embers #doodle #fanart #my art #be nice to alef guys he hasnt had a friend since the cave of prophecy #and all of them are dead now #hes still learning lol #steward learns this by alef going “all my friends are dead”#no context #11/10 ways to introduce yourself to someone alef #A+ social behavior #steward probably thinks hes a mass murder

I think the funniest Stan twins fact is that Stanley is the cleaner twin LOL

I can imagine Ford leaving all his papers and research piled around the house and Stan grumbling as he picks up after him

#I guess when you’ve been homeless for so long you learn to keep your stuff nice when you finally have it #gravity falls #stan pines #stanley pines #grunkle stan #stanford pines #gravity falls stanford #ford gravity falls #ford pines

BAND OF BROTHERS BEHIND THE SCENES - EPISODE 5 WINTERS ON LEAVE IN PARIS (01, 02, 03, 04)

#i dont know why it was so surprising to me that this scene was shot on a soundstage.#in my mind i thought they went to a random bar in england and just dressed it up nice to look french #you learn something new every day!!#the third photo doesn't have a source because i believe it is a photo extra included in the collectors edition box set.#i would really recommend checking out the source link for the 4th photo #its from the american society of cinematographers and it goes into more cgi stuff from bofb post-production that is very interesting #richard winters #band of brothers #hbo war

I really do think looking at bad writing is one of the best ways to learn about writing in general, especially for beginners.

the thing is, writing in general is highly subjective- a good sentence will be good in different ways to different people, or not impress someone at all.

a bad sentence? most people can spot bad sentences easy, especially if it is presented to them as 'here's an example of a bad sentence, let's unpack why.'

bad writing can also be very funny, which I think is again often more engaging than 'here's a work of literary genius go analyze it'. Like here's some bad writing from lightlark3:

The moment it was out of Horus’s grip, his body became bones. The flesh turned to ash. He became a corpse.

it's dumb as hell, but I think could foster a solid discussion when you ask 'why? what is the author intending to say? what about it makes it feel 'clunky'? How would you write the same idea?'

#truly pointless posting of just. thoughts in me head #“of course you'd say that guy who has a special interest in bad writing” okay but I think it's true #thinking about chatgpt and writing and just going 'goddamn I wish I could help the youth with writing bc it can be so fun'#'analytical skills are so important in general especially with writing and reading and I think this is a fun good way to introduce that'#I don't do full on breakdowns of examples of bad writing that much in reviews vs more in context talk...#but I do hope I do a good job of trying to explain my thoughts and how I got there and how things can be viewed from many angles and not ju #t that things are bad but why. sometimes I feel very repetative when I explain stuff but then i think what if my vid is the first time #someone is exposed to some concept. I don't want them to learn 'this trope sucks' i want them to know why and how it fails and what it is #i guess....... rambles. I don't think I could be a teacher esp not go to uni again but its a thing I've always been passionate about #bc I have this dumb naive idea I can communicate with people and help them understand things #I also just want to be a positive influence on people's lives. idc online but I used to co-run dnd for mixed age group #and I enjoyed being that aspect of 'after school club adult'. I didn't have a lot of adult support as a kid so it's nice to be that!
