hi! just to let you know, i asked anonymously about how you balance writing and adult life. your reply actually helped me at least with settling down my writing priorities and my wip's (which i don't have much, considering i've eliminated all of my old ones not too long ago).

i've checked some of your fics, haven't started reading them yet, but they're all interesting. idk what to choose, there's so many options WAAAAHHHHHHH

okay, but i forgot to ask previously on how you motivate yourself to write, even on days when you don't feel like writing, but you have to. i used to be able to will myself to write, but now even when i have motivation, i seem to be unable to write, y'know? anyway, i gotta stop before i rant and read any of your sbi or qsmp fics, have a great day! :D

oh I'm so glad my advice was able to help you out!! it's always a good thing to prioritize your wips, but also don't hold back from writing something you really want to write just because you have other things. it's about balancing enjoying what you're doing while also trying to keep things organized

lol yeah there's a lot of options bc, uh, I write a lot. but if you want my personal recommendations, I think the stars and their children is the best thing I've ever written. but also stars is very long, so if you want something a bit shorter I'm also really proud of how honey and tangerines turned out. then if you want a one shot instead of a multi chapter fic, a dusty tomb is a lot of fun!

honestly how I motivate myself to write is by just... doing it? which isn't very helpful I know, but it's just a matter of kicking my mind into gear. it's a talent I've had to get good at over the years, and there are so many times I get caught in the loop of checking social media and scrolling mindlessly for hours telling myself i'm going to stop and write soon but it takes an insanely long time for me to actually be able to close that tab.

sometimes what's helpful is by having scenes in my fics I'm working towards writing, because then me being excited to write something specific makes it a lot easier to jump into it. I know a lot of authors write non chronologically, so even if the scene they want to write isn't going to be for a while, they'll write it anyway just to get in the groove since that's what they want to write. then once you get started it's easier to switch back to writing the bits you don't want to write as much. I myself don't do this. I only write chronologically, but that's just a me thing because writing out of order just makes things worse for me and ruins the flow of my writing.

just try to figure out different tactics for how to get yourself excited about your writing, and remember that it gets easier to write the more you practice at it. once you're more familiar with forcing yourself into that mindset, it's far less of a challenge to sit down and start typing

hello everyone!

so this is my newest pinned post. i’ve changed some things about myself online.

BASIC INFO IS ON MY PROFILE, GO CHECK

ALSO DNI: minors; any transphobes, homophobes, biphobes, acephobes, and others who would sh*t on us lgbtqia+; racists, sexists, and ableists; other a*holes in general, please f*ck off

since february, i have decided not to pursue writing youtube fanfiction any longer. not that i won’t step down from fanfiction at all—i just don’t think i need to write anything about content creators on youtube. my taste for some youtubers comes and goes, with all the allegations and shady actions that they have made, and even with ones that seem unproblematic, i’d feel icky writing about them. it truly is a sign that i’ve grown as a person and as a writer. at least with original fiction, i can just use them as faceclaims and not worry about violating their boundaries. i’ll stick with fanfiction of movie and book characters from now on.

also, i changed platforms now! my wattpad accounts are deleted. my existing writing platforms are:

ao3 (archiveofourown): caelestisgaudium

fanfiction.net: caelestisgaudium

fictionpress: unleashingmypen

i’m planning to get quotev, but i don’t know yet

nowadays, whatever media that grabs my attention will be the ones on my blog at the moment. current obsession right now fluctuates between måneskin and dan and phil.

if you’ve made it this far, then thank you so much for reading. enjoy the cesspool of mess that is my tumblr account ^^

welcome! mabuhay!

figured i’d post a more proper introduction, so please enjoy, stay safe!

hello everyone, thanks for checking in to this account. i’m still a piece of garbage. i mean, i’m glad to have you here.

i’m diwa agustin, or just diwa—pronounced DEE-wah, btw. my first pen name can mean many things depending on the context it’s used: “soul,” “spirit,” “mind,” “essence,” and “consciousness”; my last pen name just sounds right with diwa.

a few more things about me that’s not on my bio: i’m a libra. my birth month is september. born and raised in the philippines. bilingual (i speak mainly in english here, but i can also have a full conversation in filipino). i’m still figuring out my gender identity atm. bisexual aromantic, baby.

oh, and one more thing: i write fanfiction and original fiction. i love horror, mystery, thriller, and realistic fiction. the last thing i’d write is romance, but i’ll try—just not with fanfiction. i have an agenda against shipping irl people (if it’s related to roleplay like qsmp, then i can accept, but that’s it).

i’m in many fandoms. my main ones atm are qsmp and sleepybois inc/sbi. i also like other mcyt content (but not anything related with the dream team, so dream/georgenotfound/sapnap stans, dni), dan and phil, markiplier, jacksepticeye, watcher/buzzfeed unsolved, lovejoy, and a whole lot more, i’m too lazy to make the long list. istg i’ve been on youtube fandoms for many years now, spare me.

i’m mostly here to reblog and be a fangirl, but i’ll post updates, excerpts from stories that will come out soon, and just whatever comes to my mind.

if you want to see my stories and what else i do outside tumblr, check me out on these accounts.

ao3: sonderlilies

wattpad: sonderlilies (fanfiction), unleashingmypen (original)

that’s all i could share here. i’m glad that you made it this far. wish me luck, and feel free to slip in my dms (except if you’re a minor, then in that case, please dni). paalam!
