who else has a friend on here that they meet thru a mutual and you haven't really interacted but you still feel a special sort of kinship when you see them on your dash like, that's my friend's friend! *wave of unexplained affection*

Made some jank memes (bad quality cuz I did it in like 10 min) for Forged in Red.

Also excuse me I don't have a good meme sense and hence the old templates (outdated by like 3 years or smn).

Please read my book when it is released uwu.

Why would I write when I could imagine my characters going through the story and then get upset when a copy of the work doesn’t magically appear in front of me

Blood dripping from a character's fingers which clearly originates from an injury far higher up their arm or shoulder but has run all the way down as their arm dangles loosely, their hand wetly stained with blood but uninjured beneath.

the writer’s urge to ask your friends “do you wanna see a little somethin’ i’ve been working on?” when the little somethin’ you’ve been working on is 800 words and ends in the middle of a sentence

Sibling dynamics are kind of an untapped gold mine in media. Relationships between siblings can be so weird. We experienced the same childhood but in very different ways. I helped raise you. You helped raise me. You’re the only person I’ve ever really punched. You drive me fucking crazy but if anyone ever hurt you I’d chase them to the ends of the earth. You’re the only one who understands what it was like to see our parents slowly come to hate one another. Stop stealing my fucking socks.

Unreliable narrators are one hell of an idea. You can just write whatever, and if a reader points out "hey the way this scene happened should not be physically possible if it's done the way this character described it", you can just be like "yeah I don't trust that fucker either."

It's funny having a very high tolerance for pain but a very low tolerance for other forms of discomfort. Like yea tattoos piercings cramps shots cuts bruises whatever thats nothing. But I better not get nauseous or hear a loud sound. Or I'll die

So i accidently found my college senior's Tumblr account that I didn't know existed.

It feels like i uncovered their secret identity. Their alter ego.

And i weirdly feel guilty about it.

AND IT WAS A COMPLETE FUCKING ACCIDENT.

Because they posted this fan art of theirs on both insta and tumblr. And i just happened to be scrolling the artworks of that very random on Tumblr and recognised it.

They don't reveal their identity on their Tumblr....so I feel even more guilty because of this point.

Spin this wheel first and then this wheel second to generate the title of a YA fantasy novel!

(If the second wheel lands on an option ending with a plus sign, spin it again)

Share what you got!

hate when people think the only archetype possible for a male sidekick to a female protagonist is a soft boi and/or himbo. like the implication there is that the only reason a man would ever defer to a woman’s authority is if he was a bumbling idiot. love male supporting characters who are smart and strong and confident and can step up when necessary but still kind and humble enough to let someone else take the lead most of the time

[the-stray-storyteller]

saw someone share this on their ig stories and i am obsessed

big plans tonight
