NEVER GIVE UP

[xawkward-ariesx]

Fanfiction is so silly. I am playing with my dolls and people are coming over to watch. Some of them even clap and give me compliments. And when I'm done playing, I can go and watch other people play with their dolls.

“First and foremost I’m writing for myself,” I hiss through my teeth, resisting the urge to refresh my email for an Ao3 message for the 100th time.

also shitposting aside it should've been a horror movie. belinda chandra should've looked down at that child and known she would've died for her. she would've killed for her. and known also that those aren't her feelings. this isn't her child. fifteen wanted this dream so badly that he rewrote belinda's whole life. this ending isn't just a tragedy for the doctor

(opening the author’s works page after finishing a fic) and if im lucky they’ll have written this exact same fic but different a bunch more times

starting to suspect that tech bros actually just don’t know what reading is

You should only write in present tense with extreme caution.

not because it's bad or anything but because if you do it even once you're going to be editing the bits where you shifted tenses out of your writing for the rest of your life

Ok but the way Belinda ending does open up the option for some very angsty storyline’s where she remembers the other reality and realises what the doctor did to her and made her into, mother of a child she never wanted, loss of autonomy, seemingly no desire to continue being a nurse etc

He’s dangerous - just as she noted at the beginning of her season

Im just feeling a certain way rn

[xawkward-ariesx]

writing fiction is for people who were really disappointed when their friends started growing out of playing with dolls

[xawkward-ariesx]

would you?

[xawkward-ariesx]

The question mark option will never not be funny to me.

Like, how many chapters?

Idk.

I—the author—am just as curious as you are.

[xawkward-ariesx]

i loveeeeeee nonlinear storytelling. show me where we are. now show me how we got here. the end before the beginning. show me how it was inevitable or how many chances we had to change things(nothing was ever going to change). let's meet in the middle as all the puzzle pieces slide into place hell yeah that's the good shit.
