Resources For Writing Period Pieces: 1900-1939

– The format of this piece in my Resources For Writing Period Pieces series is different due to it covering only a portion of a century, which has much more documentation and recorded historical details. I’ve done this in a way that covered each decade almost separately, but put all four under the umbrella of “early 20th century”. I hope this is helpful to all of you historical fiction writers out there. The other two articles covering this century will be formatted the same way. Happy researching!

MY CURRENT WORK IN PROGRESS (Check it out, it’s pretty cool. At least I think it is.)

Witness the moment part of Ben’s soul leave his body

So you’re telling me this is a 40 year old man? Most men I know that are in their 40s look so drastically different??! He’s immortal and he’s not fooling me.

Exhibit A: look at his eyes. Why are they always so black? Witchcraft I tell you.

It’s just, like… it’s embarrassing. I feel like a… a fraud. EUPHORIA: FUCK ANYONE WHO’S NOT A SEA BLOB (2021)

“I think women like to read about murderous mothers and lost little girls because it’s our only mainstream outlet to even begin discussing female violence on a personal level. Female violence is a specific brand of ferocity. It’s invasive. A girlfight is all teeth and hair, spit and nails — a much more fearsome thing to watch than two dudes clobbering each other. And the mental violence is positively gory. Women entwine. Some of the most disturbing, sick relationships I’ve witnessed are between long-time friends, and especially mothers and daughters. Innuendo, backspin, false encouragement, punishing withdrawal, sexual jealousy, garden-variety jealousy — watching women go to work on each other is a horrific bit of pageantry that can stretch on for years. Libraries are filled with stories on generations of brutal men, trapped in a cycle of aggression. I wanted to write about the violence of women. […] I particularly mourn the lack of female villains — good, potent female villains…I’m talking violent, wicked women. Scary women. Don’t tell me you don’t know some. The point is, women have spent so many years girl-powering ourselves — to the point of almost parodic encouragement — we’ve left no room to acknowledge our dark side. Dark sides are important. They should be nurtured like nasty black orchids.”

— Gillian Flynn, “I Was Not a Nice Little Girl”

David Lynch meets Marina and the Diamonds

Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me (David Lynch, 1992)

Forget, performed by Marina and the Diamonds. Written by Marina Diamandis.

Could you please write some dating maria from deadly class hcs?

Maria is just awsome omg

•Maria craves to be truly loved and cared for, she wants to believe that someone cares for her and, therefore, any form of affection that you give her will be appreciated.

•Maria is physical person so she will hug you and kiss you anytime she have the chance.

•She also will protect you and harm whoever dares to lie a finger on you. She have finally found the person who she can fully trust and she dosen't want to let go

•Maria's going to make dance with her and she doesn't care if you do it badly, the only thing that matters is to have some fun!

•Sneaking out to have little trips to Mexico or the beach.

•And having date nights that involve stealing for a convenience store or just making out in your bedroom.

•Hand in hand combat can get pretty handsy when you two are partners

•Maria is a supportive girlfriend, she'll be there for you no matter what.

•She can get jealous pretty easily and more if she's off her meds, so she might throw an arrow at you if she sees that something is weird.

•Maria sometimes go to your bedroom whe she can't sleep and snuggle up to you to feel better. Despite where you live is hell, those nights are the best; you both feel safe in that cute little moment.

Big “Ring in the new year of plague” energy.

Just so we’re all clear on where I stand: Black lives matter, trans women are women, trans men are men, nonbinary people are beautiful, asexual/aromantic folks have a place in the LGBTQ community, Queer is not a dirty word, and being “anti fascist” is a moral position, not a political one.

This was funnier in my head

Thirteen and Dhawan!Master have the relationship dynamic of a feral raccoon and a wet cat.

Change my mind.

Bad Reputation (Part One) - Oliver Wood Imagine

A/N: hello my dearies, alright, first off, I absolutely loved this request when I got it, but I decided there is no way I can do a one-shot so… this story will be my first multi-chapter imagine! :D thank you so much for this request I am loving writing it! ;) :D here we go, dearies… Part 1 :)

Request - Anonymous said: Hey I was wondering if you’d write a oneshot based on an idea I came up for Oliver, where he’s in the year above you in Gryffindor, and McGonagall decides to assign him to be your mentor (we have them in our school, for people who ditch/don’t hand in homeworks/get in fights etc, they’re kinda supposed to be a good influence, help you, and keep you out of trouble). You’re both kinda snappy/spiteful/jerky toward each other at first, cause you hate having a watchdog trying to keep you in line and he hates being assigned to someone who seems so determined to get in trouble (which will in turn get both him and the house in trouble), cause you’re always getting into fights in the corridors, ditching, snapping at teachers etc, but then you very slowly start to like each other? Which you find odd because he’s well liked and popular, and you’re a loner, who’s misunderstood and not generally well liked? You can totally add your own ideas too! :3 

Warnings: smoking, reader and Oliver fight all the time, reader has a bad rep and everyone is mean to her

Disclaimer: I don’t own Harry Potter :D gifs aren’t mine :)

Your name: submit What is this?

**********************************************

Bad Reputation

I don’t give a damn ‘bout my reputation

“Miss Rosier, I believe you know why I have called you into my office today” Professor McGonagall said looking at the girl sitting in front of her.

 She was not going to lie. This girl was by far one of the hardest students she had ever had to deal with. She was probably worse than James Potter, Sirius Black and the Weasley twins combined. (Y/N) was always getting herself in trouble and never seemed to care about understanding her lesson.

 “Not really, Professor. You see, I did flunk out of Divination” she said with a sly smile.

“Miss Rosier, you got into a fight with a group of students and you talked back to a teacher when he gave you detention-“

“Alright, those students were from Slytherin and I talked back to Snape, who is also from Slytherin, so really… I should get points for that” she argued.

“Talking back to a Professor is never right” Professor McGonagall warned her as she rolled her eyes. “On top of that, it has come to my attention by the rest of your teachers that you have been absent to your classes and missing deadlines on your homework” she informed her.

“What else is new?” she muttered to herself.

“Miss Rosier, I am really trying my best here to keep you on the rails but you seem to make it a task for it to be impossible” she said raising her voice. “So, I’m afraid I have no choice but to assign you a mentor-“

“What?” (Y/N) snapped getting her full attention to the teacher now. “A babysitter? You’re joking, right?”

Before Professor McGonagall could answer, there was a knock on the door.

“Come on in” Professor McGonagall said as the door opened.

“You wanted to see me, Professor?” (Y/N) saw Oliver Wood coming inside the classroom.

“Ah, yes. Mr. Wood” Professor McGonagall said smiling; all anger gone. “Please take a seat” she said pointing at the chair next to (Y/N). Oliver smiled awkwardly at her. He knew who she was. (Y/N) was a year below him and from the same house. But the girl was nothing but trouble. He knew better than to stay out of her path. “I believe you know Miss Rosier?”

“Hello, (Y/N)” Oliver said kindly sticking out his hand for her to shake. (Y/N) looked at his hand and back at him with a weird expression on her face. She rolled her eyes but shook his hand knowing otherwise Professor McGonagall would make her do it.

“Mr. Wood, I called you in here because I am assigning you to be Miss Rosier’s mentor” Professor McGonagall continued. (Y/N) saw Oliver pale a little.

“I’m sorry?” he asked not wanting to believe it.

This wasn’t the manip I set out to make, but that happens a lot.  Martha with her hair down is a real pain to edit.

Whoops I’m bitter.

Doctor Who moodboard: Adric & Susan Foreman (requested by: anon)

I like the shows about women going through gradual breakdowns because I feel like it maps out the course of my own gradual breakdown. It’s uncomfortable but I feel like my hands being held through this

when Florence Welch said “but did I dream too big? do I have to let it go? and what if one day there is no such thing as snow?”

and when Mitski said “venus, planet of love, was destroyed by global warming; did its people want too much too? did its people want too much?”
