BTW when you encounter a character and think "What's this guy's fucking problem?" that's your body trying to give you an out before you fall into obsession.
yessss he is!!! Anyway, I hope you’re going to feel better soon! Take care of yourself, you are loved and wanted here (the writing community)
hi hello i am not feeling super duper today so please tag me in all fluff, all memes, all animal pictures, and anything sweet and nice that will make me feel better <3
ilusm
writer culture is creating a sunshine character and then making them go through so much trauma that they're unrecognisable
being a writer is writing an action scene and making the sound effects out loud for full immersion
I love you mean girls in literature, I love you manipulative and scheming elder sisters of the protagonists, I love you ambitious women washing damned spots from bloody hands, I love you “she was always the perfect/favorite child,” I love you Emma Woodhouses and Caroline Bingleys, I love you mean girls with complex and morally questionable but ultimately understandable motivations, I love you mean girls they called evil and never bothered to explain at all, I love you mean girls who are not even girls, I love you queen bees, bullies, cheerleading captains, and heads of the school play in teen flicks, I love you weapons of war and calculating politicians and manipulators of royal court, I love you sirens and succubi and vampiresses, I love you changed by the end, I love you still the same bitch as before-
Bothering the beast
at the insane stage of character obsession where i start getting the urge to post pngs of them every five seconds like im showing ppl a picture of my stupid ass boyfriend that nobody likes but me
Maybe this therapy shit is working
also what’s with the narrative that when there’s a disabled body it has to be fixed? Implying that it is not right the way it is.
Not every disabled life is a physically painful experience.
Disability is natural, disability happens. The difficulty of being disabled by an outside world that barely adjusts to your needs is the problem, not the disabled body.
A lot of suffering disabled people go through is made up of people not caring/looking out and the societal idea that a disabled body is a broken body that has to be pitied.
I will die on this hill.
writing tips blogs: “to make your character feel real and relatable you need to take a little from them.”
dystopian writers: “On it boss!” *turns to main character and points at them with a pencil* “No bitches, no family, no limbs, no hope, no healing, no rest, no peace, no clue, no wisdom, no help, no freedom, no redemption, no happy end, no comfort, no safety, no food, no mercy, no dignity, no conclusion, no impact, ONLY WAR.”
ugghh uaahhfh aaafdhhf a I write about war. Constantly in the trenches. You’re safe and wanted here.
