Researching how people really lived in the period of your story, instead of cleaning it up for today's readers.

My 3 stages of writing.

The advantage of aging: Lying about shit.

If you really wanna experience something that'll blow your mind, live to be the oldest person in the room.

Not only is it fun to still be alive, but it's fun to lie like hell about historical events that happened long before other people were born.

"You mean you never heard about Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter falling into that 9-foot-deep pothole during the Inaugural Parade? What the fuck do they teach you in school?? Yeah, she stood on Jimmy's shoulders, then pulled him out. The Secret Service wasn't worth shit. Well, of course you can't find photos or videos. You think they wanted Russia and China seeing that?? Though they would have been impressed."

However, the Killer Bunny was real.

"Why did you turn off reblogs on that post?"

Because I'm not here to be noticed, I'm here to babble to the small amount of people who like my shit or at least are curious, but when a post goes past a certain point you start attracting minors, porn bots, all the people who I say in my bio I don't want to interact with, people who want to argue, and just straight up lunatics.

I don't want them to notice my blog. I want them to go away.

So reining in my posts keeps them from attracting people who don't know what "reining in" means.

I'm an extreme introvert, even online.

When you're so obsessed about getting your fanfic right you research the parts of a helicopter.

Lazy writers:

Me:

Tail boom! That's what that fucker's called! *types it into fic*

This is Hawk Moth. I'm in denial at the moment and can't take your call to come to my fucking senses. Don't bother leaving a message, I won't listen. Nathalie, this means you. *BEEP*

Raising the dead is not a healthy coping mechanism

Disappointed, but great art anyway.

Meet the Robinsons art dump ❤️

A few of these I referenced vintage illustrations by Al Parker and Bob Peak!

How I feel when I finish writing a chapter.

How I feel when I finish the entire first draft.

Never have anything your cats can touch or eat unless you've double-checked whether it can make them sick. It's amazing how just a little thing is poisonous.

More flowers which are poisonous to cats.

Household Hazards - Toxic Hazards for Cats.

Foods that cats can’t eat include:

Alcohol

Chocolate

Tea, coffee and energy drinks

Cheese and milk

Fat trimmings

Raw eggs, raw meat and raw fish

Grapes and their dried forms raisins, sultanas and currants

Onions and garlic

Xylitol

A reminder for those of us with cats at Easter that lilies of ANY kind are BAD for cats. Some species such as Calla, Peace and Peruvian do not cause kidney damage or death like Easter and daylilies, but they can still cause irritation and gastrointestinal issues if ingested...

So basically the show I loved is dead and gone. Well, I stopped watching after Season 2 anyway, because I didn't like where they were headed, and I was right, they ruined it entirely by turning it into fucking MCU multiverse bullshit.

And after that complete shit of a finale, with Adrien/Cat never confronting his father and finding out his nemesis was his father, or finding out he was the cause of his father's slow, lingering death, or Gabriel telling his son to his face how he did all that to save his mother, and hinting that Adrien isn't even human, and the entire planet being made over because of Gabriel's wish . . .

jeezus fuck.

And especially after ruining and then killing off my Gabriel, I don't have any reason to watch the series again.

But if I'd wanted to give it another chance, I see from that they're not even going to do it in the same animation style.

Bye bye, bug. I'll stick to watching Seasons 1 & 2, when you were sweet and fun.

There's been some new info about season 6 and the new Special episodes to come, but I haven't seen anyone talking about it on tumblr.

So I'm taking the liberty of making a summary:

Season 6:

-Sébastien Thibaudeau (the show's writing director) has announced that writing for season 6 is complete. There will be several new writers this season.

-Thomas Astruc has shared an image showing him working on the storyboard for a season 6 episode.

-I'm just coming back to something that was said several months ago since some people don't seem to know: All the animation studios that worked on seasons 1 to 5 will no longer be animating the next seasons of Miraculous. The series is getting a visual upgrade. And ZAG has shared a preview of the new sets for the coming seasons.

-Now we know that the new animation studio to work on the next seasons of miraculous is DWARF. This French animation studio worked on the Miraculous movie.

Special episode:

-The new special "The end of Ladybug" (whose name is only provisional) will take place this year before season 6 airs. This will be the last time Miraculous will be animated in the style we've known since season 1. (No word yet on whether SAMG will continue to animate future special episodes.)

-The dubbing of this special has already been done in English.

(Remember: just because an episode has been dubbed doesn't mean it's ready for broadcast. The dubbing can be done while the animation of the episode is not yet finished).

Other specials:

-Thomas would like the next special episode to take place in Japan.

-Thomas said he had already written the Brazil special episode as well as the Bible for a spin-off. He has also written many other stories in the Miraculous universe, but for reasons unknown to him, nothing seems to be moving to adapt these stories for animation or comics. He asks fans who would like to see these projects come to reality to put pressure on ZAG. (politely, of course).

-Thomas retweeted a fan who created a petition so that the special Tibet episode could one day be made.

-He also explained one of the reasons why Miraculous could not be animated in the Ladybug PV style.

He asks fans who would like to watch Miraculous with this style of animation to petition ZAG, Mediawan or Toei.

I may do more posts like this when I have new information, if you're interested of course (I'll never share spoilers or leaks, don't worry).

Me starting a first draft.

[vavandeveresfan]

Amen!

What if all fanfiction writers had the same attitudes that so many readers do? What if we treated our stories like content?

Readers: I won’t read WIPs, only completed work and LONG fics.

Writers: I will only post finished works once a year, you will never see 90% of my ideas and have no part of the creative process.

Readers: I will only read works that have tons of views/kudos/bookmarks.

Writers: I won’t update unless I have interest in my story. I’ll post a new chapter for every 100 kudos, 10 comments, and 5 bookmarks.

Readers: I can do whatever I want with fanfics, sell bound copies and criticise them publicly.

Writers: I will delete my fics without warning and never share more.

This is how you end fandom culture. This is how you lose AO3 and access to so many incredible stories for FREE.

✨Fanfiction is NOT content to be consumed! It is community and creative expression. ✨
