She will come and invade your bedroom with glitter and sheet music and broadway posters. Fear her. not shown here but she has a bunch of pins on the back of her jacket representing all her favorite shows and the ones she’s been in. A star for Hamilton, a lil witch hat for Wicked, a rose for Beauty and the Beast, etc. her necklace was also supposed to be a microphone I’m sorry

him. He is a menace to society thank you very much. Yes, he always has that camera on him. It’s his baby he named it Jessie. The shirt I kinda stole from my Grandpapa- says “I will take pictures here and there, I will take pictures everywhere” which I thought fit him. Will update this whenever he gets a last name

DUDE FINALLY HAS A LAST NAME

Y’all have no idea how long it took me to come up with that. Just those six letters cost me half an hour. Anyway. Him. If he was alive now you KNOW he’d be in like all the school clubs and the only student body president in the history of the world who actually gets crap done

[dia-the-writer]

authors, quit with the “my eyes burned because I was about to cry” crap. I am a very emotional person and when I’m trying not to cry, my eyes don’t feel crap. My nose burns. Eyes burning is more poetic but it’s lying. unless the nose thing is just me. It might be.

[dia-the-writer]

does anyone have tips for writing mostly filler chapters but with a bunch of exposition bc I have no idea how to do that and well. I haven’t updated my wip on Q in weeks and I feel like people are getting impatient with me

[dia-the-writer]

Alright.

You ready for a hard 'tag your oc' challenge?

Tag an oc who doesn't have childhood trauma. At all. Who's family is still alive.

I'll wait.

[dia-the-writer]

What? Oh yeah, she’s an absolute sweetheart. Only killed like 7 people so far, severely injured about 20 others. But yeah she’s super nice- no no stay she wants to talk to you. I 63% guarantee you’ll live through the conversation. (Kidding, kidding. Mostly.)

[dia-the-writer]

death glares are apparently hard to draw but I did my best. She does not take even a single milligram of crap

reblog to save sanity

sometimes you need dialogue tags and don't want to use the same four

[dia-the-writer]

If you're reading this...

go write three sentences on your current writing project.

[dia-the-writer]

BIRTH - being born, “the BIRTH of the couple’s first child”

BERTH - giving someone a lot of space, “she gave the man a wide BERTH as she walked by”

IT’S NOT ‘PEEKED’ MY INTEREST

OR ‘PEAKED’

BUT PIQUED

‘PIQUED MY INTEREST’

THIS HAS BEEN A CAPSLOCK PSA

[dia-the-writer]

This took me way longer than it should have. Anyway. Her. No that bird is not her pet, she just has Disney princess-magnetism when it comes to birds because she sings like one. I didn’t call her WindSONG for nothing.

[dia-the-writer]

Thought I’d actually show you guys what my characters look like? So here’s Sylv

[dia-the-writer]

hmm probably Auretta. Or Destiny. Bc Kristi Ruth and Sylvestra are more or less self-inserts and they’re my favorites otherwise. But yeah Auretta is the stereotypical “tall person who wouldn’t hurt a fly” until you hurt one of her friends. Then she loses control. You are stuck in a small tornado and she’s threatening to fling you into the ozone layer. Honestly a lot of her inspiration was taken from Linh Song from KotLC except air instead of water.

If you had to brutally narrow it down to just one, who’s your favourite of your original characters?

[dia-the-writer]

about me my characters

Hello peoples! My name is Dia. I love writing and hope to get published one day (and I will totally tell you when and if that happens (in the very distant future because I am currently just a high school freshman)). anyway. I started this blog because I was seeing a whole lot of stuff on my dash that I really wanted to reblog but didn’t fit my main’s (@dia-the-fangirl) vibe, since that one’s just for fangirling shenanigans. I also had a whole lot of stuff in my head for my WIPs that I wanted to share with y’all, but my two favorites aren’t fandom. (I currently have the first three chapters of one posted on Quotev here.) So. HERE WE ARE!

now, since I have SEVERAL oc’s and that is what I mainly will be posting about, list under the cut.

Ex-Princess

Princess Sylvestra Coronis. 15. Human. Female, she/her. As outdoorsy as one can be when one lived in a castle for the first fifteen years of one’s life. Ridiculously protective of Auretta. Slight rivalry with Edana.

Auretta Windsong. 14. Sylph/air spirit. Female, she/her. 99% too pure for this world. Other 1% is “did you just hurt my friend? Prepare to die.” Often seen as child who needs protecting at all costs. Super strong emotionally.

Chantara Rapide. 16. Nixie/water spirit. Female, she/her. Bossy, confident, natural leader. lost her left leg at mid-thigh in an accident when she was younger, uses a prosthetic. runs the gang like the navy.

Edana Incendia. 15. Solun/fire spirit. female, she/her. takes "sarcastic" to a whole new level. rash and impulsive. huge temper. ridiculously protective of Auretta. huge softie inside but pretends otherwise.

Prince Avery placeholderlastname. 17. Elf. Male, he/him. Overinflated sense of justice. has a list of plans for when he's king a mile long. has a crush on Sylv and has since he was 14 but refuses to admit it to anyone.

School of Legends

Kristi Ruth Avila. 14. Female, she/her. aspiring writer. huge fangirl. books are her life. Tech crew theater kid. slightly autistic. tiny. don't make her mad or you'll end up with a pencil jammed up your nose.

Destiny Collins. 14. Female, she/her. theater kid who LOVES the spotlight. drama queen. enthusiastic about everything. has a hard time with the concept of personal space. morning person. tries to give KR makeovers but girl is Not Having It.

Everett Brady. 14. Male, he/him. introspective artist stereotype. gentle giant. doesn't read a whole lot or care about musical theater but knows almost everything about all of Des and Kristi Ruth's favorite books and shows from how much they jabber about them.

Xavier placeholderlastname. 14. Male, he/him. borderline tree hugger. nature photographer. Drama queen. Star Wars geek. Tries to get Everett to socialize and fails miserably. “You mean some people don’t like being around other people?”

This is the magic lucky word count. Reblog for creativity juice. It might even work, who knows.
