Do you ever write a sentence and then realize “Nah, that’s too self aware for you” and backspace a bunch of times.

*In writing terms, an architect is someone who plots out, plans, and outlines things before drafting. A gardener is someone who takes an initial idea and then just writes, seeing how the idea grows without specific plans.

Some people use the terms “plotter” and “pantser” (as in, going by the seat of their pants) for these writing styles, but I prefer architect and gardener.

Actually fanart and fanfic are often compared but the funniest point of comparison is how you express that you like it. Like it's pretty common and welcome praise to tell a writer they get the voice of a character perfectly or whatever but if you told a fanartist "this is great I can really tell this is that character" you would sound insane

some of you think ‘nuanced’ only means ‘morally grey’ and I’m here to tell you that actually straight up good characters can still be nuanced and unapologetically evil characters can still be nuanced. the character doesn’t have to be an anti hero or morally dubious to have depth. they don’t even have to feel sorry about their crimes to have depth.

There's a lot of Danny and Izuku on my dash so I decided to combine them. I think it'd make a really fun Au. Kinda half assed the design tho...

To most people he's just some kid who goes to U.A's general studies course and gets bullied pretty often. Little so they know he fights ghost as a phantom and protects the city from things the heros can't normally see. He can also see OFA's past vistages and talks to them frequently. Eventually Principal Nedzu finds out and shoves him into 1-A.

hey just for the record, if you’re on r/ao3 and keep running into these kinds of comments on bookmark related posts — it’s not a good take. calling someone’s writing “slop” and saying it deserves criticism for being bad BECAUSE it’s posted publicly might seem like a nuanced take, but I promise it isn’t.

yes, sometimes us writers get a little too obsessed over a cryptic comment or bookmark; no, that doesn’t actually mean the solution is to say whatever you want in them because authors “deserve” your honesty. 

I know we’re in a touchy time for readers and writers, but comments like these are NOT kind, refreshing, or nuanced. they’re just kind of mean and discouraging.

This was supposed to be day 3 but nvm, I hope you guys like it anyway!

Hardest part of writing is accepting that some people will not fucking get it & you just have to like cope with that because over-explaining it just makes it worse

I have a vision..

Original video from ayrinkk on TikTok

(I’m still not done with my drawing, but you see my vision right?)

Idk if it’d be possible, but it’d be so cool to have all (or at least some TwT) NariLamb renditions of various artists

Uhm- I hope I’m asking this correctly? ;w; it’s just a fun idea I had..

"if you're going to write dark fiction you should explicitly state that it's not okay to do in real life so that a child doesn't see it and think it's okay"

actually i don't cater my art to children, my art is not intended for children, and it's not my responsibility to parent them. hope this helps

authors!!

quick question...

also can you remember where you first uploaded your first ever fanfic??

[inbrightshadows]

"writing about fucked up things doesnt indicate your values as a person" and "the way you write about things may indicate some of your values" are not conflicting statements if im going to be real
