I wrote a fic like this! It’s called Chance and it’s centered around the idea of restarting the game (in this case, Pokémon Platinum) and re-navigating events that no one else remembers but you. Also your old Pokémon don’t know you anymore. Also there’s queer and mental health sideplots. Anyway it’s here and if you don’t believe in reading I’m making it a podcast-audiobook. 

Me: haha funny silly lighthearted farming game!

My brain: so.. What if. You wrote a fic. Where your farmer character was ripped from his current reality/timeline and forced into a different nearly-identical timeline except it's 2-3 years back in time and all his life progress is lost and hes suddenly alone again with no way back home because his original timeline had been 'corrupted' and thus destroyed so there is no home to go back to now, and the only thing left intact is your characters memories and no one else remembers anything and its like starting his life all over again from scratch when he'd just married someone and the farm started self-sufficiently thriving? How much would that fuck him up, do you think?

Me: ...why are you like this

I went to a Q&A seminar with Antoni and Karamo and they told us that at Queer Eye auditions Jonathan literally ran from room to room yelling “WHERE IS SHE” over and over again and while everyone assumed it was about the casting director or something it was, in fact, about a Starbucks cup he’d lost, and I need you all to know that Jonathan lives on maximum 24/7. He is a force that cannot be contained

5 Questions the Miraculous Ladybug Writers Don’t Ask Themselves

writing fanfic like “am i getting the dynamics of this friendship right?” “would this character actually say this?” “what is the proper ratio of kindness to sass?” “am i falling prey to overused fanfic personality shortcuts or is this a canon trait?” “am i overthinking this so much that i will grind to a standstill out of sheer terror?”

The only way I’m accepting the shit that goes down in the beginning of Chameleon is if the whole class is just a Volpina illusion meant to akumatize one of the few people who’ve remained untouched.

Gabriel Agreste planning Villains’ Day

GA: Aight so first we’ll freak out the entire city, akumatize everyone, and send them to fight the heroes in rounds

GA: After each round we’ll get Dark Cupid to reakumatize them. We’ll send in specialized villains for things like tracking or swimming or targeting Queen Bee. Then we’ll send in the giants

GA: And if nothing else works, we’ll bring out the finale of my master plan!

Nathalie: Which is?

GA: I sneak up on them from behind

Nathalie: *spits out tea* you what

A faerie introduces himself. Then, holding out a hand, asks, “And your name, please?”

And, like a fool, you give it to him.

a (not-so) brief overview of markets that will pay you actual money in exchange for your short fiction

Writing is a rough gig. Get paid where you can. Here’s a bunch of places that will pay professional rates for genre (fantasy/science fiction/horror) short stories. All these markets take (and actually publish) unsolicited submissions – you don’t need an agent, and you don’t need to have previously published works. 

Remember to format your shit, write a simple cover letter, don’t send the same story to more than one place at a time, make sure submissions windows are actually open, and never respond to rejection letters ever. Have fun!

(Information gathered from both Submissions Grinder – an essential resource for people actively submitting their work – and my own excessive and somewhat ridiculous reading habits.)

Current as of May 2018. Markets are listed alphabetically. Detailed info below the cut.
