“Oh my god you’re a writer? Can I read your stuff?”

[lovemebutleavemewild]

“Finish what you start. This is true for any writer — the best way to learn about your story is to muscle your way to the end and look back. As my mother always taught me, ‘Perfect is the Enemy of Good’ and it’s a good thing to remember. Don’t kill your energy and love for a story by trying to get it perfect from the start. Just get to the end. It’s easier to rewrite than it is to write, and easier to fix problems once you know where you want your story to go.”

— Cristin O’Keefe Aptowicz’s advice for aspiring writers, as told to Maryann Yin for Galleycat (via bostonpoetryslam)

You know what really fucking Annoys Me about internet censorship is stuff like swear words being heavily censored because that's entirely an American cultural hangup being forced on the rest of us. I don't know a single country where swearing is as taboo as it is in America. In fact most languages have swear words that would have the same effect on an American as giving a Victorian chimney sweep a pepsi max cherry.

Dear everyone who is currently working on a Thing, whatever that Thing may be,

Good luck with the Thing. You can do the Thing. You will do the Thing. You just have to do the Thing.

Best wishes,

Someone who is also doing a Thing

"save me, substance abuse!" i cry. before you can moralize to me about the dangers of addiction, a noble and powerful steed gallops into the room - my horse whom i have named "substance abuse". you learn an important lesson about making assumptions. i snort a line off its back

like i'm sorry but we as a fandom have to stay firm on our anti-AI values. we cannot suddenly start giving AI a pass when it's something we "want to see" like destiel kisses. it's not suddenly fine. we're not going to start using AI to make fanfic scenes come to life or audio AI to make characters "say" stuff we want to hear. you have GOT to be firm on your anti-AI stance. if you start making exceptions then suddenly anything will fly. fandom is for real art and creations made by real people. no AI fanfics. no AI art. no AI rendered "bonus" scenes. no AI audio. none of it has a place here.
