Me as a writer: I’m going to research every little thing that I’m referencing or using in my story world-building for authenticity and a more believable reading experience… until the reality of the things I’ve learned become inconvenient for the plot, in which case I reserve the right to suspension of disbelief.

#mod des #writing stuff #look I may be a linguistics grad student #but writing fiction (mostly fanfic lbr) is something I do for fun #so if a character needs to learn an entire language in a month for plot convenience then they will #this is not good writing advice for pros but like #if it’s just for fun don’t stress too much #just state it with confidence and people will go with it #i mean what are they gonna say?#‘the science in this story about dragons is unrealistic!’ lol okay
