Do you have any tips for writing fics?

I've recently decided to get into writing again, but I've been struggling a bit with it widhwkdj-

Do you have any advice on it, how to improve, or just any tips that have helped you?

Thank you in advance, i absolutely love ur fics btw :D

I'm so glad you love my fics!

Writing tips are sooooooooo tricky for me...hmmm...well I think the main thing is the unfortunate truth of just writing. Don't overthink it as you go, don't try to make every detail perfect, just WORD VOMIT and then you can always go back and edit!

I also think that you should always write what you feel like writing. That's why TTSBC and TT are written the way they are, so I can bop around. And I know most of the time it's like 'but it's fanfic you don't write what you don't feel like writing!' which is true but if you write in long form you can get hung up on certain scenes and then not finish anything.

Ramble ramble ramble...something about how you should just WRITE! If you need to skip scenes, skip them, if you wanna just do dialogue, just do dialogue, just get words on the page!

As far as any technical help...hmmm...I mean, one thing I find always helps is to keep in mind how immersive little details can be!

For example in Handshakes and Headaches, when the story switches to Hypno's POV, he only refers to Scar and Grian as 'Professor Goodtimes' and 'Professor Slab' because of course he does. He's their student, he would never consider them by first name even internally, so the narrator when in his perspective also doesn't do that.

Keep in mind what your POV character knows and what they care about!

Another example I like is with Scott and Jimmy in TTSBC!

If we're in Scott's POV, you're going to find him noticing a lot more about peoples body language and expressions, very small details that don't come up as much in other POVs from TTSBC.

If we're in Jimmy's POV, you won't notice those things as often, but you're definitely gonna know what the weather is like, how bright the lighting is, if it's hot or cold, because of his love of the sky and fresh air. Those are things that matter to Jimmy as a character, and therefore they matter to the narrator!

I hope that helps some! Happy writing!

Astral Travel or Imagination?

How to tell if your mediations are real- Via telepathic communication with King Asmodeus.

I sometimes have trouble trusting my intuition on what I see or conversations I have while in meditation. So Asmodeus helped me come up with ways to know, I thought this may help others if they have similar experiences.

Do they feel real? (mentally or emotionally) If you concentrate hard enough can you physically feel something. (like a chair perhaps the texture, the coolness or warmth of it ect)

Do you lead the meditation or does it lead you? Unlike lucid dreaming where if your in control then it's not just a dream. In the astral alot like the 3D you can't control everything, yes you can control your actions and to a certain extent the environment. (like your safe space) But you can't control other beings or what happens around you. If you feel like you are it's probably imagination & not actual astral travel.

If you're walking (or flying) around and it looks like areas you've never seen before or beings you've never come across (That you didn't know about in the waking world but find out they exist after) or a word pops into your head that you aren't familiar with but upon researching you find out it's real and it's connected to the meditation, then it's probably an accurate astral (or Underworld) meditation.

Communicating with other beings or deities and making sure it was an accurate conversation is a bit trickier. Since you cannot read another's mind (human or not) at least not the one's I work with.

Some ways though would be, are they telling you what you want to hear? Is everything great and you never have issues (unless you create drama on purpose)

Who leads the conversation? Did you learn anything new or are you just feeding your own ego? Do you agree on everything? Probably not a real conversation then.

Do they tell you things you don't agree with? Things you may not know or haven't considered?

Things that may even make you uncomfortable? (Especially in working with Demons, Angels & Trickster Gods.) That was probably a real conversation. Really if you gain something from it then it doesn't really matter.

Ways to know or confirm once you wake in the 3D.

Ask whatever beings (if you can) if what you experienced was true! Where they really there? Was it an accurate conversation? What were they trying to show you?

You can do this through channeling (via another person or yourself) Tarot or another form of divination.

Do not wait months (like I did) for confirmation or signs. If one does pop up (an actual image of an item you saw in astral and thought it didn't exist, A quote, a video that correlates.) months, weeks later. Then it is probably significant.

That item is important or the entity it is tied to (if you know there is one) is probably trying to reach out and remind you of something.

In conclusion there is not definitive way of proving your meditations are real so just be aware, follow your instincts and don't jump to conclusions!

Getting back on track after a slump

Life is non-linear as it turns out. Sometimes you're doing great and then all of a sudden you're completely thrown off and are struggling to get up.

It happens to pretty much everyone, and even though you can't really prevent a slump from happening, you can use this advice to help you get back on track

Make a list of what you have to do Sit down, make yourself some tea or coffee and just start writing what you need to do. Missed a deadline with that unfinished paper? Write it down, add a sub-bullet to ask for an extension/send an email explaining your circumstances to your professor/teacher (they're also human, chances are if you notify and explain the situation to them, they will do their best to help you).

Break down those tasks into sub-tasks. By simplifying and breaking down your tasks into smaller chunks you're not only making it easier to do them, but you're also helping yourself get rid of some anxieties or fears since that task now looks much easier and more manageable to accomplish.

Update or create a new routine. Whether your routine contributed towards this slump or not, its always good to update your routine as you grow and change. What may have worked then may not necessarily be appropriate or helpful now. We humans are creatures of change, it's only natural that we outgrow our past.

Take it slow when easing back into your routine. Going too fast can actually be counter-productive, because you should be naturally aligning yourself with it and not forcing yourself into something you're not completely ready to follow. Trying to overcompensate generally isn't a good idea, as putting extra pressure on yourself especially when you're just trying to get everything sorted may not end very well.

Write down your goals and dreams to help you get motivated. It may seem difficult and at times pointless to try and get back on track, and reminding yourself about your goals and aims can definitely encourage you to take the steps to getting back on track or starting over.

Talk to someone about what you're feeling and going through. Your school or uni have counselors and people who can help you get through this if you require help. You don't necessarily have to jump straight into it, just start with a friendly email briefly explaining the situation and go from there.

Navigating European Etiquette: A Traveler's Guide to Avoiding Common Pitfalls in Croatia

Planning a trip to Croatia? 🇭🇷 Before you go, check out my latest blog post on European etiquette and tips to avoid common tourist traps. Trust me, it'll save you some euros! 💶 #TravelTips #Croatia #TravelSmart #vacation #holiday #travel #euro #money

Following my last post, I received quite a few requests to share more about Croatia and my experience in Split. I understand that many of you, especially those from the US, may not be familiar with this beautiful part of the world, and that makes sense given the distance. However, what did surprise me during my trip was just how many American tourists I encountered—by far the largest group in…

Doing a road trip from Vegas to all the Utah national parks and multiple state parks and national monuments next month. Anyone got any tips or any places I should check out? I probably have most of the open spaces saved but lesser known places are good to know and even more so I'll take some food recommendations or just general tips :)

We are renting a jeep so dirt roads are fine ❤️

Just a photo of my cat watching travel videos with me in preparation, for visibility's sake.

Back to uni to-dos: Final year edition

This will be my final year at university, which in itself is honestly unbelievable. Here's a list of things to do before and during your final year, although anyone can benefit from this advice!

1.Review your graduation requirements Make sure that everything is on track grade-wise and that you have enough credits to graduate. If there are any issues, meet with your academic advisor so that you have enough time to fix everything and graduate hassle-free.

2. Fix your sleep schedule before your classes are due to start. You can't be productive if you're always sleep-deprived and running on coffee. Your final year is especially important, so you need to be able to focus, which is practically impossible if you're sleep-deprived.

3. Exchange contact details with your favorite professors, advisors, etc. This may be a cultural thing, but here it's quite usual to remain in contact with your professors. You don't have to be facebook friends, but having someone you can ask for advice or request a LinkedIn recommendation from may be useful, which leads me to the next point.

4. Update your LinkedIn & other profiles This includes updating your email address to something more professional because the email address you had since you were 12 is unlikely to be all that professional now. Add any experience that you may have, whether it's an internship, freelancing or a job placement etc.

5. Plan what comes after or review your plan Are you jumping into a masters degree? Freelancing? Working abroad? Not many people have a 100% finished plan, but it does help to research your options and have an understanding of what you want to do after. Things change and as the past year has shown, some previously considered options are definitely not it.

6. Career fairs and networking events Chances are you may have attended some, but for final years these things are especially important. You have a chance to personally meet recruiters and to exchange contact details which may come in handy in the future. Obviously you can do that via LinkedIn, but I for one think that talking in person can add more of a personal touch. Regarding networking in general, it doesn't necessarily have to be a formal affair. Sure there are those formal meetings but they don't always have to be. There are plenty of facebook groups e.g. marketing, women in finance etc. which you can join and ask for mentoring, advice or even if you can meet up for a coffee and a chat. Alternatively, your university most likely has a careers/guidance office where you can find out about any networking meetings or organizations that have events going on.

7. Create an application schedule Many firms open their graduate student program applications at a certain time, so depending on where you're applying, or if you're skipping that, a schedule is a good idea. If you're targeting different sectors then your resume will have to be altered a bit to make it appropriate for the job that you're applying for. Many jobs also require cover letters, so it may be a good idea to have a rough template so that you know what exactly it is that you're supposed to include and then edit accordingly.

8. Try to get some work experience It doesn't have to be full-time at an office type of work, but any experience is good. Freelance language tutor, an internship, volunteer work, writing for your uni's paper. Experience doesn't automatically guarantee you a job, but it can be beneficial in standing out or giving you an extra boost.

9. Try to get some extra qualifications A language proficiency test, a coursera course (there are quite a lot of free ones), a LinkedIn powerpoint course, Code First Girls javascript course (also free!). You can add quite a lot of skills to your LinkedIn profile, but you do need to be able to back them up. These extra courses and qualification aren't just good for your resume, but they're also a good way for you to develop new skills and develop new interests. And who knows where they might end up taking you. My teachers former student ended up finding herself a husband on a study abroad language program in Korea and now they're happily married and living in Japan I think.

10. Make the most of it Uni certainly has it's ups and downs, but for most it's a pretty rewarding and occasionally enlightening journey. You may have different feelings towards it, but it is coming to an end so make some good memories.

11. Remember that life will go on after uni Many people may feel odd after graduating, you just spent 3-4 years living your life as a student and now you're not. Your previous routines that worked before may not work anymore. You may not be as close to your former dormmates. You may drift apart from your college bestie. But life goes on. Many things may stay the same and even more things may change and that's ok.
