real life

muse a e muse b são casadas fazem 5 anos e extremamente felizes. um dia voltando para casa depois de uma viagem para uma cidade ao lado a trabalho, muse a sofre um acidente grave, a deixando em coma por um mês e a fazendo perder 10 anos de memória. então muse a não faz a mínima ideia do que pensar quando acorda e vê muse b, sua melhor amiga de infância, alegando ser sua esposa.

muse a não é lá uma das pessoas mais inteligentes da faculdade e isso não é segredo para ninguém ali, mas com certeza é uma das mais queridas por ser super sociável. muse b por outro lado é intimidante, pois não economiza quando precisa ser fria com alguém, é uma das pessoas mais inteligentes que aquela faculdade já viu e é exatamente por isso que as duas nunca se deram bem desde que o curso começou. só que infelizmente, muse b é a ultima esperança de muse a tem de conseguir salvar o seu semestre. o problema é ultrapassar o orgulho e pedir para que ela lhe ajude a estudar para a semana de provas que está cada vez mais perto.

por ter se tornado mãe muito cedo por conta de uma gravidez acidental aos 18, muse a perdeu o apoio da família, dos amigos e até do pai da criança. entretanto, conseguiu se firmar estudando, trabalhando e cuidando de seu filho. quando o pequeno já estava com 7 anos, as coisas começaram a complicar no seu trabalho e muse a se viu sem escolha a não ser contratar uma baba fixa para que pudesse ficar um pouco mais de tempo trabalhando. muse b era apenas uma estudante buscando uma renda extra para pagar todos seus custos acadêmicos e quitar suas dividas, então não pensou duas vezes em enviar seu contato para esse anuncio na internet requisitando uma baba. ( @theoriginalvisual​ )

muse a e muse b sempre foram as melhores das melhores amigas. populares na escola, tinham todos os garotos que queriam as seus pés, todas as outras meninas queriam ser amigas delas e todo esse clichê. mas um dia muse a se viu pensando em sua melhor amiga de uma forma não tão amigável, enquanto muse b era simplesmente a pessoa mais hétero do planeta aos seus olhos. era definitivamente complicado ser apaixonada por sua melhor amiga quando a mesma tinha um namorado diferente toda semana. ( @princssanna​ )

muse a é cega, uma condição que adquiriu sofrendo um acidente em sua infância. tudo começou como curiosidade, mas de alguma forma muse b simplesmente se viu determinada em fazer que muse a visualizasse todas as cores e coisas bonitas do mundo apenas com descrições e sensações.

muse a sempre frequentava o mesmo café desde que entrou na universidade, e em um dia particularmente estressante, se vê gritando com uma das atendentes nova do local que a ignorou por alguns minutos quando tentou fazer o pedido. para muse b, a nova atendente do café, o dia estava super tranquilo então como estavam quase para fechar, decidiu desligar seu aparelho auditivo por alguns segundos, preferindo fazer suas tarefas finais sem a estática do mesmo. logo, não ouviu muse a chegar, nem os pedidos e apenas pegou o finalzinho de toda a gritaria, não tendo chance de se explicar antes que a outra saísse correndo do café.

muse a é roqueira, dona de uma banda famosa no underground da cidade enquanto muse b é da elite, musicista clássica e destaque da orquestra local. as duas se conhecem por amigos em comum e desde o primeiro segundo não param de se perturbar, entrando em uma competição de mostrar para a outra que o estilo musical que preferiam era o melhor.  ( @jendeukiies​ )

aquele clássico: oh shit eu acabei de descobrir que muse a é minha nova professora do departamento de x e eu posso ou não ter saído com ela algumas vezes nas férias. onde muse b acabou de voltar de viagem nas suas férias de faculdade e na primeira aula logo se depara com muse a, a mulher com quem teve um caso durante a viagem, como sua professora.

nsfw/cheating/etc?

muse a precisava de um dinheiro extra então por que não procurar um sugar daddy? sua curiosidade foi maior quando encontrou uma mulher no site, decidindo mandar uma mensagem para ela. conversaram bastante online até que muse a se sentisse confortável o bastante para ir conhecer a pessoa ao vivo. só que muse b decidiu deixar o detalhe que era uma das melhores amigas do irmão mais velho de muse a de fora. 

muse a e muse b são colegas de dormitório, mas nunca se falaram muito, já que são de mundos completamente diferentes. um dia muse a descobre que muse b é camgirl para uma renda extra, e desesperada para pagar algumas contas, muse a se junta a muse b depois de um convite da mesma, pensando que duas garotas iria aumentar ainda mais sua audiência. depois que um dos inscritos sugere que elas se beijem é que as coisas realmente começam a complicar para as duas.

muse a namora o irmão de muse b, e as duas se dão muito bem desde o começo. dividem momentos legais quando a casa está cheia, e momentos mais íntimos como conversas mais profundas quando acabam por se encontrar sem querer de noite na cozinha buscando um copo de água ou talvez apenas tomar um ar. em um momento em que a tensão está palpável e acabam por se beijar. desde então, não conseguem parar at all, até porque sentimentos estão surgindo e ficando cada vez mais fortes.

os maridos (ou namorados? podemos combinar) de muse a e muse b são colegas de trabalho e começam a sair juntos conforme a amizade vai crescendo, então obviamente muse a e muse b começam a frequentar algumas dessas saídas como double dates para apoiar a amizade dos maridos. o que elas não esperavam era se sentirem tão, mas tão atraídas uma pela outra. ( @princssanna​ )

fantasia/sobrenatural/etc

muse a é literalmente a morte. é uma sociedade onde várias almas perdidas acabam virando responsáveis por garantir que todos que morrem na terra encontrem seu lugar até o céu. ela cuida de uma pequena área e apenas fica com a aparência sobrenatural quando está de fato trabalhando. horários livres ela pode aproveitar de prazeres humanos com um corpo sólido e aparência normal. um dia enquanto está trabalhando, encontra muse b, uma universitária, olhando fixamente para si em choque, algo que jamais poderia acontecer pois apenas almas a enxergam nesse estado. ( @princssanna​ )

muse a é um anjo da guarda que nunca quis estar olhando humanos, então sempre fez um trabalho mais ou menos cuidando de muse b. mas conforme os anos vão se passando, ela começa a se apegar um pouco, se preocupar e cuidar de sua humana. tudo muda entretanto quando muse a se materializa de repente na frente de muse b. (ou alternativamente: muse a é um anjo super dedicado e muse b é extremamente cética.) ( @jendeukiies​ )

muse a é tatuadora e por mais que seja quietinha e tímida, sempre amou a ideia de soulmates e não vê a hora de conhecer a sua, totalmente hopeless romantic. soulmates se ditam por marcas iguais no corpo, como manchas. até que um dia muse b, que detesta tudo que tem a ver com essa história de soulmates, entra em seu estúdio pedindo se ela tatuava por cima de marcas também. o que muse a jamais imaginaria é que veria um reflexo de sua própria marca nas costas de muse b.

em um mundo onde soulmates são reais, todos os tipos de marcas que são cravadas na pele de um, aparecem também na pele de outro. muse a e muse b quando crianças não paravam de conversar por rabiscos corridos nos braços, pernas, onde fosse. muse a amava cada interação dessas que tinha com sua cara metade, até que um dia elas simplesmente pararam. isso normalmente significava algo ruim, então passou o resto de sua adolescência acreditando no pior. apaixonada por tudo relacionado a musica, muse a entra em uma dessas empresas de entretenimento buscando se tornar idol. muse b, que mesmo trainee já recebia muita atenção da mídia por fazer cfs e participar de mvs começou a passar maquiagem por todo corpo ao mando da empresa. talvez seja apenas questão de tempo para as duas perceberem que foram escaladas para debutar no mesmo grupo.

aurora e mulan de ouat but done right

muse a e muse b namoram já fazem alguns anos e estão mais felizes que nunca, pois são soulmates e se encontraram cedo. entretanto, os dois são muito mente aberta e livres sexualmente e decidem buscar por uma terceira pessoa só por uma noite. para entender quem estão levando para dentro de casa, antes sempre arrumam um encontro com a pessoa para depois curtirem a noite os três juntos. um dia eles dão match com muse c em um aplicativo de namoro e no encontro descobrem que ela tem exatamente a mesma tatuagem de soulmates que eles. (fxmxf ou fxfxf tudo de bom)

muse a e muse b não se suportam e hogwarts toda sabe disso. as duas discutem a cada oportunidade que arranjam desde o primeiro ano. um dia acabam por discutir sozinhas em um banheiro, e no meio da briga acabam por se beijarem, algo que jamais mencionaram novamente uma para a outra. logo após esse ocorrido, em uma aula de poções compartilhada, o cheiro que sentem na amortentia estranhamente bate com a descrição uma da outra, mas mesmo percebendo isso elas jamais vão admitir em voz alta.

Writing Advice - Part One

Writing Advice Series Masterlist

First off, I’d like to thank @time-for-a-lullaby for bringing up this topic and tagging me in her post about how to write multiple part fanfictions. This is something I’d been thinking about for quite a while. Getting tagged gave me the motivation to sit down and distill everything I know about story into a series of posts.

Introduction:

I love to write. For some people, it’s a calling. An urge we can’t help but satisfy. However, despite my enjoyment of the craft, learning to write took me years. It’s only now, after a decade of practice, that writing has become easier.

When I was little, my brother was diagnosed with dyslexia and the school informed my Mom that he didn’t know how to read. He was in the second grade. After years of covering it up, the chickens had come home to roost. My brother was embarrassed and upset, but my Mom was outraged that the school system had failed to teach him something as basic as how to read. She was ticked off (and remains so to this day) that it took them so long to notice his difficulty. Seething, and determined, she attended classes about how to teach dyslexic children to read and set off to tackle the problem. The trouble was, my brother didn’t want to learn.

He was no match for my mother. She struggled with him, in part, because of his defiance. Seeking to test her skills, she decided to try to teach me to read. I was in morning kindergarten at the time and when I came home, she’d let me play for an hour and then we would sit down on the couch. The reading books came out and I’d sound out words, learn my syllables, and fairly quickly I was able to read. (All credit where it’s due, my mother is an excellent educator and she was very patient with me. The fact that I learned fast was due to all the one-on-one attention I was getting.) When my brother saw that I could read, he became competitive and was extremely motivated to learn. My mother had killed two birds with one stone. She’d also opened up a new world to me. I loved the stories other people had written, and it wasn’t long before I wanted to craft my own.

Credit to those I’ve learned from:

Before I elaborate about how to write long form fiction, I’d like to give credit to my sources for this post and those who I have learned from.

Brandon Sanderson is a well known New York Times Bestselling author. In 2007, he was chosen to finish the fantasy series “The Wheel of Time,” after the creator of the books passed away. He’s won Hugo Awards twice, for Best Novella in 2013 and also for his podcast, “Writing Excuses,” a series that serves as an educational resource for aspiring writers. In addition to these contributions to writing, he’s an even better teacher. His class “Writing Fantasy and Science Fiction,” is recorded by the Brigham Young University and posted on YouTube every year. Watching his lectures changed the way I write.

Another writer I’ve learned from is Andrew Stanton. He’s a writer and director based at Pixar Animation and has worked on great movies such as “Wall-E,” and “Finding Nemo.” In 2012, he gave a TED Talk, entitled “The Clues to a Great Story.” When composing this piece, I revisited his talk to compose my outline. One of the great strengths of this talk is that it’s easily digestible because of the way he organized his thoughts. In the years since it’s been posted, I think I’ve re-watched his presentation about thirty times. Every time I watch it, I learn something new. And it’s only twenty minutes long.

Plotting a Story

Know your punchline and pay off your promises. These are two of the best pieces of advice on writing I’ve ever been given.

Andrew Stanton talks about “knowing your punchline,” to open his TED Talk. Telling a joke is like telling a story, he claims. After some experience I’d say this is excellent advice. When you write a longer story, it’s imperative that you have something waiting for the reader at the end.

Good stories have a feeling of inevitably about them. The audience suspects the ending, but it still comes as a surprise. How do writers do this? They built towards it, the same way a joke builds towards the punchline. A great example of this is Paul Harvey. He was a radio show broadcaster who had a show called, “The Rest of the Story,” which told short stories related to current events. Whatever was going on in the news, he’d research out the topic, and come up with an episode for his show. His catchphrase was “in a moment, you’ll know… the rest of the story.” During the 50’s and 60’s he was a household name. In his time, he was as well known as Anderson Cooper is to our generation.

One of his best broadcasts on the Paul Harvey Show was “The First World Series.” In it he talks about the worst pitcher to ever throw a game. The whole show is about how terrible this guy was, how he nearly lost the World Series of Baseball. Then in the third act, he flips the story around and tells you who this pitcher actually was, and you’re shocked. And he manages to do this all in less than 4 minutes of air time. “The First World Series,” is a perfect example of having a card up your sleeve, a payoff waiting at the end for a reader to enjoy. They keep listening, or reading, or watching, because they know you’re going to tell them something worth hearing.

Stories tend to follow a three act structure. In the “First Act” you set up your conflict. During the “Second Act” you give him lots of problems to deal with as he tries to solve the conflict. Our “Third Act” wraps up the story with a satisfying ending that ties off all the problems the hero has experienced throughout the book. During these acts a writer needs to be weaving a trail of breadcrumbs to pull the reader through the story and hold their interest. They’re sharing a treasure map that shows images and actions and emotions, but in order to grasp them you have to read between the lines. Readers want to work for their pay off. They want you to illustrate, not explain. Good writing is as much about not putting certain things on the page, as it is about filling a page.

The goal of the First and Second Acts are to foreshadow and hint towards the revelation of the Third Act. You have to keep the yarn spinning with dramatic suspense to hold the reader's attention. Just like a Magician you’re hiding the mechanism of the trick being played. Unlike a magician you’re going to lift the curtain during the Third Act and let the reader in on the secret. You’re going to tell them the punchline and pay off the promise made by the premise of your First Act.

Brandon Sanderson talks about promises and payoffs when he discusses how to construct a plot. This is the same idea as knowing your punchline. Readers always know what you promised them, even if they’re not consciously aware that they’re thinking this.

Let me illustrate a scenario for you to prove my thesis. You’re in a store and you pick up a novel. The cover has a shirtless Scotsman in a kilt holding a woman in his arms. She’s draped around him like a vine and their lips are almost touching. Automatically, you expect this book to be a romance novel and you want the hero to get the girl and for the woman to find her happy ending. In the three seconds it took you to examine the cover art, the writer has made their promise and your expectations have been set for the story’s ending.

Now, here’s where stories go wrong. Pretend you’re reading the romance novel with the Scotsman. In the middle of the book, the Scotsman is shot dead by an arrow. Raiding Vikings have shown up and they’re here to pillage the castle and kidnap the women. Your heroine is taken to Norway where she becomes a pagan priestess. Guess what? Your readers are now pissed off. They wanted a Scottish Romance and you gave them an adventure story. Perhaps the story you wrote was great. It could have been the best book ever written, Hugo Award winning quality, but they are boiling with outrage. They’ve been lied to and now they’re going to throw your book across the room. When they pick it up again, it will be to make a mental note of your name, so they can be sure to never pick up anything written by you again. They’re justified in this act, because you lied to them. And readers hate nothing more than being lied to about what to expect from a novel.

More evidence from this can be found in the Marvel fandom. Steve Roger’s ending in the last Avengers movie is a prime example of a broken promise. We wanted to see Steve reunited with Bucky. Given that all of his prior actions had been building towards this point, it was what felt like the inevitable, expected ending. We showed up at the theatre hoping they’d pay off their promise and we expected. Then…well, let’s not bring up past traumas.

Closely related to promises and payoffs and knowing your punchline, is the classical storytelling tool that playwrights call “Chekhov’s Gun.”

The rule of Chekhov’s Gun is that if you put a gun on the mantle in Act One, you have to shoot it in Act Three. What this means for writers is that writers need to make their promise clear and then circle back to it for the payoff in Act Three. You don’t make false promises (as Marvel did with Steve Roger’s character) or take the readers down an unrelated pathway as the story progresses. You’re building up to the moment when the gun comes off the mantle.

When I was writing “Restitution,” I started with the intention to create a short story like “But I Do Love You.” The plan was to wrap up the plot after eight or nine chapters. Then in the process of editing, I reread the second chapter and found that I’d hung a gun over the mantle. During the conversation with her boss, there’s a mention of a meeting with the FBI. I smacked myself in the forehead and realized that “eight or nine chapters” wasn’t going to cut it anymore. There was a gun hanging over the mantle, and if I was going to do the story right, I had to shoot it. As a novelist putting the gun over the mantle happened by accident for me. It’s an instinct you develop the more you write. I subconsciously put in a detail that I could circle back to later. When I saw what I’d done, I knew I had to “balance the equation” by solving the problem I’d unwittingly set up.

An excellent example of Chekhov’s Gun is from the story “Twilight,” by Stephanie Meyer. In the opening of the movie version, Bella narrates:

“I’d never given much thought to how I would die. But dying in the place of someone I love… seems like a good way to go. So I can’t bring myself to regret the decision to leave home.”

Then the camera cuts to her in the desert with the plant, and they begin from the true starting point of our narrative. This story about how Bella will die takes place in the prologue when you read the “Twilight” novels. It’s a type of Chekhov’s gun moment that Meyer used to create a sense of pace in her books. We were racing towards the Third Act from the opening line, dying to find out who Bella wanted to die in the place of, and what had happened after she left home.

In the novels, Meyer had shown us that the gun was going to come off the mantle and promised that it would be pointed at Bella. We didn’t know what events would trigger this dramatic twist in the plot, but the author’s promise had captured our imagination. There was a sense of urgency because we knew Bella was going to come face to face with death by the end of the book. We had seen the silhouette of the gingerbread house that Meyer’s breadcrumb trail was leading us towards and it placed a looming threat over the First and Second Act of the story. As criticized as it might be, Stephanie Meyer’s “Twilight” was a masterclass in how to hold dramatic suspense.
