I read a book over Rosh Hashanah that like...the best way I can put it is that I really understand that for centuries, the only option available to queer writers who wanted to write about queer characters was to only show and never tell and not just that but to show veiled in symbolism and coding and open-to-reader-interpretation and plausible-deniability, and now we can be open and indeed proclaim it from the rooftops! But show-don't-tell is still in fact excellent advice for writing, and contrary to what Tumblr Writing Advice and The Fanfic Style will tell you, most people don't want to read pages of infodumping in their fiction, and unfortunately it feels like there is a generation of younger queer writers who are like "oh wait! I can tell you these characters are gay" and forget to like. write the fucking story around it. There's gotta be a happy medium here.

if that story is true and Moffat wrote the Doctor's Wife, why wouldn't he just give himself credit?

He didn't write the Doctor's Wife, exactly; it /is/ a work by Gaiman, it's just that Moffat is rumored to have done some pretty heavy rewrites which likely should have warranted a cowriting credit.

Quite honestly this is normal, pretty much any given episode you see is going to have a ton of input from the showrunner (yes, even the ones they said they didn't edit at all), and it's (to my knowledge) up to them if they feel that warrants a cowriting credit. If true, I'm sure Gaiman being a guest writer who's name would undoubtedly draw viewers was certainly a big factor in Moffat leaving himself uncredited; "co written by Neil Gaiman" is just not a good look for marketing.

(The only reason it's notable here is because Gaiman later came off as a bit unprofessional and vindictive toward the production over his second episode (which was very poorly received), usually describing it along the lines of him having wrote a great script he was very proud of and the people working on Doctor Who not understanding his vision or not giving him as much creative control. So "actually, it seems very likely that he had a lot of creative control on the bad one and a lot of rewrites and guidance on the good one" is just a funny little counter to it all.)

Aw the actors who voiced the FOP characters acted in mocap. I figured something like that was done but we got some bts. That’s awesome.

Here’s my final for my motion graphics class, my genuine pride and joy from the entirety of last year, the title sequence I made inspired by Skyjacks! This project took ages but it was so much fun and I really enjoyed the entire process of making it so… yeah!

Just read the ‘making of’ behind the scenes regarding the second season of House of the Dragon.

Taken from r/houseofthedragon

In between this, Eric Kripke’s gross behavior in regards to assault on The Boys, and, well, the behavior of the staff running the last season of The Bad Batch….

…I’m convinced it’s a combination of glue huffing, hubris, nepotism, and low bars that get people hired to write shows these days. I’m not even talking about The Witcher, which violated the Geneva convention with how much the writing gave fans physical pain.

Christ, during my dissertation process, I got annihilated by my committee over each word choice. I had to get rid of whole chapters*. I had to write memo after memo about chunks of word selections.

It was hard and brutal.

Still, I ended up with a PhD, and my work ended up being published in different journals when all was said and done. It was solid.

Why don’t mainstream writers deal with this?! FUCK!

*= I ended up taking one, polished it up, and sent it to a publisher. It’s now a chapter in a major textbook so there’s fucking that.
