How do you create the content you do with no shame? (This is not a jab, just a question asked out of needed advice. Sorry if the wording is harsh, English isn't my first language.)

I about had a heart attack when I first read this anon I'll be real, but no worries! English sucks as a language and is so heavily tone based it's ridiculous. As for your question, it's a cop out answer but honestly a lot of it came with age.

With content like my NSFW writings a lot of it comes from wanting to explore ideas that I wouldn't want to explore in my daily life, being asexual. With other content that might be considered "crack" or "Mary Sue" me writing and posting that comes from "yeah, and?" Growing older made me realize, too, that reading some mean words about this funky idea I had doesn't really do anything. Someone didn't like it, oh well, guess I didn't make it for them.

There is no shame in writing stories or creating content and even sharing it because first and foremost you are creating content FOR YOU. (Professional writing is it's own can of worms I'll skim over for now lol) I beat myself up a lot for things I wrote as a teenager and now I go back to read them and can't help but think, "Wow, this kid was having the time of their life." I look at old work and I LAUGH because I'm having a good time reading all these crazy ideas I was once ashamed of.

The very basics of creating content has always come from enjoying yourself while creating that content. I didn't know how to be ashamed or embarrassed of my writing until other people said I should be. It took a while for me to unlearn that and go back to wild ideas. I create content, first and foremost, because it's fun.

tl;dr: I create without shame because there is no shame in just having fun.

I just noticed you gave the ghostwriter your name. That's objectively a power move I'm gonna be real

Incorrect, I did an even bigger power move and I stole Ghostwriter's name for myself 😤

Have you watched S1 of Hazbin Hotel? I really like Husker's scenes

Absolutely in love with Huskers scenes and have watched Hazbin at least 3 times through now and desperately hoping someone commissions me to write for either that or Helluva Boss I love the shows so much and want an excuse to play with the characters like they're Barbie dolls.

random question, but have you ever been to sakura con?

No but I do want to when I get time and money for one! I've heard very good things about it!

[ibelieveinahappilyeverafter]

What would you do with Superman's powers?

Ngl, I would probably be very self-serving and not really use them except for myself like... flying around at night for funsies and doing hard labor for extra money because to me it'd be like picking up rocks and pebbles. I'd also have a lot of stupid "for the vine" moments

Don't know why but I picture Randy as a redhead. I know it's random but i feel it fits him. Though I'm guessing it's black like Andrew's? (Fun ask but no need to answer, tho I'm curious of your thoughts on this)

When they were alive Randy's hair was naturally a very dark brown, although he died it white in his teen years. His current ghost form, while similar to Andrew's in the fact he had grey skin and a white aura/outline, does continue to have white hair.

Here's a picture that was done by @aforetempus413, who has since closed or lost their account (not sure on their new one).

The full post is here, but it shows Andrew/Ghostwriter standing bext to Randy and how their forms look. (Randy's eyes are also blue!) ((He'd also probably be flattered to be thought of as a redhead, knowing him.))

How do you feel about dropping Danny Fenton the beloved ghostly disaster into, say, the My Hero or Pokèmon world?

I say the possibilities are endless and I can think of 3 different ways for those crossovers to work from ghostly shenanigans allowing world hopping to complete AU where instead of ghost powers Danny gets a similar quirk or in Pokemon his parents research ghost types and Danny gets a little fucked up

Hate to bother you about this, but has the Guardian series been discontinued?

No, the Guardian series hasn't been discontinued. I'm working on getting it back up and going, but life has been extremely busy and I've taken steps back from a lot of my fanfiction writing due to my commission writing and the fact I want to focus on finishing my schooling.

So I just discovered an incorrect quotes generator and this was the second result. I'm crying. This is too good. Andrew: Danny... Danny: Oh no, 'Danny' in B flat. Danny: You're disappointed

Is that not Iambic Prose summed up in one quote tho???

Oh wow, that’s cool! Over 50 sessions that’s impressive. I think? I only got into D&D recently, and I swear it seems like trying to get everybody to show up to our sessions is like pulling teeth LOL

Are you the DM or a player? Have you talked about the campaign on here before? Lol have you guys thought about doing a D&D podcast?

It is over two years worth of D&D sessions lmao, and trust me, getting everyone together is the hardest part. With my group, we're all a polycule who live together, so less missed sessions!

I am a player of our main session (I DM'd once and found it overwhelming, not my kind of storytelling!) and play a Storm Cleric (with a lvl or 2 in rogue for Character Development). I have a metal arm that shoots lightening!

Also I don't think we'd ever do a podcast where it would be too chaotic and would need *so* much editing for when we stop for snacks or get off topic for half hour long tangeants.

[ibelieveinahappilyeverafter]

Have you ever played D&D or something similar?

Sweetie I've been playing a campaign with my polycule since 2021 and we just had our 53rd session. I have def played D&D.

It's the trope of shipping a character with? Themself?? Either from an alternate timeline or their evil copy or whatever. Like Fenton x Phantom or whatever the Onceler and Sans Undertale fans had going on.

Oh, I have no problems with that. I know I've done some FentonxPhnatom stuff at some point in this blog's history, for sure. (And year, Onceler fans had their own wild thing going on lmao.)

[ibelieveinahappilyeverafter]

I am giving myself a stroke wrt trying to figure out how to ask if you're still okay with certain kinds of ship tropes cuz I think it might be problematic nowadays. the internet has made me too paranoid

You have my attention and you are absolutely valid. I will say that even if I do find something "problematic," I'm pretty good about the viewpoint that in fiction we can explore many different things without it being a signal that we support that and so on. (Plus I have many side accounts devoted to Problematic Things that y'all will never see. I also love so many ship tropes that these days are considered Problems.)

Please feel free to send me an ask about the trope either on Anon still, through a private ask, or PMs!

It's really kind of insane how obsessed I was with your danny phantom fics to the point that it inspired me to start drawing in like, middle school. I had nothing but notebooks on notebooks of people with wings but specifically the Chrystal design type wings. Changed my life trajectory I tell you. I am now attending double majoring in college and sometimes think about that. Domino effect of the highest degree

Hold up I'm just going to be over here SOBBING. God, I loved my DP fics and I miss them so much and it's SO GOOD to hear that people still remember so much of them so fondly. It is an honest delight to hear and I'm so hoping I'll get time soon to go back and work more on Guardians & From the Beginning.

Amazing work on getting into college AND double majoring (I could never) and thank you so much for the kind words that have me grinning stupidly over here.

[ibelieveinahappilyeverafter]

Congratulations!!! 🥳

Thank you so much!! 💙

Have you watched Dungeon Meshi/Delicious in Dungeon?

I have not, sadly, I have a lot of things I'm juggling right now so no time to get into anything else at the moment.
