Anyways I'm falling back down the UTMV rabbit hole and making an AU type thing, but just with the Sanses because I'm insane(aren't we all)

ANYWAYS X2 my little AU idea is ofc using the NMs castle idea and it's like kind of a fantasy world also Cross is a Lycan HEHEHEHE I'm losing my mind I feel 14 again /pos

I really think the best part of bubbline is the "meeting your soul mate at the wrong time" thing. Absolutely fire. Incendiary even.

Trying to finish writing my week 4 dhkinktober smutfic while everything is on fire at work and I’m hopelessly anxious and depressed is… challenging lmao

It's a reader-insert slow burn with Mike and his personalities as the love interest. Minus Chester. He just stays a grumpy old man.

Involves a devisive plot that I came up with three years ago that, unlike the rest of the book, was actually good. No spoilers, though

This is definitely being posted to my ao3, but I want to know if anyone here would read it

[valcubust-writes]

not me starting another interactive fiction project

[clownjail]

people who write 10k or even 5k for one chapter are not only gods strongest soldiers but are god’s best soldiers, and deserve all the support and love in the world, because me personally I get up to 2k and want to end it all

hi abram

i have come baring writing questions

21. can you accurately predict how long your fics are going to be? if you can, what is your secret?

24. Thoughts on flashbacks/flashforwards.

thanks bestie!

hi miels sweetheart!!

21. can you accurately predict how long your fics are going to be? if you can, what's your secret?

FAMOUSLY NOT!!! real life text i've sent my mother:

(i don't remember which fic the text was about specifically, but those specific numbers are about the first chapter of (wit)jitp, which was originally planned to be 2k but the og oneshot version was 7k lmao)

it has happened on........ a LOT of occasions where i will have an idea and go "yes, this time. This Time it will only be a 2-3k short little oneshot. i just have to plot it out a little bit- *writes 5k of plot, notes, ideas, scenes, etc* THIS FIC IS GOING TO BE 20K+ AGAIN GODDAMNIT"

the ONE FIC I have ever been CORRECT about my word count was "heartbeats carved in flesh"!!! I thought maybe 15k and i was actually right for once and I was SO PROUD OF MYSELF for that one.

so if anyone else knows the secret please tell me cus I'd love to know too 😭😭😭

24. Thoughts on flashbacks/flashforwards.

i think it depends bc they can be absolutely amazing! they can really aid the story and inserting that kind of context in the middle can make moments more impactful for sure. but I think if there are way too many, or they are just not used well, then they can be somewhat distracting or confusing. but that goes for a lot of elements of stories, they can be well used or not lmao

but ultimately on a personal level I don't really mind them! I've read fics that have used them liberally and that have only had one for one specific moment and I've loved them!

Unpopular opinion: the heavy push toward anti-advertising on Tumblr does nothing to harm the advertisers you hate but is doing a huge amount of damage to small businesses who rely on reblogs to get the word out about their stuff.

[peofun1]

Done it again 🌸

[elletromil]

why does it take time to write words?

[miuszn]

currently writing bouncer!ellie x bottlegirl!reader hehe this is my fav fic of mine so far >_<

[codgod]

oh yeah i decided to go with writing out the whole fic and Then publishing like a chapter every couple days or something because i can already tell this is gonna need some heavy editing, especially since i’ve never written any of these characters before and i Assume i’m gonna have a better handle on them by the end so i can go back and fix the beginning lol

[emptycoffeemug]

bibbity bobbity blesses you with the ability to write your stuff

Preview of the Bro/Dave fic I'm workin' on:

[Scene: roadside motel, 6:53 AM]

You look over at the side table. The apple juice is looking pretty tempting right now.

You grab it and twist the seal open with a crackle.

"Is that my apple juice?" Dave mumbles out against his pillow. Shit.

"'S mine now."

Dave turns to glare at you. You can hear him communing telepathically with you. 'Try it, motherfucker.'

You try it.

And get a mouthful of bitchslap.

Dave snatches it away from you without spilling a drop and sits up to drink it. "Can't fuckin' sleep with you being all loudly silent, anyway. I can practically hear your brain going 'tick-tock, Dave, time to wake up, Dave, you sleep too much, Dave, did you know I'm a big fucking douche, Dave?'" he rambles on while walking into the bathroom.

"So what happened to all the towels?" You call out.

"Shut the fuck up."
