#uuhhh not sure how all to tag the more psych part of this

[standsinthecorner]

actually rebloging this to add to it bc i just remembered this

THIS is an emotion identifying wheel and not only is it a fantastic resource for anyone whos having trouble either identifying what theyre feeling, putitng what theyre feeling into words, or figuring out why specifically theyre feeling some way, it is ALSO a wonderful writing resource to diversify your diction/vocabulary and not just use the same four words for emotions :D learned about these from a mental heath awareness event at my college and i still have a mini laminated one of these in my backpack. extremely handy both for writers and just In General for if you or someone you know is having a hard time doing the human emotion thing :D theres a few different versions but this is the most expansive one i could find the quickest o7

sometimes you need dialogue tags and don't want to use the same four

Thank you for the tags Lina (@scriptura-delirus) and Kesya (@by-moonflower)! 

Oops, it’s past midnight. I guess this is just my way of welcoming in the new year!

5. Dream of Me When You’re Awake - SKZ Seungmin

I’m honestly surprised that this is number 5 out of all my choices. I love this story so much, from the characterization to the world-building... I just had so much fun thinking about how I wanted to put the storyline together and figuring out how Seungmin would react to a place like Wonderland. It’s also one of my longer works among four that are above 10k words, and that means a lot to me for some reason. For me, a word count means that I let myself get carried by the story and that the words almost wrote themselves, considering I’m much more of a short story type person. DoMWYA doesn’t have that many notes, but it’s still one of my faves either way. 

4. #39 At a high school reunion - DAY6 Jae

Ah, of course, one of my favourites has to be a fic based off my all-time favourite tv show Psych. If any of you guys don’t know, my sense of humour is completely revolved around the first few seasons of that show. Seriously. My sister and I are both the only ones who get each other’s jokes. Anyways, I thought Jae really fit the concept, so when I got a request for him with this exact prompt, I was so excited. I think I wrote this short fic in a few hours, I was so into it. ALSO this was the first fic of mine that Kesya read and I kid you not I woke up to her notifications with an audible gasp. I’m still shocked we’re mutuals to this day because wow I saw her as a whole ass inspiration for a while before I even started writing. Wait I’m supposed to talk about the fic uuHHH yes I like it a lot. Fun banter and yearning all in one. Plus Psych.

3. Hood - TBZ

Yes this smau is ongoing but hot damn I’m loving it so far. It’s just so chaotic I can barely keep up and I’m the one writing the damn thing. I know lot’s of people are being silent readers too, so I’m not really worried about note count when it comes to individual parts. Crazy though that the masterlist is almost at 200! I think Hood has some of my best attempts at comedy, and I’m excited to continue writing it in the coming year

2. The Recovery Files - SKZ

This is a series, but whoa, it’s like this 🤏 close to being my top favourite fic of the year. I had so much fun with the concept, and like I’ve said before, I loved writing just dialogue. Spoken word in writing is definitely my strong suit, so working with it the way I did was so interesting. Honestly can I just make all my fics like this from now on? No narration, just dialogue please. Anyways read this please I beg. You won’t regret it I promise.

1. Bluff and Nonsense - SVT Hoshi

And, of course, Bluff and Nonsense comes out on top. I don’t even have that much to say about it honestly, I just love it. Like damn, I didn’t know I could write something so heart wrenching yet... subtle. I’m not sure anyone reading would call it “subtle” exactly, but I took a lot of care in the actions of Soonyoung and MC. Like, yes, I said some things outright, but it was the little things the characters did that I really liked. The way Soonyoung held MC’s hand even though no one was watching, not even MC........ wow I even love remembering it
