IT'S HERE BITCHES!!!!

get my writing course "WRITE LIKE A BEAST", i poured my blood sweat and tears into this. i made this course because i know a lot of you who read my content want to be able to write yourselves or make your own analyses or fanfiction and whatnot (and i want to see more of it from ya'll too!). for those who are wondering how I'm able to write as much as i do now and crank out this many analyses, THESE are the tricks and techniques i've acquired over the years to improve as a writer and write more. no matter what it is you want to write, this course will help you with ANY form of writing. i go over methods that are universal such as overcoming writer's block, becoming more confident in your writing (which i hope you all will be after this course), and unlocking your creative potential. the course is only $80, but you can set up a payment plan instead where you only pay $40 now and the rest later if that's more affordable to you.

Maggie Stiefvater's Writing Course

Greetings and salutations, ghouls.

I recently enrolled on Maggie Stiefvater's Writing Course.

As I go through it, I will be compiling my thoughts. I'll make a separate post once I'm done.

Happy writing!

Some spins on the "mostly male team with a token woman" trope:

The woman is trans and stayed in her old circle of bros even after transition

The woman is the only one in her circle of "girls" who didn't turn out to be a trans man

after watching several povs, there's something so striking about the way mumbo died.

he dies at home, first of all, which is notable in its own right because so much of his time was spent running about, usually in pursuit of kills. he dies with grian, too— to a thing grian created, no less, but it isn't actually grian's fault for once.

mumbo dies in that tall tower and when lightning strikes, from all across the server, everyone looks. their eyes land on that tower, and everyone is watching. even in grian's perspective, you can see everyone at renwood mound, lined up and staring. those at the bamlands looked on too.

they didn't see mumbo die, but they saw grian's grief. grian, who, throughout this season, has seemed cruel and untouchable to those outside of his circle due to his involvement with and knowledge of the wild cards. they watch grian immediately crumble under the weight of mumbo's death; several of them even explicitly comment, "look at grian, he's grieving, he's in mourning."

i like to think that, until that moment, grian was almost god-like in their minds; now, though, he's the quintessential concept of humanity. grief can be religious if you do it right, after all. even beyond the grian aspect though, isn't this just the most despairing omen of what's to come?

i mean, there's something about this image of a man fallen from grace, crying out as he holds the mangled corpse of his friend in the home they made together, high in the sky, on display for all the world to bear witness to. and the world did bear witness, be it with pity, horror, joy... it doesn't matter, because they saw.

the canary curse has been broken, but this was a fittingly foreboding, tone-setting image that did a stunning job filling its shoes

Brilliant New Course on C.S. Lewis

Fans of C.S. Lewis who would relish a month-long journey through his work must consider a brand new course designed by Dr. Brenton Dickieson of Signum University.  Ink Spots and Tea Stains offers the very best of combinations: “academically serious but . . .  focused purely on the love of learning and the joy of studying the material.” And what an amazing subject you will explore – a unique…

nanami kento is the kind of man that makes people swoon without even realising it.

he's the kind of man to walk into a luxury store after work, suit jacket folded over one arm and a bouquet of flowers in the other -- his blonde hair still mostly perfect from the high-end pomade he uses. he scours the shelves, frowning to himself, while the attendants whisper and giggle amongst themselves near the tills -- an argument over who will be the one to talk to him, because he's intimidatingly pretty.

("just look at him," one whispers. "he's definitely buying something for a girlfriend."

"a wife," another disagrees. "c'mon. he's giving husband vibes."

someone hums. "but i can't see a wedding band."

"his mother, maybe?" says one other. "oh, i love when guys come in shopping for their mother."

"nobody's mother is getting a bouquet of a hundred red roses--")

eventually, one of them is volunteered as a sacrifice -- smiling and sweet as all attendants should be, she clears her throat. the others, crowded around the till, watch the exchange closely. "excuse me, sir. is there anything we could help you with today?"

her mouth is dry and her hands are clammy -- and when he fixes her with those narrow, burning eyes, her throat bobs.

"ah, yes." and his voice is deep and gravelly and drawling, and her stomach turns. she can only imagine what her coworkers are thinking -- hell, she can only imagine what she's thinking. her mind has stopped short. "my girlfriend likes this brand quite a bit. i thought i'd pick her up something..."

disappointment brews in her stomach -- and it's stupid, she knows it's stupid, because obviously a guy like that is taken. and -- she glances down at the roses -- obviously he treats her super fucking well. of course he does, because why wouldn't he? "oh, perfect! do you have anything in mind?"

"well, actually..."

he ends up buying one of the priciest gift boxes available -- fancy body care and perfume laid out in their signature boxes, decorated with ribbon and dried lavender -- no argument, no fight. he doesn't look for something cheaper, doesn't try to haggle or remove something to decrease the price. he adds, and adds, and adds -- and when she mentions a special offer at the till, a little add on for an extra 2000 yen, he accepts it readily. he inserts a black card into the card machine (of course, a black card), takes the beautifully wrapped bag, and thanks the girls for their services -- and just as he's leaving, his phone rings.

of course he answers the phone with hello, darling. of course he begins to ask his girlfriend about her day, the girls think with some amount of annoyance -- of course. maybe the curse of retail isn't entitled assholes expecting you to wait on hand and foot for them -- maybe it's the handsome men coming in to splurge on their girlfriends while you're painfully single and working for pennies.

Here is why the everyday daybook is also listed under ceremony - I thought if I could actually get the daybook to print on long sheets of copy paper it would make a cute graduation gift as a scroll.

Business Writing That Actually Works

Effective communication is an essential skill in business, and mastering this through professional writing courses can be invaluable. Few people have a problem communicating face to face with a boss, colleague, or client. However, the transition to writing, something you can learn in a writing course, can be more challenging.

When speaking with someone in person, there are a number of extra cues used to convey information, including tone, pitch, body language, and facial cues. None of these translate to the written word, which can leave some people struggling to communicate exactly what they’re trying to say clearly and effectively. This can be a problem.

By enrolling in writing and communication courses, specifically writing skills courses, you can learn to write clearly, consistently, and concisely. Such skills, as offered in professional writing courses online, can pay dividends throughout your work life and beyond. One such course is Business Writing That Works, which provides writing skills training.

Learning to write clearly, consistently, and concisely can pay dividends throughout your work life and beyond. These skills are available to you by enrolling in our writing course.

Below is a taste of what you can expect.

What You’ll Learn

It’s difficult to grasp how to do something properly without first understanding how you’re doing it wrong. We’ll begin with a thorough introduction to some of the common mistakes people make, and how these can be problematic in business.

You’ll start repairing old habits by learning how proper word selection can clear up your message. You’ll discover how writing to your audience, and only including the information they need to hear, can help with focus and clarity.

We’ll discuss common grammatical and usage errors, as well as subtle stylistic mistakes that can rob your writing of authority and precision. We’ll see how using a readability index to judge your writing can give insight into areas where you need improvement.

Even experienced writers don’t get everything right in their first draft. They go back and revise, and then revise again. You’ll learn tips and tricks around proofreading — when you should do it and what you should be looking for.

Finally, we’ll bring everything we’ve learned together and apply it to real-world examples of common business writing. You’ll see how business letters, emails, memos and more can all be improved dramatically by putting the lessons you’ve learned into practice.

Who Will Benefit from This Course?

Nearly everyone! Unless they’re a professional writer, almost everyone suffers from a few bad writing habits. Many people have quite a few, even those with good writing skills! If you find that your business writing isn’t on par with that of your colleagues, or you know that improving your skills could have positive ramifications for your professional life, this course is for you.

I’m currently thinking about an AU where the Justice League confuse Danny for Jason.

Like, they know Batman’s second Robin met an unfortunate end, & now his newest partner is the ghost of an upbeat, scrawny, teenage boy.

Excuse them, for thinking the ghost being Batman’s dead son was more believable then Batman somehow having picked up not just another stray, but a dead one. How did he even do that?

Bonus points if Jason is very much so resurrected already, but none of the bats told the justice league because apparently Gotham’s newest crime lord, who’s 6’ whatever & built like a brick shithouse, isn’t obviously the same malnourished little kid that used to say “Robin gives me magic!” & literally died. Who knew?
