#20 What would your character do if they where told “you can’t come.”

You stare blankly at him. "what do you mean I can't come."

The man has his arms crossed over his chest. "You are not allowed here. that is final"

I know you all have amazing creative juices in you and some amazing characters. This prompt is just for you to have fun and to help you explore your Character in a different setting. I would LOVE to hear what your Characters would do.

question for my fellow fanfic writers:

have you ever used your fanfics in your writing portfolio or shared them with a “professional?” why or why not?? if so, how did you go about it?

for context: i’m interviewing for a writer position at some magazine which got me thinking about my work and how i never dared to used my fanfics as a source of writing experience or expertise as i thought they were somehow unprofessional despite them being some of my best fiction work.

This is the 11th day of 

waiting. 

seated in the same spot 

grindling my hands 

to type

and 

what gets out is 

ddddhhhhdhdjdhdhddhkjsdhjdsh. 

Whatever part of the 

brain that platitudinized me to write 

is dead now. 

It made me fall in love, 

and now—kaput—it's gone.

Uuuuh what a devoid day ! 

I am dissolving 

into a desolate form.

Will I manage to finish my alpha x secondo wip before Christmas ? We shall see.

I wanna post something on Ao3 so bad but I always chicken out, I'm tired of it but I still don't have the guts to post anything. COUNTLESS fic ideas (complete ones!) from different fandoms already passed through my mind but I always end up thinking "I still need to learn more about canon" or "what if it doesn't make any sense" or "what if people think I'm weird for this idea" and on and on. I know it's dumb to think like that, cause there's fics for literally everything, but I can't help but want people to at least feel something remotely like "wow that's what I needed" when reading something I wrote. I know it sounds greedy but I can't help but feel like that. I wanna post so bad but my fear is bigger. And it's been like this for almost 4 years now. I already wrote a 30k+ word oneshot, showed it to my friend and that was it, never posted. I've posted a translation, but it's obviously not the same. I don't know how to get over this.

Me being insane aside, i fucking love paying mind to character's way of speaking because i feel you can say so much about their personalities with the kind of words they most commonly use. Absolutely fascinating stuff, i wished i knew how to explain/ramble on this properly.

You know things are weird when you are writing a ship and is struggling for it not to be toxic

[sapitties]

KEEKSNDJWNS ILL GET TO FINISHING THAT FIC OFF I PROMISE protective dream my beloved

#11 What would your character do if they were deserted on an island?

hot sand coated your face and salt crusted your eyes. Water washed up your legs. Groaning you get up. You cover one side of your face from the sunlight and look around. Where the heck are you?

I know you all have amazing creative juices in you and some amazing characters. This prompt is just for you to have fun and to help you explore your Character in a different setting. I would LOVE to hear what your Characters would do.

I know this is the wrong way to see and value my work but is kinda of discouraging to not receive any comments at all on one of my latest chapters after I hit my head against the wall just to finish. Like, this mentality is wrong and for a lot of reasons, I know, I should be writing for myself and nobody else, but the lack of engagement from my readers really gives me the impression nobody cares for my story enough to even leave a comment of either encouragement for me to keep going or of their reaction of the chapter's events.

All of this makes me second-guess the quality of my work and feels like a slap on the back of my head telling me I ruined everything at some point and should just start all over again with a new story.

Birthday 🎂 Commission Sell!

Hi! My name is Belladonna and I’m taking commissions for writing. My birthday is in a few weeks, but my family is forced into a tight budget because I���ve been in and out of the hospital all year long

It would be nice to buy myself something for my birthday, given it doesn’t look like I’ll be able to afford much in general for a while. Gotta love the American health system sucking you dry of any money you got heh

My birthday is January 17th, and I hope to sell some more writings before then, so I can buy myself something nice. It’ll be my 22nd!

So obviously this isn’t any like Emergency funds, so don’t panic. Just a glimpse into the life of someone who has disability’s. So don’t feel like you HAVE to give me money. There are people on this site that need it way more than me

There are people here needing to flee abusive homes, their own medical bills, etc. I’m just here wanting to afford a birthday present for myself. I’m LOW on the totem poll

So take this as just a friendly reminder! My link is HERE to my commission page.

And if you wish to just donate, because YOU CAN AFFORD IT, my cash app is $BellaDonnaBucks

Don’t feel forced. This is just one person who isn’t in dire need of this. Just shooting my shot. Alright? Other people need it way more than me. People who don’t have money for food or even water. Focus on them. Not me. Got it?

Have a Merry Christmas/Happy Yule Tide/Winter Holiday/End Of The Year Tidings! And all the birthdays in between!
