I finally bought Iceborne on PC since the DLC is only $9.99 now. I had a character before, but now I have a new character because I wanted to start fresh on PC. This is Miranna!

here is a masterpost that i'll try to keep updated with all of my writing advice posts. if i missed one, please let me know!

How to create chemistry between characters so the reader feels the romance?

What makes a story feel lifeless?

Balancing character backstory: how much is too much, or too little?

How do you build up tension?

What are writing beats and how do I use them?

How do I keep character behavior consistent in longer fics?

How to finish a long project when you're not an outline person?

Using transitions instead of line breaks to move things forward when you don't want to write them

Some random little pieces of writing advice

What comes first: the story or the genre?

How do you plan what you write enough that you don't have to keep going back and changing things?

Fanfic writer habits I've had to unlearn when writing original novels for traditional publishing -- this post breached containment

How to get from point A to point B without skipping ahead but also without losing motivation?

What should characters do between plot points?

What does changing a book from adult to YA actually mean? What changes?

A longform analysis on thought strands, beat changes, and action beats/dialogue tags, aka: how to write so that it feels like a complete, acted scene.

wait do people read first person stories and think they're the ones in the story???

Saw people talking about not liking first person, which is fair, but their reasoning was like "I would not do that" and I don't understand that mindset.

First person stories are still about a character. A character making their own decisions. First person isn't about you???? At least I thought it wasn't. What am I missing? I've always seen first person as just a more in-depth look into a character's mind and stricter POV. Not as a reader stand-in.

Consumer vehicles shouldn't be required to be EVs with a ton of advanced safety features that crank up prices, actually. That is a terrible idea. Normalize renewable energy instead.

So, like, does anyone else have the urge to create a metal band within the first 2 months of learning guitar? Because that is me right now.

Earth has no idea why humans think global warming hurts her. In fact she is excited! Its been a while since the last extinction. She was already starting to get tired of mammals.

"Now about travelling. It seems like Necro won’t get that car yet anyway, so we’ll have to take the cheapest way of travelling, which is by plane to Sweden and by train back home. The plane costs 350 kr. each person (400 if the fucking automat doesn’t work) and the train back home costs kr. 280 each person. I hope it’s not too expensive. In addition there will be another kr. 100 each guy to get to and from the airport and station! We are fucking broke, else we might have afforded to pay some ourselves, we don’t even have food here, sorry! As for travelling inside Sweden, I don’t know if you have any good idea... how are the other bands going to travel? And it would be fucking great if someone could meet us with a car at the airport, we”ll of course give you exact info on when we”ll be there.

I’ll make some promotion for the gigs, so hopefully there will be some people from Finland coming in Norrköping and some from Norway in Göteborg, but I don’t know for sure. Maybe around 20 people from Norway on the last one.

What more? Yeah, stage show! If we had a car, we could bring some pig heads and stuff ourselves, but that’s not possible in a plane...” - Euronymous in a letter to Morgan Hakansson of Marduk, attempting to organise a Swedish gig which never eventuated 🕯️

If I think about it for more than five minutes I do find the "secret species" urban fantasy model to be very funny. What if nobody believed that rabies was real and people who encountered it were sworn to secrecy. What if the existence of the blue whale was a government secret. I swear to god sheriff, it was a wolf that ate my cattle. Don't be ridiculous Frank, it was probably your neighbor with a gun.
