YES FINALLY

I love Gordon.
Sheās blind and he was making all the points about the pie in a way she could respond to: sound. He is an amazing man
Not to mention Christine won Master Chef that year.
I reblog Gordon Ramsey every time he appears
TheĀ Notarosa From Titan Home Builders
This is some stuff Iāve gathered over the years from various masterposts and poking around on the internet that help me with my creative writing. I hope you find something to help you, these have really gotten me far! (Note: Everything is free!)
Organization
Plotist
I can not stress how amazing this website is. You can keep track of your characters, events, plot lines, and settings. Itās great if your story has a lot of different characters and places you need to keep track of. You can create timelines in which you place in your characters and have a visual representation of where they are and the events happening while theyāre there. Thereās a lot of information about it on the site if you want specificities.
Pacemaker
This lets you set a goal for how many words/chapters/lines/etc. you want to write in whatever frame of time you choose. There are many options for how you can divide your time, and what your quota is for each day. It also gives you visual representations of your goals and progress. This is super helpful is youāre a procrastinator like me.
Names
Magic Baby Names
This site is awesome. You enter in a name, and it gives you a list of names similar to it. This is great for when you want a specific type of name (ex. specific to a time period, specific to a race) or when you have a certain feel for a name you want, but donāt have an actual name in mind.
List of Girls Names
Has a bunch of names for girls, both common and unique.
List of Boys Names
Has a bunch of names for boys, both common and unique.
Most Popular Surnames in the US
Having a practically unheard of surname can sounds awkward, unless it has some sort of relevance to your story. Keep it mainstream and believable by picking from this list. If you scroll to the bottom there are also options for popular surnames in America by race, which can be quite helpful.
Last Name Generator
If youāre not one to sit and scroll through lists, then try out a surname generator. You can also enter a first name and see how the name and the generated surname look next to each other. This can also generate a lot of other types of names, like for locations or boats or teams or first names or whatever.
Angel Name Generator
This generates believable sounding angel names.
Fantasy Name Generator
This site has a lot of different options for mythological creatures, and you can also choose what length youād like.
Inspiration
Having some visuals can be quite helpful if you need inspiration. Just play around with search terms and youāll find some cool, inspiring stuff. You can also create an account and pin pictures that inspire you to look at later. If you want, you can have different collections of pictures if you want to organize your pinned pictures with different labels. As an example, hereās mine (which you could also use for inspiration).
TumblrĀ BlogsĀ (Ā 1 2 3 4 5 6Ā )
(Warning: Some of the links are nsfw and/or potentially triggering) These are a couple of blogs that have some cool pictures that are good for inspiration. Also, I recommend creating a blog that you use to reblog things that inspire you for whatever your writing. I have one for a novel Iām writing and looking at it always gets me inspired.
Music
Noisli
I love this site. You can turn on sounds like river, fire, storm, railroad and others. You can combine them to create different environment sounds, and choose the individual volume of each one. Another thing this site does, is it has a space for writing. Itās very simple, just an empty space, but the background slowly changes color as you write. Itās not distracting like it sounds, itās actually very relaxing, and the change is nice so youāre not staring at the same-looking screen for hours.
myNoise
This site is good if you want to hear the background noise to your story. It has themed generators for specific sounds like a battlefield or a spaceship, but also other types of sounds. Itās great for getting into the mood or the scene.
Night City Sounds
This is great if your story is set in the city, or even a town. It sounds extremely real and is very relaxing.
Star Trek Bridge Ambience
You donāt have to be a Star Trek fan to find this useful. Itās really good for any type of future-y setting, especially a spaceship or work setting.
8tracks ( 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10Ā 11 12 13 14 15 )
8tracks is my go-to site for writing music. You can search by mood, genre, fandom/character (good for fanfics), or anything else that comes to mind. There are also tags like āwriting inspirationā andĀ ācharacter inspirationā that have great stuff. You search multiple tags at once, to get the exact feel you want. You can also make collections of playlists, which is helpful to organize by things like āfight scenesā or āinsane characters.ā Iāve linked playlists that are great for writing inspiration above, each with a different theme. Also, hereās a helpful masterpost that has a collection of 8tracks playlists for writing that are categorized by scene type.
Video Game Music
Video game music is designed to get you hyped and concentrated, which is great for writing! Itās also quite fun to listen to, so if youāre looking to write an exciting but light-hearted scene, this is good to get you in the mood.
Future/sci-fi music
This is actually just a link to one of Daft Punkās ablums. It was the soundtrack to Tron: Legacy, so itās super intense and future-y sounding. You can listen to the album anywhere, really. They also have songs that arenāt on that album that are good for future writing.
Information
Other Masterposts ( 1 2 3 4 )
These are some masterposts I use a bunch that have lots of great writing resources. Theyāre mostly resources for writing characters, but the first one touches on a couple different topics.
List of Character Flaws
If you feel like youāre character is a little too perfect, hereās a bunch of flaws you can give them. However, know that this list was originally created for RPG characters, and anything that would give the character a disadvantage would be considered aĀ āflaw,ā so thatās why a few of the suggestions are a little odd. Itās a great list otherwise, and extremely helpful.
Color Symbolism
This is a site that explains what all the colors stand for and mean, and what theyāre associated with.Ā Throwing color symbolism in your story can be really cool and an easy thing to do to make your story a little deeper.
Survive Nature
Realistically depict your character being stranded or going on an adventure in a challenging terrain. There are guides for being stuck on a island, in the jungle, in the forest, in the ocean/open water, in the desert, and in the snow/extreme cold.
Woods For Campfires
Sorry Iām reblogging stuff. I need this for book research :D
But what about vampire history teachers. Vampires who read something from a text book then proceed to light the book on fire and throw it out the window because āNo. thatās not even close to what really happened. Listen up nerds Iām about to teach you what really happened in France during the revolutionā
I need this as a series
Vampires sharing the recipe for Greek fire.
Vampires speaking in dead languages.
Vampires being able to translate untranslatable scripts.
Vampires who react to straightwashing historical figures like āAre you kidding me everyone knew that man was queer!ā
Vampires from cultures who were once antagonistic towards each other stubbornly maintaining a friendship thatās lasted longer than their civilizations.
Vampires who honour forgotten deities you wonāt find in mythology books.
Also, vampires who secretly saved stuff from the Library of Alexandra.
A vampire show that does not revolve all around sex and eternal cursed love.
nerd vampire whose knowledge of current events is terrible but they can always remember everything thatās consideredĀ āhistoryā so they have a super-detailed knowledge of everything up to about thirty years ago and then ?????
vampire who couldnāt tell you what caravaggio was known for but duelled with him at leastĀ three times and slept with him at least ten.Ā ācara-who OH YOU MEAN MICHAEL yeah he was coolā
vampire who spent 100 years in a convent and is still so bitterĀ that in all that time they never made her mother superior āGODDAMMIT I HAD SENIORITY! I HAD SENIORITY!āĀ āokay so first off janet, that was six hundred years ago, but more importantly, maybe if you didnāt always start those complaints off with blasphemyā¦ā
vampire professor who just sort of showed up at oxford when it was founded and is still there (and nobodyās noticed because he still never actually shows up to his lectures)
vampire politician who lifts all their campaign speeches wholesale from speeches given 200 years ago and just waits for someone to catch them out (nobody ever does theyāre prime minister and their approval ratings are through the roof)
WAIT I HAVE MORE
queer vampire who constantly talks about the fashion for straightness and you need to be really careful because if you tell them straight is default they WILL scream at you for five days straight about what a modern concept heterosexuality is
vampire hoarder who has an entire town where they just kept having to buy new houses to keep their stuff in and some of itās probably worth tens of millions by now but youāll never find it in among the 1950s kitschy kitten sculptures and boxes of newspaper (the newspaper is a wonderful mix of yesterdayās guardian and daily courantsĀ from 1725)
vampire sailor from mandervilleās time who just has so many storiesĀ and some of them might even be true
vampire bluestocking girl who took to the internet like a fish to water and spends her whole unlife engaging reddit antifeminists about womenās rights because thatās one fight sheās determined to see through. also with the advent of cheap dyes she literally wears blue socks every day and hopes one day someone gets the joke
vampire doctor who just gets SO CONFUSED about the literature because do you know how hard it is to keep up with medicine kevin? when i got my doctorate we thought leeches were good and then they were bad and now theyāre good again? i was published in issue one of the lancet kevin that is 387Ā lancetsĀ kevin how the hell am i meant to remember which oneās current kevin why are they saying cannabis is good for pain like this is news???Ā (but also lives in a state of wonderment every day in hospital because wowĀ look at all this stuff we can do now look at it kevin!)
entire coven of vampires constantly quibbling over manners because theyāre all from different periods:Ā āHATS OFF AT TABLEāĀ āSCREW YOU LEONARD ONLY PEASANTS EAT BAREHEADEDāĀ āTABITHA THAT HASNāT BEEN GOOD MANNERS SINCE THE 1500S NOBODY HAS LICE ANY MOREāĀ āIT ISNāT ABOUT LICE LEONARD ITāS ABOUT GOOD MANNERSĀ YOU NEED TO HAVE GOOD MANNERSĀ WHEN YOU HAVE PEOPLE OVER FOR DINNERāĀ āI SWEAR TO GOD TABITHA IF YOU MAKE THAT PUN ONE MORE TIME I WILL SHOVE YOUR STUPID HAT DOWN YOUR THROATā

I want this in my life.
THERE MUST BE A PARAGRAPH BREAK EVERY TIME A NEW CHARACTER SPEAKS
THIS IS NOT OPTIONAL
NO ONE WANTS TO READ ONE BIG BLOCK OF TEXT JESUS CHRIST
REMEMBER TIP TOP OK:
Make a paragraph every time that any of these things change!
TiĀ me
PĀ lace
ToĀ pic
PĀ erson
reblogging again because this is IMPORTANT
THIS IS SO IMPORTANT, PEOPLE! REBLOG TO SAVE A WRITERāS LIFE!
There is nothing that will make me backspace on a fic faster than a lack of paragraph breaks
Also if a quote is getting really long break it into another paragraph but donāt add the end quotation until the end of the quote
Reblogging for the content and the Hiccup gif. Wtf are up with his long caterpillar eyebrows?
Why isnāt using sign language more common in society? like??? Not even just communicating within deaf communities but for everybody to use with anybody?
I feel like this should be standard learning material for those working in loud workplaces or with machinery, or maybe idk for talking underwater or when someone else canāt hear you at a concert. Or what about when somebody is having a panic attack and canāt talk, or just isnāt all that comfortable with voicing their feelings?
Why isnāt nonverbal communication more integrated into our society? Cause it should be.
I wish schools would teach this as an optional language, or even an extra language or club ;-;
Have you ever been to earth?
On earth, we use the word āburritoā to describe a tortilla filled with things you eat. Pretty simple stuff, and Iām surprised you at least got that part right. My burrito was, in fact, filled with food. In this, you and I agree and are friends. But this is also where my lifelong hatred begins for you and anyone else whose brain has been repeatedly scrubbed with the same mixture of bleach and Pop Rocks as yours has. Because that should have killed you, but left you around long enough to do what you did to me today. Let me explain:
Youāre an idiot.
Let me further explain:
Burritos are eaten from one end to the other. So that means when you assemble a burrito with motherfucking ZONES of ingredients going that direction, you create a disgusting experience for the burritoās end user. When you make a burrito, you should put the ingredients in layerslengthwise.Ā That way, every bite has AT LEAST A FUCKING CHANCE of getting at least two types of ingredients, and there is little chance of becoming almost hopelessly trapped in a goddamned cilantro cavern.
Have you ever eaten one of the things you make all fucking day? You should try one. They are pretty good WHEN YOU ARE NOT WILLING YOURSELF THROUGH THE FUCKING EMPIRE OF SOUR CREAM ONLY TO END UP IN LETTUCE COUNTRY.
When you eat a burrito, you donāt stand it up and bite down on it lengthwise like a fucking Rancor. Humans canāt usually dislocate their jaws, and Iām not a fucking pelican. But you must think thatās how itās done, since that would be THE ONLY FUCKING WAY to take a bite of your crapstrosity and have it taste like a burrito.
And guess what else, player? You probably canāt guessĀ anything, because Iām pretty sure youāre just a mop with a hat on it that fell over and spilled some shit into a tortilla, but just in case, hereās what:
Humans also donāt eat burritos like fucking corn on the cob. Like a fucking typewriter from one end to the other a little at a time and then DING next line. But today I wish I had tried that. Because at least THEN I would be able to eat some rice, then beans, then be all like HEY BEANS IāLL BE RIGHT BACK JUST GOING OVER HERE TO THE GUACAMOLE FOR A SECOND.
Nope.
My experience was more like HEY BEANS ITāS JUST GOING TO BE YOU AND I FOR A MINUTE UNTIL I CAN FUCKING EXCAVATE THE RICE FROM BENEATH YOU BUT BY THEN YOU WILL BE A FADING MEMORY OH HEY I WAS WRONG IāM IN THE FUCKING CHEESEOSPHERE NOW RICE MUST BE NEXT I HOPE ITāS NOT ANOTHER FUCKING SALSA POCKET.
You built this thing like a fucking pack of LifeSavers.
And donāt even fucking think Iām about to open this shit up and re-engineer your nonsense 90 degrees. I ALREADY PUT A HOLE IN IT WITH MY FUCKING MOUTH. YEAH. THATāS HOW I DISCOVERED YOU FUCKING SUCK AT LOOKING AT THINGS. I AM NOT GOING TO DO FUCKING TORTILLA ORIGAMI TO GET THIS SHIT BACK TOGETHER, ONLY TO END UP WITH A BURRITO THATāS BEEN SHOT IN THE GUT AND IS BLEEDING YOUR INEPTITUDE.
Whatās that? I should ask you to mix it up first next time? IS THIS JAMBA JUICE? I DONāT WANT TO DRINK MY FUCKING BURRITO THROUGH A BENDY STRAW, AND I DONāT WANT A PILE OF BURRITO SOUP IN A FLOUR CAN.
I just want a burrito.
In conclusion:
Youāre the worst thing that has ever happened to the universe, you owe everyone everywhere an apology for this burritobomination, and I hope your babies look like monkeys.
UPDATE FOR EVERYONE WHO SAID āJUST EAT IT WITH A FORKā:
A fuckingĀ fork?
I DIDNāT ORDER THE FUCKING COBBURRITO SALAD.
If anyone ever handed me a burrito with a fork, THEY WOULD BE WEARING A BRAND NEW BURRITO HAT FROM MY FALL COLLECTION TEN SECONDS LATER.
Thatās like buying a car and having them hand you a fucking wrench with the keys. Like YEAH WE KNOW THIS MOTHERFUCKERāS GOING TO EXPLODE AND BE SPREAD ACROSS EIGHT LANES AS SOON AS YOU HIT THE GAS, BUT SHIT, WE GAVE YOU A WRENCH, SO BE COOL.
Jesus already gave me two burrito forks. One at the end of each arm. Theyāre called fucking HANDS.
A fork. My god. I havenāt cried since I was six, but Iām fucking sobbing now.
People eat burritos with forks?
God is sorry he made us.

Why Krita is Awesome: A Collection of Reasons Why This Program is Worth Taking a Look At
Krita is a painting program that has been around for a while, and in the last few years, underwent major changes and improvements.Ā Because of these improvements, many artists are using it not just because it is free, but because it offers amazing features.Ā These are by no means all of the great things Krita has to offer, but simply some of my favorite features of the program.
1. The Brush Engines.
Yes, engines.Ā As in plural.Ā There are many.Ā And they all do different things.Ā There is no way you could possibly capture all of its possibilities with one screen shot, but here are just some of the possibilities. Along side standard round, square, and shape, and textured brushes, there are brushes that smear, blend, and create interesting abstract strokes.Ā There are brushes for filters, and one of my favorites, the Experiment Brush, which is basically a pre-filled lasso tool.Ā
Brushes also support weighted smoothing, or brush stabilizers.
This is incredibly useful for line art.Ā And while I do not usually use this feature, it is something that I feel many programs are lacking, such as Photoshop.
But its brushes arenāt the only thing about Krita with variety.
2. Color Selector Customization.Ā
Whether you prefer something basic, or something more complicated, Krita will likely have what youre looking for.Ā You are not likely to find yourself missing your other programās color wheels.Ā There are even more options than this, and other color selectors.
Gotta love that customization.
Krita also has some great naviation tools.
3. On the fly rotation, zoom, and brush sizing.
With krita, zooming, rotating, and brush size scaling are all smooth, and dynamic with the use of hot keys.Ā These are features I miss when in other programs.Ā To zoom, Ctrl+Middle mouse button, hover over the screen to zoom in and out.Ā The same with shift rotates (press the ā5ā key to reset rotation).Ā Holding down shift and draging your brush on the canvas dynamically changes its size, allowing you to see the change, and get the exact size you want without brackets. Brackets also work, if thatās what you are used to.Ā Krita also has highly customizable hot keys.
4. The Pop Up Pallet
The pop up pallet is a set of your 10 favorite brushes (which you can edit), and a built in color wheel that appears when you right click on the canvas.Ā It is incredibly useful for switching between those few brushes that you use in almost every picture.
5.Ā Real time, seamless tiles creation.
Pressing the W key in Krita will infinitely tile your canvas, and allow you to work real time on simple to complex tiled images.Ā You can zoom in and out to see how your tiles work form a distance, and paint freely to create seamless artwork easily, without having to check using filters and manually tiling. Very usefull for patterns, backgrounds, and games.
6. The Symmetry Tool
This one goes without saying, Krita supports both horizontal and vertical symmetry, along with a brush that is capable of radial symmtry with as many directions as you like.
Go nuts, kid.
There are many more reasons why this program is awesome.Ā And it is only going to get more awesome.Ā And the coolest thing about it, is that it is 100% free.Ā So go check it out!Ā Thereās nothing to lose. Krita isnāt for everyone, it can be hard to get the hang of, and it is not meant for photo editing, it is a program completely focused on digital painting from start to finish.Ā
Give it a go and see if Krita is the program for you.
@deebott @pantheon-for-a-muse you draw and all so I thought of you guys š
Iām getting it today
@nerdyfanboy53 recommended this program to me but I had no idea if could do all this
Oh ma lord this could help me so much with my portfolio ;-;
