Writing Resources to use instead of AI

For coming up with character names:

Behind the name (my absolute fav)

Allows you to choose the origin of where you want the name to be from, whether you want a more feminine vs masculine vs androgenous name (as voted by users), random surname generator, and clicking on the name gives you important info like if there are any famous people with the same name, where it’s from, how common it is, and how people tend to see it, etc.

You can also search their name database by letter or meaning or origin, so if you know you want a character who has a name/surname that starts with an A from Ireland, there’s a whole list for you to choose from.

Census sites

Especially useful if you’re looking for a name from a specific place and/or time period. Just search “(country) census (year)” and you’ll find a database of real people who lived in that place at that time. No one can ever call your names unrealistic again.

For coming up with place names:

Fantasy name generator

This site can basically come up with any name for any person, place, or thing you might ever need. There are also specific generators for different fandoms if you’re looking to make an OC in an established world.

For finding that one word on the tip of your tongue:

One Look Thesaurus

This is my go-to. Not only can you find synonyms like a regular thesaurus, but you can also describe words like “unhappy smile” or “quiet laugh” to find the more specific word you’re looking for.

For coming up with ideas:

Word cloud

When I need to inspire a new idea, I write down all the things I’m interested in (hauntings, academia, lesbians, etc.) and put them into a word cloud to shuffle them next to each other. Sometimes seeing a concept in a new context can spark new ideas!

WWF Discord

This is my discord channel (shameless plug) for when you need to brainstorm off other people but don’t have anyone irl to talk to. We’re also happy to read and give feedback on writing, answer writing questions, or just chat!

For visualizing places and characters:

Pinterest

Pinterest can at times be a bit too sterile for my tastes, but if you use the right words, you can find more realistic photos of places. For example, adding “aesthetic” after basically any word will bring up a more broad collection of photos to help you flesh out places.

This is also a great way to find photos of people and fashion to help visualize characters. I’m bad at describing clothes, so I usually collect photos of outfits to help me know what my characters are wearing. Searching up “character inspiration” will collect more interesting photos and drawings of people who might not exactly be of our world.

(However, to make Pinterest not show you AI results, you have to go into your settings and check the “reduce AI” box. Luckily, it does mostly work.)

Death to Stock

Like pinterest but completely AI free (hooray!) Only drawback is that you have to pay a monthly subscription (about $20 CAD).

Cosmos

Very similar to pinterest but slightly more "artsy". I'm not super familiar with this one but I believe all the photos are human and you can save them and create collections with a free account.

Dupe Photos

Royalty-free stock image site with very Pinterest-core photos!

Minecraft

If you haven’t built your entire fictional city in Minecraft instead of writing, why not? It’s fun.

The Sims

This one is dual purpose because you can not only create your characters in Create a Sim, but you can design their houses. If you really want to go for it, you can bulldoze all the lots in your town and build your world from scratch.

For checking grammar:

Grammar Girl

Easy to follow definitions and examples, and if you learn better by listening, every article comes with a podcast to follow along with instead.

Grammar Monster

This one is my favourite for checking grammar rules because there’s tons of examples in graphics that helps for any situation.

Reedsy

Among other things, reedsy can connect you to professional editors within your budget.

For writing advice:

One Stop for Writers

This one was recommended from my discord channel and has all sorts of tutorials and resources for the writing craft.

My Blog Directory

Another shameless plug, but if you need writing advice on something specific, you can search through my directory to see if it’s there. If it isn’t, you can always send me an ask about it!

For an alternative to Google Docs:

Ellipsus

Think google docs but without AI. Yay!

(will update this list with any more suggestions or resources I discover 😊)

BIG BOY…... intimate time with clark takes a little getting used to

18+ mdni

🏷️ fem!reader, big dick clark kent(duh), [0.2k]

“Breathe baby……breathe”. It was a struggle for him to get the words out himself,they were getting caught in his throat all sticky like honey and came out a jagged plea as he pistoned himself in and out of you. You were trying,at the very least you could say you were trying but the little gasps of sticky air you were sucking in were doing nothing for you, your head was still as dizzy and your muscles still as tense as they were the second he began to push his impossible length into you.

“Hmmm just too b-big” you whined between gritted teeth,eyes clenched tight as you tried to breathe through the burning stretch and accommodate the 9 inches that your walls were clamping down around. You could feel every vein,every inch bullying itself into you,his mushroom head kissing the entrance of your cervix. You were seeing stars. “You asked for this” he reminded you as his hips stuttered and slowed down. “I-I can always stop”.The whine you let out was beyond pathetic as you imagined the sudden emptiness he’d leave you with. “Clarkkkk” you mewled,legs clamping even tighter around his waist and pulling him even deeper “don’t even think about it”

How to Describe Setting in Literature

Setting - when and where the action takes place.

Your story’s setting establishes the environment of the fictional world that will be planted in the reader’s mind as they read through your creative writing.

Fleshing out your setting isn’t just for fantasy worldbuilding—every story can benefit from a detailed environment.

Writing Tips: Describe Setting

There are endless combinations of descriptive words and specific details that can contribute to your descriptions of setting, creating a clear vision of where your story takes place:

Use sensory details. Use all five senses to describe the immediate surroundings to the reader to quickly immerse them in the environment of your story. The little details of how your marketplace smells, or what the wood of an old house feels like can make all the difference in your descriptive writing, and really set the stage for a vivid reader experience.

Show, don’t tell. Your setting descriptions should be more than just listed off for the reader. If you have an active or hostile environment, show how the setting changes or interacts with characters. If there’s a factory nearby, don’t just tell the reader that—describe what it smells like or how it changes the way the sky looks. You can also indicate the time of day or time of year it is in your story by including how the sunlight looks or discussing weather changes.

Use real-life locations. If you need inspiration, look at the setting around you. The old church down the road may not be what the religious center in your sci-fi novel looks like, but using real locations as a basis for the ones you create can help outline the setting you’re going for. Just like how character behavior drawn from real life examples can give a natural depth to the characters you’re writing, the same can be done for setting. You can also use pictures and videos from places you cannot visit to get a general idea of what your own location would be like.

Incorporate figurative language. Your descriptions can be literal, but sometimes you can create a stronger image in the reader’s mind when using metaphors or similes to compare it to something else visual. For instance, comparing the volcanic eruption in your novel to a fiery, vengeful dragon can create intense imagery that will have more of an impact on your readers’ imaginations.

Keep it simple. Focus on the details that really matter. The importance of setting in a book should not be overlooked, however, it is also important not to go overboard. A long list of what a place looks and feels like might feel thorough, but ten pages of scenery descriptions will be boring for the reader. Parse out the most interesting and vital details when describing the setting of your scene to give the reader a sense of balance, and not overload them with adjectives.

Dialogue for Multiple Characters

Having a conversation with a few friends at once can be fun, fast, and full of crosstalk and chit-chat.

For a fiction writer, writing dialogue between multiple characters in one scene should give the illusion of a real life conversation, but with less small talk and more conflict.

Once you learn how to write for multiple characters, you can craft great dialogue that creates a scene rich with tension, exposition, and character development.

Writing Dialogue for Multiple Characters

In a scene with several characters engaged in conversation, it’s important to make the conversation easy to follow. Learn how to shape a conversation between multiple characters with these dialogue tips and techniques:

Format your dialogue for clarity. When you write dialogue, format it so that it clearly stands out from the rest of the text. The most common way to do this is with quotation marks. When a character speaks, use double quotation marks. If they quote someone else, use single quotation marks for the quote within their dialogue. Know how to punctuate dialogue properly within double and single quotes. Begin a new paragraph of dialogue when you switch characters. Formatting helps dialogue stand out on the page and makes it easier for readers to interpret as speech.

Use dialogue tags sparingly. Writing “he said” and “she said” is a universal way to identify the speaker in literature. It’s particularly helpful when there are more than two characters in a scene. After that first line, make sure to mix dialogue tags with other ways of identifying the speaker. Have characters refer to one another by name.

Stage your characters. In visual mediums, like film, television, and theater, it’s easy to see who is speaking. In theater, actors are positioned in front of an audience and move so they are in plain view at all times. When you establish the setting of your scene, stage it—even if you’re writing a novel. Create a visual of where each character is in relation to the setting and in relation to one another. This makes it easier for the reader to track the conversation in their mind.

Write dialogue with action. In a scene with dialogue, give every character something to do that creates movement. This further establishes them physically in the scene for readers. It also continues the momentum of the plot. Movement can include body language and facial expressions. Actions differentiate multiple characters, and they can also reveal emotions through subtext. Giving each character a physical role helps set the scene and allows the reader to track who’s speaking during a tense exchange.

Create a unique voice for every character. Every character should have a unique voice that identifies them. Make characters’ voices unique through accents, word choice, or speech patterns. This helps readers recognize who’s speaking with just a single line. A character’s voice can reveal a lot about them, like age, culture, and where they’re from. A high school student talking to their best friend will use different lingo than a CEO running a business meeting.

Keep it real. When you write dialogue in fiction, make it believable. Listen to your own dialogue when you speak with other people. Take that and filter it. Eliminate the common mistakes people make when speaking. Real life dialogue often uses filler words like “um,” “like,” and “uh.” In creative writing, craft lines of dialogue without those unnecessary fluff words that slow the scene down. In a character's dialogue, don’t ramble, keep pleasantries to a minimum, and skip the small talk. Keep every piece of dialogue deliberate so that it supports the scene and the overall conflict.

Read dialogue out loud. The best way to know if your dialogue works is to read it out loud. Choose dialogue examples from your story. Read those lines of dialogue to yourself or someone else. Does your dialogue sound like real people conversing? Good dialogue should sound natural. Bad dialogue will sound clunky and awkward. As you read, listen to cues for who is speaking to see if you can follow the different voices and tell who’s who.

Avoid introducing new characters during a conversation. When you create a scene with multiple people in conversation with one another, only use characters readers are already familiar with. Introducing readers to new characters in a group setting can be confusing. They’ll spend time trying to figure out how this new character is relevant to the story rather than following what the characters are talking about.

Give characters opposing views. Every character in a scene should have goals that conflict with one another. It’s easier to follow characters when they have a unique point of view and they’re passionate about the views they’re expressing. Contrasting characters also build conflict. If there’s no sense of conflict or tension in a scene, make sure it serves a purpose in your story.
