#fuCK. it’s me

maybe the secret is to just write everything in bullet point format, no matter how rambling, and then go back and edit all the bullets out. it makes for pretty sparse, choppy scene writing, but like — that’s what second-passes are for right??

#burnaftawriting #writer stuff.

me: i can’t wait to do jaytim spooktober!

also me: /is so out of practice completing fics in a timely fashion that i keep getting behind on my prompts.

so, anyone care if i just bullet-point this story out instead turning it into a proper fic like an actual writer?? is that a viable entry?? joke’s on me, i started writing the fic already, but my scenes drag forever and i’ll never finish it by tomorrow. bullet point fics are fun, right? is that still a thing we do on tumblr, lol?? i guess i can always expand the fic properly later.

thoughts / opinions?

#burnaftawriting #jaytimspooktober

once upon a time, i wrote an enemies to lovers @ the strip club undercover au, and tell me why i’m thinking of recycling that idea for jaytim purposes right now.

head full, many thoughts.

when you’re in a really tiny fandom/ship a really rare pairing and have already read the entire ao3 tag multiple times so you have to start looking for fics on other websites with lower standards of quality:

#okay but relatable.#but also i have never been that desperate in my life.#bc fuck wattpad.#that’s like regressing to read fics on quizilla.#what am i a 12 year old?#puhlease.#the true measure of fic desperation is —#when you’ve burned through all the top kudo’d fics #and all the aus #and all the longer chaptered stuff #and even the unfinished chaptered stuff #and you finally bottom out #the real test of your desperation: will you just write it yourself.#that’s how you know.#and subsequently that’s how this blog happened.

JayTim Spooktober!

Hey, JayTimmers! With Halloween right around the corner, we figure it’s prime time to celebrate our boys in a fun and seasonal way! To that end, we’re pleased to announce JayTim Spooktober, a month (kinda) of spooky-themed JayTimness.

Now, this will be done a little differently than your typical shipweeks—for one, it’s a month-long event, for another, it’s only happening on weekends. There are five weekends in October this year, and each one will have a different theme/prompt (see below). You’re invited to share anything you create that’s both JayTim and vaguely corresponds to the respective theme each weekend, tagging it with #jaytimspooktober so that it can be found and shared! This means fic, art, headcanons, comics, rec lists, etc.—have at! We just ask that you tag for NSFW/triggering content as needed (NSFW art should be posted on a site other than tumblr and linked to), and have fun!

JayTim Spooktober

October 3–4: Vampires

October 10–11: Zombies/Cryptids

October 17–18: Weres

October 24–25: Ghosts

October 31: Anything Supernatural Goes

We realize that many people like to create things ahead of time for ship events and that we haven’t given y'all much leeway to do that what with it already be September, but time is an illusion anyway. Feel free to post late using the #jaytimspooktober tag and we will try our darndest to make sure your contribution is seen.
