woman character: you don't get it... I am a monster.

guy character: why do you say that? what... what have you done?

me, desperately: please say you killed or tortured someone. say you did morally questionable things. say you drank all the milk but put the carton back in the fridge so your roomate would buy more. anything. just, please, don't say it's because you can't-

woman character, tearfully: I... I can't have children!

Michaela Coel, who has been cast as a currently unknown character (though people speculate that she will be playing Storm. People also think she could be playing Madame Slay!) in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is Aromantic! I've never known a Celebrity to be Aromantic and I thought that was pretty cool when I learned that so I thought that some Aromantic people would like to know!

I've been waiting for the X-Men to join the MCU so I really hope she is playing Storm!

If you are a younger sibling who is taller than your older sibling you automatically are a bad person sorry I don’t make the rules.

I'll never get over how fucking ridiculous the post-hunger games dystopian YA trend was. Every book was "society is sorted into *rolls dice* 5 groups based on *picks card* astrology signs. It is illegal to *throws dart at wall* sing. The main character is special because she *spins wheel* knows how to read. Two boys are in love with her."

i used to have to see a mandatory therapist for school and for a good 6 weeks i had him convinced i had a toddler and that i was a teen mother, honestly the most alive ive ever felt. i did however get kicked out of the free therapy programm once i got made bc it was 'disrespectful' to fake having a baby

n. six weeks..

[dct239394cvvd098dffgggp]

the fact that yhey kicked you out of therapy after all that instead of like. doubling it.

[headspace-hotel]

The whole idea of getting kicked out of therapy is sending me

Sending me where? I don’t know.

Writing advice from my uni teachers:

If your dialog feels flat, rewrite the scene pretending the characters cannot at any cost say exactly what they mean. No one says “I’m mad” but they can say it in 100 other ways.

Wrote a chapter but you dislike it? Rewrite it again from memory. That way you’re only remembering the main parts and can fill in extra details. My teacher who was a playwright literally writes every single script twice because of this.

Don’t overuse metaphors, or they lose their potency. Limit yourself.

Before you write your novel, write a page of anything from your characters POV so you can get their voice right. Do this for every main character introduced.
