You actually cannot skip to being good at a creative endeavour that you haven't put much practice into. You cannot trick your way out of the 'knows that your work is not what you want it to be but don't know how to improve it' stage by planning or reading or talking about it really really hard. At some point you just have to craft through it until your brain finds it's own unique way back to the 'everything I make slaps' stage and be prepared to start the cycle all over again. You just have to make that project you're excited about slightly less good than you want it to be. (Says this standing in a pool of blood and covered in blood and also coughing up a little blood)

everyone stop reblogging this I hate to be reminded of my own good advice

You can teleport! How does it look?

Puff of smoke

Leaving someone's sight and suddenly you are gone

Fading out of existence

PowerPoint animation

Transforming into a flock of crows

Portal

A trapdoor that isn't there when someone checks

Exploding into confetti

Popping out of existence with no fanfare

Shooting yourself out of a cannon

The Secret Option (tell me)

i don't even want to teleport

People don't like to admit it bcs cringe or w/e but Homestuck really did revolutionize the webcomic as a storytelling medium and I am endlessly frustrated that before webcomic artists could really stretch our legs fucking webtoonz swooped in, set a new, more restrictive standard, and then monetized and monopolized the ever living fuck out of the concept of The Webcomic until it drove away anyone who couldn't be a professional quality manga artist for free, and now the only webcomics that actually feel like spiritual successors to Homestuck are so obscure they're basically cult classics that you have to beg people to read.

Like it's just so wild to be in high school and see Homestuck be like "we're using like fifteen different artistic mediums to tell this story bcs we can" and be really fucking inspired by that, only to grow up and see basically every webcomic ever have to conform to One Single Standard or fucking perish.

Actually, I realized my real point here: we all need to make our art weirder. Please make weird art. I want more stuff like Prequel Adventure and 17776 and MyHouse.wad and I want it now. Capitalism thrives on conformity. We must be weird at all costs.

poor on the piss website. yes third world countries are suffering the effects of climate change far sooner and far worse that first world countries, and with far less capacity to mitigate it and responsibility for causing it. but france is not the point here. you get that right? this isn’t about france. this is just a very illustrative example of a global problem. which again will most impact the third world. yes the reason there was a convenient projection in france to make this image possible is because france has the resources, stolen from the third world, to do so. but again, it’s a global problem. it’s everywhere all at once. so if climate change is accelerating beyond predictions in france it is also accelerating beyond predictions in other places as well. but beside that you don’t have to choose between caring about people in the first world and the third world. don’t listen to the campists. you can care about all people all at once. there’s queer and bipoc people in france if that helps.

this and also the only difference between fanfic writers and writers who sell their own original works as careers is that fanfics aren’t monetized. that’s all.

being a “professional” writer doesn’t mean your works are inherently better than fanfics. I’ve read so many fics that are more professionally written than some published books.

whether or not a piece of writing is monetized has nothing to do with its quality.
