When is Dan going to post again?

short yet chunky answer: i took a break from posting on youtube this year (and thus the prophecy of dan’s diss track entirely came true) as i’m at a point in my life where i want to grow as a person (and creatively) and the thing about youtube is that it never stops - as opposed to a musician’s album cycle or a tv show with seasons that has natural breaks that allow for the creator to be inspired, the culture (and algorithm) of youtube expects you to constantly create with no pause. more than that, i feel when you make a youtube video you are putting a version of yourself out there almost like a snapshot in time defining who you are. i felt i could only really develop if i took a pause to think about how i want to grow. now that we’ve finished our tour and put ‘interactive introverts’ out into the world - which is a piece of work i think is very important and i’m incredibly proud of, i intend to think about how i can be more like the person i want to be. (which is why ‘trying to live my truth’ was the last real video i uploaded!) but don’t worry, nothing’s changing that much and i have no plans of going anywhere anytime soon, thank you for caring!

Good evening. Thank you for all your help in finding the fanfiction I needed. After finishing “Bluebird,” I did a quick google search on Dan and Phil and found their YouTube channels. They make some pretty funny videos! I watched one where they played charades and I enjoyed it so much I showed my husband! He also thought it was funny. The stories you write about them are wonderful, and you should be proud! “Bluebird” was stunning. Thanks for your help. Best, Bill

listen i know one of y’all is just fucking with me but bill and his husband turning out to be phannies is truly the plot twist i deserve

I’m Bill and I teach eleventh grade AP English in South Dakota. One of my recent assignments was for my students to show me a piece of literature that had changed them forever. One of the girls in third period g-mailed me a link to your page and told me to ask you for “Bluebird.” It’s an E-book you can send to me. Thanks in advance. Best, Bill

i have no idea if this is real or not but here you go my good friend. please read the tags and tell your student we said hello.

Bluebird (ao3) - lvckyphan

Summary: An unlikely tale of odd affection and baffling fondness between a pair of outcasts in a ramshackle orphanage comes to be plagued by tragedy when they move away to the green idleness of Scotland. Six years scuttle by, and all that was promised to remain simple is replaced by the ugly misfortune of dirty secrets, traumatic yesterdays and Phil Lester’s forbidden feelings for Dan Howell.

Do you have any tips for someone attempting to get back into writing?

read a lot. read the good stuff and the not-so-good stuff. be gentle with yourself. some days you only write 100 words and that’s okay. some days you write no words at all and that’s still okay. write the stories you want to read. write first, edit later. just get all the words onto the page before you start worrying about what they look like. find a beta you trust. be open to their concrit. be gentle with yourself, have i mentioned that? remember that there is joy in creating.   

(and @phanficsanonymous is doing great work for phandom writers - check them out!)
