Introduction!

Hi everyone! Since I have recently started using tumblr as a means to share my writing and be a part of this community, I should probably introduce myself lol. My name is Sarah (as I think most of you know at this point) and I’ve been writing for fun for quite a while now. I’m in university as a music major but still enjoy art, writing, and reading. 

My Writing!

I am currently writing a fantasy series, but have written mysteries and sci-fi in the past. I’ve dabbled in poetry as well (granted, it is quite bad lol, but I enjoyed it). My current project is called The Fall and has proved to be a massive worldbuilding project. This project has been “in development” for about 4 years now and I am currently in the outlining process. I am hoping that being on here will help me stay determined with writing it! I still am planning to do a project intro as well so people can actually know what it is. It goes without saying, but I am super excited about this series!! I must admit, I am very anxious about sharing my work; I am terrified that I’ll get no interest or that this is how I’ll find out that this project is a bad idea. But yeehaw, I am attempting to ignore my anxiety and put myself out there!!! 

I am also working on some music projects (that I won’t really talk about on here) as well as a prequel to The Fall. I intend to focus mostly on this project because I truly want to see it through. But if you are curious about any of these as well, feel free to ask about them! I haven’t gotten a ton of writing done recently because of school, but I hope to have some scenes and chapters posted here throughout the summer!

 This is currently my only account of tumblr but I may create a blog entirely dedicated to writing. I reblog a lot of general writing stuff too so this is slowly turning into just a straight up writing blog (and I’m ok with that). That’s about it for me lol. Please send asks or tag me in things! I’m excited to meet more writers here as well!

"this is unbecoming of me" is genuinely a useful thing to have in your mental toolbox

the artemis ii mission reminds me why i love humanity so much. they play pink pony club for the astronauts. they have issues with microsoft outlook. one of the astronauts named a moon crater after his late wife. a jar of nutella just flew by. they make 67 memes because they’re big nerds with huge hearts who say that we look beautiful from there. they call dibs on sleeping arrangements and the mission specialist likes sleeping like a bat. the pilot’s daughter shows her dad off on her social media.

dunno just sometimes helps to think that we can do things like that.

tragedy protagonist categories:

yknow what yeah I think that's just about how anyone would react in this situation. fair enough.

alright this isn't how just Anyone would behave in this situation but I'm humble enough to admit that there have been times in my life when I was doing badly enough that I'd probably also fumble it like this

babygirl what the hell are you even doing

It’s fine because I’m actually using a secret technique called writing it in my head and nowhere else.

Yes, this. A stunning number of people will default to "because it's illegal." Teaching an intro-level bioethics course will demonstrate real fucking fast that a lot of the population just lets legality stand in for morality.

you gotta excise every ounce of reaction from you and use your head n brains

im awfully pretentious for someone who knows nothing and does nothing. solution is to become someone who knows everything and does everything. because i am not getting off this high horse. im velcroed to the saddle. im fused to the horse.

Anyone writing, well, anything:

Finish it. Publish it.

Whatever you're working on, someone's gonna love it. They'll stand up and defend it or hold it in their secret heart, a cherished forever favorite.

But only if you finish it.

I think the prevalence of bad writing advice in the world helped me grow my critical eye from an early age. the thing you have to understand about advice and criticism is that you shouldn't take them like a soldier takes orders. obedience is not a virtue. soldiers shouldn't do that either, nobody should be a soldier, but that's off topic. you have to evaluate whether they are good. you have to criticize the criticism.
