i know I don't get a lot of asks or engagement any more, but just in case, I'm taking an indefinite hiatus from this site to look for a job full time. I don't like the directions fandom is headed in any more, I generally can't stand about 80 percent of the people on here, and I'd rather just not waste my time on this site. Thank you
some of you seem to be under the unfortunate impression that i enjoy finishing things. i enjoy making things

Tips for Writing Injuries
✧ Broken ribs suck. You don’t just “walk it off.” Breathing hurts. Laughing hurts. Existing hurts. Characters with rib injuries won’t be doing heroic sprints.
✧ Concussions aren’t instant naps. Dazed vision, nausea, dizziness, maybe even personality changes, but they’re not going to collapse neatly like in the movies.
✧ Blood loss is sneaky. It’s not just about dramatic pools of blood. It’s dizziness, confusion, and the body getting cold as circulation tanks.
✧ Adrenaline lies. Someone can take a serious injury and not feel it until the fight’s over. That “I didn’t realize I was bleeding until later” trope? Very real.
✧ Twisted ankles are brutal. One bad step and suddenly running is off the table. Even walking hurts like hell. Perfect way to ground a chase scene.
✧ Burns linger. Even small burns hurt more than most people expect. Blisters, infection risk, constant pain, it’s not just a cool scar later.
✧ Dislocated shoulders = useless arm. Characters can’t keep swinging a sword or firing a gun. They’re basically fighting one-armed until it’s fixed.
✧ Shock is a thing. Pale skin, trembling, rapid heartbeat, and eventually disorientation. A character might not even realize how bad their wound is.
✧ Stitches aren’t magic. Getting sewn up is painful and recovery takes time. They’re not instantly battle-ready after a needle and thread.
✧ Scars tell stories. Some fade, some don’t. Some stay sensitive forever. Don’t forget the aftermath when the wound becomes part of the character.
in 2026, remember how GOOD writing feels. remember how satsfying it is to get your characters to the point you have been dying to get to, where they will experience the love, fear, relief or whatever the feeling you want to bring to life may be. let this year be the year of writing, prgress and of satisfactory endings.
Ooooh the horrors
some people really do need to start reminding themselves that the answer to "why didn't the character just do [something entirely different]" is often simply "because then there wouldn't be a story"
Genuinely think the most underrated skill in writing is knowing when a scene is done. not perfect. done. there's a version of every scene that keeps going because you're scared to leave it, scared it wasn't enough, scared the next scene is harder. so you keep adding. one more line. one more beat. one more little moment. and the scene dies from it. it needed to end three paragraphs ago and you just kept talking because you didn't want to face what came next. same as real life actually.

first incidence of good writing advice i've seen in 10+ years on this platform and it's in the notes of a mustelid wreaking absolute havoc in a german grocery store
Croissant but in a dress cuz why not coconut :b I wanted to draw Croissant in a magical girl fit but It flopped I had no reference 🥀
Kinda wish it was easier to make actual friends, I feel like more often than not I find my friends are the types to keep venting or rejecting my advice and concerns for them, hardly messaging me for fun or just to hang out, or they hardly message at all. I know this is pretty unfair and selfish but it's been years where I've just tried to make friends properly only to have it keep relapsing into me being the therapist/life advice giver, just for them to keep rejecting and ignoring my help even when I go out of my way to give it. It's one of the biggest reasons why I kinda gave up and took a huge break to just be with my husband, and when I came back to talk online more i was excited to make new friends but almost all of them ended up only messaging back, if at all, just to vent or talk mostly about themselves.
Idk why I'm writing this, it's not very considerate to talk behind people's backs I know, but I'm just tired of it.
Mother?
honestly no wonder shadow milk is so angry at the witches. Imagine you have the sweetest, gentlest mother but than all of a sudden she stops talking to you and when you lash out for the first time you get locked up and told your mom did that to you like ow
I already knew the reveal that salt did it would hit him hard but now? Oh its so much worse. Salt basically led him to believe his mom imprisoned him after abandoning him-
Stages of writing a novel: (1) this is a great idea (2) this is a good idea (3) this is an idea (4) what even is this (5) i have made a terrible mistake (6) okay there's something here (7) this is actually good (8) this is too good, something is wrong (9) wait did i accidentally write something real (10) close laptop. do not think about it for three days. open laptop. start over from stage 4.
that didn’t last long
me: i’ll keep this one light
also me: gives everyone trauma
