These were used for the Sailor Moon Official guides that were released in the US (I think only there but I could be wrong). I have everyone’s guides except Venus which makes me sad.
These were released in Japan first! The US versions came out a little later.
Dang I didn't know that! Thanks for telling me!!
Me writing fanfiction: Thank you for reading! I’ll post the next chapter soon!
Some of the best writing advice I ever got was if you’re stuck on a scene or a line, the problem is actually about 10 lines back and that’s saved me from writer’s block so many times.
I feel like I need an elaborate explanation
Often times, I find myself stuck on what a character should say next or what should happen in a scene to connect A to B or so on. When this happens, I fall into the trap of writing and rewriting the same few lines over and over, and becoming more and more dissatisfied every time until I give up.
But problem is almost never actually whatever line I’m trying to write at the moment; the issue is the stuff leading up to the line. Maybe there are structural issues with the set up, maybe I wrote a bit of dialogue that was out of character leading to a discussion that doesn’t make sense, maybe I’m missing a vital piece of exposition or expositing too much. It could be a lot of things, but the important part of the advice is to look back and be willing to consider changes to something earlier in the work (even if you’re really attached to like a piece of dialogue or a particular sentence or something) instead of trying to find a way to force out a scene that’s not working.
That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for explaining!
This is really helpful!
Woah! I never thought about that! Thanks!
I one hundred percent agree with this! Sometimes, when I have really bad writer’s block, I’ll take an hour break and then sit back down to read the entire work over again.
Whenever I start feeling irritated/confused, I put a notation by that section and keep reading. I mark where the rough patch starts and where it ends. Sometimes the parts after the rough patches are good, sometimes they’re not. Little rough patches are fine, but big ones will need to be addressed in the second edit!
When I get to the point where I’m in a rough patch that doesn’t end, I know I’ve found where I need to re-write. I go back to the start of that rough patch and copy everything from that point forward. I put the whole rough patch in a “graveyard” file (in case I need it later), then delete it from the main document.
Then I start writing again. It works 7/10 times!
when you’re trying to write and your last two functioning brain cells start yelling at each other
oh!! i hope life hasn’t been too hectic or harsh on u recently,, but it’s good to hear you’re alright!
OMG WHEN DID SOMEONE SEND THIS?? I’m not good at responding to messages since I’m mostly on my phone but I’m alive. And thank you!!! Life has been both but I’m getting through it :)
Hello, I’m Alive Update
Hello, still alive for the 3 people who follow me here lol. A few things:
I’m still focused on finishing my Markiplier reader-insert Leaps of Faith and my Saiyuki smut series (?) Let’s Talk About Sex. One story hasn’t updated because I’m still trying to figure out a great way to discuss sensitive topics and the other is cuz I’m not as into the fandom anymore (can you guess which goes with what lol). However, I am trying to get back into the habit of writing so I will update hopefully one of these by the end of the year.
With all the Tumblr drama going on right now, I don’t plan on jumping ship anytime soon on either account. However, if you’re not going to be reading anything on here anymore, there’s still my ao3 account to continue reading (which honestly has all my completed works. I need to update this blog more ugh)
Hmmm, that’s about it? Just an update that I am still here and still working on these fics. Maybe a full update on what’s been going on as to why I haven’t updated anything will come up soon. Stay tuned???

@deviantcrimes I'm being called out yo
Seven years after, I see you again 😚
Guys this completely changed my writing, heed it. I often do an entire draft just looking at sentence variation and oftentimes the results are absolutely transformative in the difference.
@aang-the-last-motherfucker @princessamericachavez
I’m pretty sure y'all write right?
me writing dialogue: “what is man but a vessel through which a higher entity may see? what is his purpose? must he find a purpose? we are but stardust; the universe comprehending itself.”
me writing action: they ran real fast from the bad men aand legs hurty
me writing action: Her legs pounded against the earth, the familiar jolt grounding her like nothing else could. Magic, gods, royalty—she didn’t know anything about that. But running? That’s something she’d been doing since day one.
me writing dialogue: “I dunno man whatchu wanna do” “I dunno. What do you think?” “Hey man I don’t know”
me writing action: room go boom
me writing dialogue: noppity nope, that ain’t dope
The holy trinity of writing
The most important writing lesson I ever learned was not in a screenwriting class, but a fiction class.
This was senior year of college. Most of us had already been accepted into grad school of some sort. We felt powerful, we felt talented, and most of all, we felt artistic.
It was the advanced fiction workshop, and we did an entire round of workshops with everyone’s best stories, their most advanced work, their most polished pieces. It was very technical and, most of all, very artistic.
IE: They were boring pieces of pretentious crap.
Now the teacher was either a genius OR was tired of our shit, and decided to give us a challenge. Flash fiction, he said. Write something as quickly as possible. Make it stupid. Make it not mean a thing, just be a quick little blast of words.
And, of course, we all got stupid. Little one and two pages of prose without the barriers that it must be good. Little flashes of characters, little bits of scenarios.
And they were electric. All of them. So interesting, so vivid, not held back by the need to write important things or artistic things.
One sticks in my mind even today. The guys original piece was a thinky, thoughtful piece relating the breaking up of threesomes to volcanoes and uncontrolled eruptions that was just annoying to read. But his flash fiction was this three page bit about a homeless man who stole a truck full of coca cola and had to bribe people to drink the soda so he could return the cans to recycling so he could afford one night with the prostitute he loved.
It was funny, it was heartfelt, and it was so, so, so well written.
And just that one little bit of advice, the write something short and stupid, changed a ton of people’s writing styles for the better.
It was amazing. So go. Go write something small. Go write something that’s not artistic. Go write something stupid. Go have fun.

I often wonder what happened to authors of unfinished fanfictions.
I hope they’re having a nice life
we absolutely are not and that unfinished fic haunts us to this day
