“You write the beginning and then you go back and rewrite the beginning, and you never got off page one. It’s kind of a syndrome, and I have a rash piece of advice which is — Go on, page two, page three, and never look back. Get something finished, no matter how lousy it is. […] Perfectionists cannot get going unless they kind of do violence to their own instincts, and just blast ahead.”

— Ursula K. Le Guin, The Last Interview and Other Conversations

making up oc lore: fuck yes a little guy just for me

writing down oc lore: what the fuck

[identityarchitect]

oh also

making up oc worldbuilding: this makes complete and utter sense and is really easy to understand! i cant wait to show my friends

showing your friend your worldbuilding: the flrimble is basically a type of zimzam but sort of different, its hard to explain

Hardest part of writing is accepting that some people will not fucking get it & you just have to like cope with that because over-explaining it just makes it worse

[tlirsgender]

I will not over-explain my art to the stupidest people on earth. I'm writing for people who know what I'm talking about. Mantra that will save you. David Lynch was right

Love a character who is neither trustworthy nor untrustworthy but another secret third thing.

[liarsblade]

Guy who can be relied upon to make the right choice 98% of the time but God that 2% is a fucking doozy.

Some nights I wake and everything hurts a little. It is amazing how long a ruined thing will burn.

Things you should not trust me about:

Estimated word counts

Deadlines

“This won’t take long”

Deadlines

Any assurance that includes the word ‘focus’

Anything that involves a fixed time on earth when I anticipate a project will be done

btw an underrated relationship dynamic is one that is deeply romantic but not sexual. they are partners they are best friends they are each other's everything they are each other's silly rabbits they are the only ones who will ever truly understand each other. no other partner will ever live up to them, could ever live up to them, but they don't fuck. maybe they want to, maybe they would in another life, in another time, but not in this one. maybe they never would. but their bond is so deep no one could come between them, no friends, no lovers. no grave can hold my body down i'll crawl right past my spouse to my queerplatonic bestie

[orpheuslament]

boy i sure do love a character who is playing a Character. a character who you have to basically forcefully cut open to get a glimpse of who they actually are. bonus points if they themselves have no fucking clue because theyve been pretending for so long theyve forgotten who they are when theyre not

[ains-art]

I'm but a fragment of your hatred

[kijimha]

just because you havent seen me post about The Character in a while doesn't mean i'm any less insane about them in private
