Just derping around, posting random stuff, writing fan fiction and junk. Feel free to look around, follow, chat, send asks, stare blankly at the screen or whatever.  You do you, dude. ^~^  Current project:  His Name Was Bob

tumblr is like a group therapy with no therapist.

Open up your manuscript.

Search for “there is” or “there was.”

Find all the description or action that starts with “there” and change it.

“There is a strike of lightning” becomes “lightning strikes the sky.”

“There is panic building in his chest” becomes “panic builds in his chest.”

Helps declump the writing

[alex51324]

Good idea, but don’t feel like you have to change every single time you used “there is” or “there was.”  There might be times when you’d have to twist the sentence into knots to get rid of it–or even times when “there is” or “there was” just, y’know, feels right.

Like when Robert Frost says, “Something there is that doesn’t love a wall/That sends the frozen ground-swell under it.”  It would be easy to write “there is” out of it–”something doesn’t love a wall”–but you’d lose the whole rhythm of the line.  It’s perfect the way it is, and hey, maybe your sentence is too!  Just think about it a little bit.

#i feel like a lot of posts like the OP come from a desire for there to be a formula for Good Writing#because that would make it a lot easier#unfortunately you have to consider the sound of each sentence; how it works with the sentences around it;#whether it conveys what you want it to convey#and a whole bunch of other stuff (via @elucubrare)

[thewritingumbrellas]

I want to say this:

This blog is literally meant to turn writing into as formulaic a process as possible. That’s the idea of it, because I think that way of thinking can help a lot of people who find writing too daunting to try.

But I’ve also said this before:

All writing advice is made to be ignore.

Writing advice is a buffet: you take what you want, you leave the rest for someone else.

You can pick and choose, you can change it to whatever you want it to be.

Writing in its purest form is taking formulas and ideas, and breaking them.

Heeeyyy have you ever thought of perhaps writing a sequel to "His name of Bob?" :,>>>

And maybe it could perhaps concentrate a lil more on Bitties and bitties' sympathizers fighting and ultimately gaining some rights? Perhaps??

Or maybe you know a fanfic like that?

Or any Bittyverse fanfic as good as yours (and poetax's BittyHorror, idk if you've heard of it)

🥺🥺👉👈👉👈

I do not plan on writing a sequel. And alas, I haven't been reading or writing much of anything lately. Sorry I'm of no help! 😅

[victoryroadburnout]

y'know sometimes fanfiction is just an increasingly convoluted series of setups to make characters sit around and talk about their feelings, and that's ok

At first I wanted to kill him. But now I’m glad I’ve spent the time to get to know him. Yeah, of course he looks delicious with his big red cheeks. But we’ve all got an agreement that we’re not going to eat Stu. Right? Right.

[zombeesknees]

#this is even funnier considering that Stu irl was not even an actor and in fact an actual IT specialist who thought he was  #going out for a job  #and somehow they convinced him to be a part of this movie

[shakypalms-deactivated20180313]

Oh man, that’s the cherry on top.

Stu Rutherford created a new stroby light technology that Waititi used in Thor: Ragnarok! That gorgeous bit in Valkyrie’s backstory? He and his friend Carlo van de Roer designed that lighting.

HE’S GIVEN US SO MUCH.

[lady-feral]

I’m glad they didn’t eat Stu.

even on tumblr i’m the quiet kid that sits in the corner and doesn’t really know anyone
