embrace your true self and all that shit

"winging a 50k project is the kind of dumbass energy I strive for" -- aka leapangstily's writing blog (I follow as montosmadman)

[millenari]

do you ever re-read your own wips like 'damn the bitch that wrote this oughta finish it'

[astralpenguin]

self care is writing a fic that you’re literally the sole target audience for

[sasarahsunshine]

But like, imagine if I actually wrote the fics I think about constantly. How wild would that be?

[thetaoofbetty]

very sexy indeed

[redporkpadthai]

The reason none of my wips get finished

You know those posts about finding a great fic in a fictional fandom X and then clicking the author's name and finding out the rest of their 100+ stories are for an RPF fandom Y?

I'm gonna be That Author once my NaNo fic is finished and published.

woke up this morning to a comment on a fic saying they hoped I didn’t mind them commenting on such an old fic, and the fic isn’t even a year old, so I’m going to reiterate: I can’t speak for every single fanfic writer in the world, but I don’t know a single one myself who wouldn’t be thrilled to get comments on years-old fanfic! there is no deadline! it honestly made my day

[montocalypse]

me: I'm so busy with work I have no energy to do anything non-essential 😵

also me: oh nano is starting next week time to pick up a new fanfic project instead of working on the old ones

(someone please stop me)

[montocalypse]

Remember the time when I could finish TWO 30-day writing challenges in a single month and work a full-time job on top of that? I was reminded of it today and it was WILD.

Me, thinking about my otps: THEY DESERVE TO BE TOGETHER. THEY SHOWED ENOUGH OBVIOUS SIGNS OF THEIR FEELINGS FOR EACH OTHER THEREFORE IT'S TIME FOR THE CONFESSION!

Me, thinking about my otps as a writer: awww they're so sweet together. Too bad something painful is going to happen them the next day:>

[she-who-reads-fanfiction]

Hands up if you were the child that read thousands of books and as an adult you hit burn out and now only read stories about the same 2 idiots falling in love over and over as you don't have the brain power to get emotionally attached to new characters.

What’s writing, you know? What does writing actually mean?

Grounded

Pairing: Romagnoli/Montolivo

Rating: G

Summary:

Not many of the players remember what it was like, when the head coach’s position was so precarious that every match could be their last, or when they would first hear of possible ownership change from media and not the club. When the dream of winning the scudetto was just a dream.

Riccardo remembers, and so does Alessio.

I didn’t mean to write this. Then my ADHD decided that it’s either this or no sleep for the whole night. I chose the former. Happy Scudetto!!

This is kinda related to If I go now, I’d look for another you, because of course it is. Can be read as standalone though, since the other one isn’t even finished yet. Yes, this is me calling myself out on my shit.

I wrote this for me, but maybe @santonali, @capitanogiorgio or @diegoalvesisgod would also appreciate it, idek?

You know how you write something and then the thing that is insta stories keeps giving?

tag your results!

Why do people stop commenting on fics if they’re more than a week or two old? Please comment on old fics. Tell me you like my one shot from 2014. Tell me you like my old multi-chap I finished in 2016 that I spent a year writing. I will be fucking thrilled.

[thefeistydragon]

Fics are not social media posts. There’s no “stalking” someone’s “old posts”. They’re meant to be found and enjoyed years down the line. No need to be nervous.
