my favorite resources for writing

Hi there! I thought it would be nice to share a list of websites that I love for writing and planning my novels

↷

( world building )

fantasy map creator - I really like this map creator because it is VERY in depth, gives you pretty much any bit of information you would need for your story!

fantasy map creator no. 2 - this generator creates a slightly smaller map and gives you information, but not in as much detail as the previous.

medieval demographics creator - again, this gives you information for the wolrd you want to create, with no map, and just info on population and different settlements

star system generator - more for science fiction novels, this tool creates a star system consisting of different stars and optional terrestrial worlds.

science fiction world generator - this toll is similar to the fantasy world generator, and gives you interesting details on the physics of your planet, population etc.

traveler system generator - I’m not sure what the title of this means, but it creates a star system for you with an earth like planet and demographics for that planet

ultimate star system and world creator - this toll is my favorite. it gives you so much information and creates a whole star system for you with lots of interesting demographics

( name and plot generators )

fantasy name generator - this simply gives you a list of names for fantasy novels. personally, i prefer to research the meanings behind names but this can give you some inspiration.

ultimate fantasy generator - now this generator creates pretty much all you need to get ideas for your story!

fantasy calendar generator - this is super interesting tool that creates calendars for your novels that do not use earth time!

great name generator - i love this generator, it gives you names for japanese, chinese and russian characters, locations and corporations! i use it for a lot of my novels.

ultimate sci-fi generator - this is absolutely fantastic, it gives you characters, locations, plots etc. i love it!

more generators - this blog has some good tools for plot and character creations!

( help for writers )

plan your novel step by step and read blogposts - now novel is really great for planning a story and their blog is really helpful too!

-

Reblog this to help a writer with their story! I might add more to this some other time, but I hope these are helpful for now!

Introduction to Pirates: Pirate Ships

The exact design of ships changes by the time and place of their manufacturing, but they had common builds and terminology.

Directions on a ship are:

bow or prow (front)

starboard (right, as seen when standing on the ship facing prow)

port (left, as seen when standing on the ship facing prow)

aft or stern (rear)

amidship (in the middle of the ship)

windward (the direction the wind is blowing)

leeward (the opposite of windward, sheltered from the wind or downwind)

Important places on a ship are:

bilge (the lowest part of the ship, the part most likely to leak and be filthy)

crow's nest (a small platform near the top of the mast for lookouts)

fo'cs'le or forecastle (the section of the upper deck in front of the foremast)

helm (the steering wheel. contains the bittacle/bitacola/binnacle, a box which holds the compass)

hold (storage space in the lower part of the ship)

hull (the body of the ship)

keel (the underside of the ship)

mizzenmast (the largest mast. on a ship with three or more masts, the mast aft of a mainmast)

poop deck (the highest deck, usually above the captain's quarters)

main (the longest mast)

quarterdeck (the aft part of the upperdeck)

Depending on the size of the ship, it may have one or multiple decks and masts. The flagship of Blackbeard, the Queen Anne's Revenge, was an English-built frigate. It was a 200-ton, 103 foot long vessel with three masts (the fore, the mizzen, and the main). It allegedly had 40 cannons, though only 30 have since been found (far more than most of the ships it attacked) and as many of four anchors, which could weigh up to 3,100lb and take over an hour to raise.

Vessels such as pirate ships cannot accurately be called boats, this is a pet peeve of many nautical workers.

Spotify wrapped is normally released on a November 30 or December 1 but this year it was released on November 29, the International Day of Solidarity with Palestinian People- a day which it was asked for people to increase their social media posts about Palestine to help call for a permanent ceasefire. Instead it is now being overshadowed by people posting about Spotify wrapped…

[ibtisams-deactivated20240709]

In May of this year Spotify removed the song “My Blood is Palestinian” by Mohammed Assaf from its platform for “inciting against Israel”

Spotify’s CEO Daniel Ek said that Kanye West’s music would not be pulled from the platform despite his antisemitic remarks and other companies cutting ties with him

Daniel Ek also invested €100 million into an AI military defense company. Israel uses AI technology when bombing Gaza.

in light of recent news about spotify trying to overshadow Pro-Palestinian posts on social media by releasing wrapped early and it's CEO being a zionist piece of filth, it's very very easy to crack premium for desktop

All you need to do is download and run the file off this GitHub

it's literally that easy

Enjoy your free spotify without ads

Normalise throwing the phone across the room and running as far away from it as possible while screaming after texting a girl you like

[s0m4-r03]

love the idea of having a gf who comes up behind me just so she can wrap her arms around my waist to gently sway the both of us

i want to lean back into them and relax into their arms

maybe there’s music playing in the background or maybe we’re swaying in complete silence 

either way we are together and completely at peace <3

omg the weather is getting colder would be such a shame if a girl wanted to hold hands to keep them warm haha imagine that

You've strayed far from safety, following the whims of your curiosity. This cave is taken, and its occupant does not welcome the company of strangers. She heard you long before you spotted her; now she stands coiled to strike, should she dislike your next move.

Imagine forever drawing your old cringe edgelord OCs, couldn't be me dhfjsf

Throwback to the days when Steeltalon lived alone and her home was a literal hole in the ground; a cave system well away from the reach of Isla Sorna's larger predators. She was one of my first OCs, had her since I was a wee bean of eleven years old. Being a violent cave hermit was not the edgiest I wrote her as, nor the stupidest thing I ever wrote her doing. Ah, the good old days of RP forums.

Anyway long story short I saw one of these Goretober prompts was "hooks", and how could I NOT immediately think of raptor claws

Lighting and pose ref'd from this wonderfully scary video.

writing a callout post for our cat:

invading queer spaces (the dining room table)

refusing to listen to queer voices (us telling her to get off the dining room table)

harming queer bodies (puts her claws out when you pick her up)

I honestly feel like media needs to start portraying more lesbians and gay men who didn’t realize they were gay until much later in life. Lesbians and gay men who married the opposite sex and had a family. Lesbians and gay men with religious traumas that made it hard for them to understand they could have been gay. Lesbians and gay men who honestly struggle to make the connection that they are gay because of how ingrained societal standards are in them. I need for the media to start having characters that didn’t always know. Not everyone always knows and it would be beneficial to show that. There is no time limit on realizing your sexuality or gender.

Sorry I was born to be a hot lesbian trophy wife I literally don’t make the rules here

going insane over the prospect of casual intimacy. like taking a bath together and sitting in between their legs while they wash your hair, press soft kisses to your cheek, neck and shoulders. just leaning your head back into the crook of their neck and relaxing as they hold you and trace lines across your skin.
