[northern-borealis]

Whoops yet another updated pinned post

Man idk even know at this point

Call me Arden or Sky, early 20s, they/them or quoi/quoir - I don't mind being referred to as a woman/girl but if you she/her me I'll slap you

System - don't have any specific tags for us but like. It's fine just don't be a dick.

Mostly post here, I have a few sideblogs that I'll tag below. Main interests are Stardew Valley, FFXIV (my main is an Elezen Viper) Dragon Age and Mass Effect (if you ask me about my canons for those I'll never shut up about them), X-Men (I'm so normal about my/my friends' OCs ask me about them please please please-), and DC (don't ask me how my Arrowverse rewatch is going. I'll cry)

Sideblogs:

Writing Sideblog: @northern-write. No I don't remember the last time I posted here no I don't know if that will ever change. It's fine we're all good here

Critical Role Sideblog: @daggersfalchions-andcunning. I didn't finish C3, I might eventually but no promises, I'm super far behind on C4

Star Wars Sideblog: @only-hereforthe-clones. Mostly reblogs.

Personal posts are tagged "written in the sky", I tag my queue with "not if it's queue". If you see posts with "coworker shay saga" they're about my favorite coworker who puts up with so much bullshit - we love Shay, everyone send your strength to Shay

I might make this look nicer at some point but man idek

Writing is about building a connection between writer and reader. And that's something AI will never be able to do. I recently read one of my earliest fan works that's published. It's indulgent and sweet but clumsy and overwrought. It chases the same romantic high I felt the first time I'd played the game that inspired it. I wrote it for myself, because I'd always written for myself. In twenty years of writing as an adult, I'd never before had a reader. And while it's clear from the writing that I hadn't once considered the reader, people noticed it. Fan fiction had changed something. And so my writing began to grow. I wasn't only writing for myself anymore. I had people who were curious about what I had to say. And what did I have to say anyway? What could I say? How could I connect with the person at the other end of my story intentionally? It completely transformed the way I wrote. For the better. Forever. For those out there trading their own perfectly imperfect human voice for that of a machine, I would encourage you to search for connection through your own words, your own point of view, your own ideas. Find out what you have to say and find a way to say it that tickles you. Let them connect with you, not some corporation's idea of what the median romantasy reader wants. What is fan fiction for if not for reaching through those words right into the heart of another person and giving it a good squeeze? And in return, they'll know the shape of your hand, the feel of it. Write that AU. Write that fix it. Write that rare pair. Write that missing take. Write it badly. Write it excellently. Write it yourself.

Think of the handprints you could leave.

Assign an aspect of nature to prev

Waves at the beach

Rushing breeze through leaves

A crack of thunder

Flow of a river

The shine of a gem

Dancing embers of a flame

Torrential rain

Slow falling snow

An emerald sea of grass

Austere cliffside

A maze of roots

The endless oceans

@ fic authors what do you personally consider a successful fic? What’s the bar?

[sherl-grey]

actually writing the fic down

Sick list of symptoms bro. Now try humanizing your behavior instead of pathologizing it.

[sandersstudies]

Pathologizing: Hey sorry I yelled at you. I have this ADHD symptom called RSD that makes me really sensitive.

Humanizing: Hey, I’m sorry that I blew up like that earlier. In the moment I felt really attacked and overwhelmed and I reacted badly, but I know you didn’t mean to offend me with what you said, so that behavior is on me.

[queer-asinfuckyou]

Because I just saw a post bitching about this one, I want to add: this post is saying that you need to take accountability for the way you hurt other people, even if it happens because of a symptom of your disability/illness. It's also saying that using terms (especially acronyms) that aren't common knowledge isn't a helpful way to explain yourself. It is NOT saying that you need to let people walk all over you because "your disability isn't an excuse."

If you're diabetic, you don't have to eat the honey glazed ham that will send you into a coma (their example). But you also can't yell at the person offering it and accuse them of trying to kill you. You can just say "thanks, but my body can't handle that kind of sugar intake, so I'll pass"

[succubusboyfriend]

you have permission to pick that 2 year old "abandoned" project back up. it's not mad at you for setting it aside. and maybe time and distance have helped ease or erase the things that made you put it down in the first place.
