AND IM BACK!

Summary:

The second he saw Peter disappearing in his arms, Tony knew he was fucked. He knew he couldn't live without the kid who had become such a big part of his life. And it seemed like Peter knew that too. —OR— "…Sometimes it's like he’s here, you know?" Ton said, "I know it sounds insane, but sometimes I’ll be talking to myself and I can almost hear him answer. Sometimes… sometimes he does actually answer.” Pepper, God bless her heart, managed to keep a straight face. She nodded, as if she could understand, and took a minute to think. But Tony knew she’d never understand. He didn’t think anyone could understand. It was his own personal Hell and Heaven.

Fanfic Writer Friday (FFWF)

Alright fellow fanfic friends, it’s Friday, the best day of the week, and it’s about to get a lot more fun. Ya know why?

Reblog this post if you want people to send you asks about your writing process, wip/fics, or headcanons today! For each ask you get, send and ask back in return!

This is a weekly event, to be held every Friday (obviously) and is open to all fanfic writers in any fandom! Don’t be shy about sending asks to blogs you don’t know—this is a great way for writers to get to know different blogs and fics, and make new friends!

(in case you feel like you’ve seen something like this before, this is based of of writeblr’s Storyteller Saturday, aka STS!)

Good stuff.

Guys, I edit professionally. This list is legit. Incorporating these suggestions before you hire an editor will save you A LOT of money. Even if you did these and nothing else, you’d see significant overall improvement in your work.

That said, you don’t have to overthink these things when you’re writing a first draft. If you write, “she said angrily” in a first draft, you can always revisit the phrasing in a second draft. I mention this because overthinking style can lead to a loss of momentum, and losing momentum is why so many people never finish a draft. Give yourself permission to write fast, write messy or ugly, and edit your draft into beauty later.

Most of this list is second draft stuff. (Another editor here.) Your first draft is cake ingredients. Let them be messy. The two biggest problems I see in indie published books is people NOT knowing where their story begins and massive amounts of exposition aka info dumping especially since I read mostly SFF.

So my controversial opinion (that I didn’t have 6 to 8 months ago) is IF you are writing a first book and have NOT written/published before. It is extremely important to hire an experienced editor in the development stages to help you find/learn these things and not rely on “well established author does it.” Get that first draft out, hire a dev editor (not a line or copy editor) to help you with that second draft.

This can also be needed if you’re transitioning from fanfiction to original fiction. But it will honestly depend on the strength of the fandom writing in general. (I’d call it case by case.)

Once you gain experience and better instincts, you can scrap your dev editor. But you’re never going to stop having editors completely. (Seriously, don’t be Rowling folks. Or Meyer. Or Rice. Or maybe GRRM.)

Chapter Two is up!!

Philia: [Noun] (/ˈfɪliə/; Ancient Greek: φιλία), often translated "brotherly love", is one of the four ancient Greek words for love: philia, storge, agape and eros. In Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, philia is usually translated as "friendship" or affection.

—OR— Peter moves into a new apartment with Ned and MJ right before their second year of University. He’s mostly excited that he won’t have to sneak around as Spider-Man anymore, and that he doesn’t have to sneak out of his bedroom window every night. Or at least, he was excited, until Tony asked him if an old friend named “Harley” could move in with him.

Summary:

Peter Parker didn’t get sick, not any more. He hadn’t been really sick since before the bite, and that was what? Three years ago?

He was pretty sure it had something to do with his super healing, but he wasn’t completely sure. They never really had to test it out, after all. But he healed fast, so it generally made sense that his weird radioactive spider system also fought off any infections and illnesses.

— OR —

Peter gets sick, is a dramatic little shit, and Tony is just done with everything.

They had a black super soldier.

They had a black super soldier who gave everything for his country. He was jailed, experimented on and tortured for it. Captain America was glorified and hailed as the world's greatest hero for pretty much the same thing.

The bitterness in Isaiah's voice and Sam's anger and the cop scene right after.

That was a heavy, heavy scene and I'm glad they didn't sugarcoat it in any way. Because the reality of it is that, if you're not white, you're going to be held to a different standard. A different set of rules. And it always, always ends badly

Rhodey calling Sam “brother” is actually something that can be so personal to me.

Tony was my best friend, and he was a mess. He second-guessed everything he did. He was all over the place. The one thing that he did that didn’t second-guess was picking you. I don’t think Tony would have done what he did, if he didn’t know you were going to be here after he was gone.
