I've got ideas

I'm just too young to accomplish them yet 🔴

to be honest, i only personally care about plotholes when they appear in writing i already have a bunch of other problems with. if i like something enough, i'll give it a pass/invent an explanation in my head. i can't find the exact quote, but roger ebert said something about this. to paraphrase: "the movie's problem wasn't [such and such inconsistency], its problem was that i was bored enough to be thinking about that."

the writer’s urge to ask your friends “do you wanna see a little somethin’ i’ve been working on?” when the little somethin’ you’ve been working on is 800 words and ends in the middle of a sentence

Actually that no punctuation plot hole ooc wattpad fanfic written by that 12 year old will ALWAYS be better than character ai. And I love that 12 year old btw

[alittlebitofloveliness]

I love every shitty fanfic ever written, I’ve written some of the most shitty fanfic ever written, and I love it BECAUSE it’s imperfect and human and made for love not for popularity or profit. Generative AI has no place in schoolwork or academia but even LESS in fan spaces. Because without the love, what’s the point?

[joasakura]

Write.

Write like shit.

But WRITE WITH LOVE.

[yaidaidai]

Also being a shitty writer is a near-universal experience because it’s where we all start. LLMs can’t improve because they don’t think. They don’t really write either. They just play with probability and put out something that’s not illegible but certainly isn’t good.

When people say "I'm sick of so much politics in Comics/Movies/Games"

[patron-saint-of-smart-asses-dea]

What you think they mean: I think fiction should be for fun only, with no deep meaning whatsoever. Fuck art.

What they actually mean: I want politics in comics, games and movies, but with nuance, good writing, clever points and interesting characters, not boring propaganda pieces where all heroes agree with the writer and all villains are strawmen of things the author dislikes.

Writing advice from my uni teachers:

If your dialog feels flat, rewrite the scene pretending the characters cannot at any cost say exactly what they mean. No one says “I’m mad” but they can say it in 100 other ways.

Wrote a chapter but you dislike it? Rewrite it again from memory. That way you’re only remembering the main parts and can fill in extra details. My teacher who was a playwright literally writes every single script twice because of this.

Don’t overuse metaphors, or they lose their potency. Limit yourself.

Before you write your novel, write a page of anything from your characters POV so you can get their voice right. Do this for every main character introduced.

[writerlyn]

This is legit good writing advice, especially the first bullet point! In playwriting class we did a bit where every bit of dialogue had to be an accusatory question and it was glorious.

THIS!

Reblogging this too for folks with anxiety like myself who feel bad when they say they’re too busy but they don’t have every second accounted for doing something so they feel almost like they’re lying. Self-care goes on your schedule too, lovelies.

Japanese child actress Mana Ashida (little Mako) was embarrassed that she couldn’t pronounce Guillermo Del Toro’s name so he gave her special permission to call him “Totoro-san” instead.
