Prompts for writing eyes like that

☆ Her eyes blazed gold, like sunlight trapped inside crystal.

☆ His irises glowed like honey under flame, thick and sweet yet untouchable.

☆ He had eyes like a lion in sunlight, fierce, regal, and endlessly watchful.

☆ His eyes weren’t brown, weren’t yellow, they were the color of a flame at its hottest core.

☆ Her irises caught the light and turned it into fire, burning brighter than they should.

☆ Her gaze was so golden it felt like looking into a star, dangerous in its beauty.

☆ His eyes burned amber, the way coals glow long after the fire dies.

Don't Write What You Know, Write Genuinely

                One of the most common pieces of writing advice other than “show don’t tell” is “write what you know”. It’s said so much that I think it’s lost a lot of meaning, and people tend to only focus on the literal meaning of ‘write about things that you know about’, which would completely erase fantasy, sci-fi, or just about any slightly fantastical fiction.

                So rather, you should think of it as ‘write genuinely’. Connect with yourself to connect with your readers, create emotional ties to your work, write with empathy, write what you know.

                There’s three things we can do to help connect us with concepts/places/experiences we don’t know, that’ll allow you to basically write whatever you want. Here’s what I do:             

Research

Anything you can learn about what you’re writing about can come in handy. I tend to avoid scholarly articles or Wikipedia when researching because I find having a list of facts doesn’t help as much as having a library of experiences. If I’m writing about California but have never been there, I could learn that rain is pretty uncommon and temperature averages however much during the summer, or I could read about someone talking about their childhood summers in heavy heat and icecream that melts faster than they can eat it.

                Essentially, unless you’re writing something with the intention of educating others—don’t worry as much about the facts, look for more about the feelings. Blogs, vlogs, personal journal entries, and other pieces of fiction is where it’s at.

2. Substitution

This is a method I learned in directing (created by Lee Strasberg) that’s a little controversial when using it with actors, but since we’re using it for ourselves it’s fine. Essentially, if actors are attempting a scene about a situation they’ve never been in before (I’ll use the example of moving out for the first time) the director will ask them to recall a situation with similar emotion even if the situation was different.

                So in our example, if you haven’t moved out yet but are writing a scene where your character is leaving home for the first time, you might be able to emotionally connect to that scene through recalling the emotions you went through the first time you went to sleep-over camp. Or the time your parents left you alone for the weekend for the first time. Anything with the similar emotions you imagine the situation would bring up (fear, anxiety, but a sense of freedom, excitement, unsureness).

                The reason why this is a bit of a controversial technique in directing is because asking actors to recall or share painful memories to get into a scene can be very upsetting or uncomfortable for them, so if you’re a director, be cautious with this!

3. Experiencing

Of course, this all comes back to what we talked about a couple weeks ago. Experiencing to know more. The more you know, the better you can write genuinely about it—so go out and gather some unique experiences!

                Good luck!

What's fascinating reading this is how it makes perfect sense and clearly fits the true meaning of the phrase - while directly contradicting what so many people think it means. The very first recommendation on here is argued with so often, it's frightening. I swear, I have often felt like people think that whatever knowledge you have when you first hear the phrase "write what you know" becomes your fixed point, and anything you learn after that doesn't count. And researching specifically in order to write? I have literally heard people say that if you need to do research in order to write something, then you shouldn't be writing it, because you should write what you know.

So glad to see advice like this that presents research as, not only a valid way to acquire knowledge, but an absolutely necessary part of writing.

(Personally, I'm looking forward to days spent at the library, learning all about life in Regency England. It's going to be so much fun.)

Dialogue Punctuation Cheat Sheet

hey friends, i've found myself talking about dialogue grammar a lot as i do more and more beta'ing, so figured it'd be helpful to share more broadly :)

1. Dialogue + Tag (same sentence):

"I missed you," he said. "I missed you," Will said.

Use a comma inside the quotation marks.

Don't capitalize the dialogue tag unless it starts with a name.

2. Dialogue + Action (separate sentence):

"I missed you." He stepped closer.

Use a period inside the quotation marks.

The action isn't a dialogue tag, so it stands as its own sentence.

3. Dialogue Split in Two (same sentence continues):

"I think," he murmured, "that you should stay." "I think that," he murmured, "Will should stay."

Use a comma before closing the quotation mark and after the tag.

Don't capitalize the second part unless it's a name or proper noun.

4. Dialogue Split in Two (separate sentences):

"You're here," he said. "I wasn't sure you'd come."

Use a period after the tag, because the next quote is a new sentence.

Capitalize the new sentence of dialogue.

5. Tag + complete sentence of dialogue:

He released a breath before answering, "Always."

Use a comma after the tag.

Capitalize the complete sentence of dialogue.

6. Questions & Exclamations:

"Are you serious?" he asked. "Don't touch me!" he snapped.

Keep the ? or ! inside the quotes.

Follow with a lowercase tag unless it starts with a name.

hope this is helpful for somebody out there!!

Roleplay Tips: "Actionable Responses"

We have all experienced, or will at some point in the future, a thread that feels like it is going nowhere. It's that feeling of reluctance to pull up the draft, of realizing it's the third or so time of experiencing dread when you see that other person respond.

You're bored with the thread. That, or you want to continue and just can't seem to think of what to do next!

There are a number of reasons why this can happen, but one of the most common ones is a lack of an actionable response from your partner. In most cases, deciding to wrap up the thread is the best thing to suggest...but most of us are just too "polite" to do that, huh? 😉But that's a post for another time.

So, what is an actionable response? Simply put, it's a reply to a thread that manages to give direction to your partner. This has NOTHING to do with matching length of post! It's just a matter of being aware that this is a collaborative effort.

Here's an example:

Character A: "I think we should invite our friends out to a party." Character B: "That's a great idea!" Character A: "It'll be a formal party. I'm going to work on the invitations tonight. I'll really go all out and make it fancy!" Character B: "Oh, I can't wait to see what you come up with! I'll be sure to wear the red dress I got over the weekend." Character A: "I'm sure it looks stunning on you. I don't know what I'm going to wear yet. I think I need to figure out the venue and the details first." Character B: "You are going to knock it out of the park! You're always so good at organizing everything!"

So, what happened? The conversation above isn't bad! However, there was "burden" placed on the writer of Character A each time. The writer of B has responded each time in similar length, but gives A little to no idea how to continue the conversation. Each reply made it the responsibility of the writer of A to come up with the direction for the conversation. Here's the breakdown:

A: Starts with the opening prompt (the party)

B: Agrees with idea

A: Elaborates on prompt

B: Enthuses about prompt, brings up new subject (dress)

A: Compliments B, brings up new subject (uncertainty)

B: Reassures A

Sometimes your character requires noncommittal responses, and this is OK to do once in awhile! But think about this in real life: If you met someone who was only this reactive to your comments and never really asked about you or your actions... Wouldn't it get a bit exhausting to talk with them? At the very least, they would appear polite but uninterested, and interactions would tend to be short.

Here's a better example for the above, one with actionable responses from B.

Character A: "I think we should invite our friends out to a party." Character B: "That's a great idea! Which friends, though? The ones from work or school?" Character A: "Why not both? I think it'd be cool to combine our social groups. Unless you think they wouldn't get along…?" Character B: "Well, you know how wild I get around Stacy on the dance floor. I wouldn't want it to reflect bad on my performance review …" Character A: "That's true, you two can get pretty unhinged. But I was thinking of theming it up to be more of a formal party. Like, make fancy invitations and everything!" Character B: "Oh, that sounds amazing! And less likely I'll start twerking, although the possibility isn't zero. Do you need any help with the invitations? Or anything else?" Character A: "I should have the invitations under control, but I'd love it if you could brainstorm the decorations. I want to go for a vintage 1950's vibe." Character B: "I am already making a Pinterest. This is going to be great! Oh, and I just bought the cutest red dress that'll work perfectly for the theme! Do you know what you want to wear? We can go window shopping later if you want!" Character A: "That would be great! Do you have pics of the dress?"

The above interaction isn't just more equal in engagement, its flow and dialogue is far more natural and prompts more detailed responses! Here's the breakdown for this one:

A: Starts with the opening prompt (the party)

B: Responds asking for more details, prompting a new subject (guest list)

A: Answers, asks for B's opinion

B: Answers, brings up a third party that A can comment on

A: Makes a comment, but chooses not to pursue subject at length; brings up new point of discussion (formal party)

B: Gives opinion, offers help

A: Accepts help, provides further prompt details (party theme)

B: Gives opinion, offers up another subject of clothing, offers up potential next direction/goal of thread (shopping)

There is a lot more "work" involved on both sides in the above example. And this is just with dialogue alone -- using descriptors and physical actions (i.e B could pull up their phone and show A the photos of their dress, or A could have started to playfully mock imitate B's dancing) also gives the other character something to respond to. This works great for Muses who canonically don't say much or are generally quiet in certain scenarios!

The ultimate goal of writing Actionable Responses is to share the responsibility of the scene, so that one writer doesn't feel burdened with directing everything and eventually associate your threads with fatigue, even subconsciously. Communication also plays a big part, too! Your responses may be actionable, but if the other writer isn't picking up any of them, it's time to pause the thread and communicate ooc and see what's up!

"Oh no! I realized I don't write a lot of Actionable Responses! Does that mean I'm a bad writer/horrible person? Do all my partners secretly hate me? Is this why I don't get any responses?"

NO. Realizing the above only means you're learning something new right now, and it is up to you if you want to employ the above suggestions or not. This thread is not meant to shame people -- it is meant to educate, and maybe even put into words what other writers feel, so that they can share and point to it when they feel responsibility is unbalanced in a thread.

this is more to the anon asking about discord servers / bots, so sorry for using you as the vessel and i hope this is okay! i run or help run several servers and some other bots I *personally* enjoy are: sheep: allows users to change their name color fluffy: app bot that allows you to have roles auto-assigned upon acceptance gamebot: good for either ic or ooc fun, has games like Cards Against Humanity that are played directly in discord. thread tracker: hard to explain, but once users set it up then can then add threads to track / can separate by categories you name yourself / can show the list of all tracked threads or show a specific category / can also show just the threads you owe a reply to. statbot: allows you to track how active channels are / see what users are the most or least active / see activity stats for specific members or channels. you can black list channels you don't want to include in the tracking OR white list the channels you do want included welcomer: useful for sending a welcome message (mine include links to channels i'd like new potential members to see) as well as sending a goodbye message (mine is sent to a mod channel so it doesn't clog the welcome area) stickybot: useful for having messages "sticky" to a channel (ie when a new message is posted in a channel, the stickied message will automatically repost to the bottom. i believe you can have up to 4 or 5? stickied messages in a server on the free version) hoshi: allows you to make multiple starboards in the server / use whatever emoji you want as your "star" easy threads: automatically creates a thread in a specified channel when a new post is made (very useful for instagram-type channels) remoji: allows you to upload emojis you have access to, or copy emojis you have only seen your friends use in other servers, to your own servers emoji list

omg thank u for chiming in!!! sharing for anon & tags <3

Hi Dev! Hope your day has been going well! I have thinking about putting together a giant fc directory/account that was dedicated to listing all possible faceclaims, as well as linking them directly to different gif packs out there. And I was wondering if you'd be alright if I listed/shared your gifs on it??

Basically it'd be like a directory of all the faceclaims. And then clicking on the faceclaim would redirect them to another page, where I've compiled all the gif hunts/icons already so people don't need to hunt for them since we know how bad the tags can be.

I'd be directly linking them to your posts where you posted the gifs to ensure you get proper credit, as well as reminding people to follow all gifmakers rules, and to like & reblog the gif posts if they use them.

The amount of work that takes is immense and just all the props to you for it. Totally go ahead and link my gifs. and just honestly hope you get so much nice things said to you for such an undertaking.
