Liber Sanctorum

Liber Sanctorum (Or Book Of Saints) is a Saints personal accounts of their lives, written as it happened by scribes unseen. This is the untold story of Saint Patrick from his death, canonisation, rebirth, rise and fall. Come along and you will see that religion left out the fun parts.

True love is when you’re in the middle of writing a long post and your boyfriend makes little whimpering noises and grabby hands, so you stop writing your post and go cuddle him.

How to make a character's death sadder

 Don’t have them die of old age after a long, fulfilling life. Many people don’t even think of this as sad (note that this can still work if you have enough of the other factors).

 Leave one of their major goals unfinished. The more enthusiastic they are about completing the goal, the sadder.

 Give them strong relationships with other characters.

 Make them fight against whatever is causing their death. Their ultimate loss is sadder if they struggle.

 Kill them in the middle of their character arc.

 Don’t describe their funeral in detail. Maybe it’s just me, but I find that long descriptions of funerals kill the sadness.

7. If possible, try to kill them off in the middle of the story, so we had time to like them and we will have time to let the loss settle in.

8. Also, place surviving characters in a situation where having the deceased person there would help them get out. You can choose whether you will point this fact out or if you want the audience to make the connection themselves.

9. Make them die by sacrificing themselves to save someone they love from a danger created by the antagonist.

[socialjusticeprincesses]

based on a few deaths that made me blub like a baby…

10. have their loved one, broken hearted, tell the team to stop fighting because “its over.” 

11. have their pet come looking for them. 

12. have their loved one perform a popular song at their funeral so it makes the fans cry whenever it’s played.

13. family witnessing the death and/or blaming themselves.

so… let’s add some frustration to your dear readers’ sadness, shall we?

14. kill the character in the middle of making a joke, smiling, or expressing/experiencing joy/happiness.

15. make the character’s death slow and painful, but make them unable to call out for help even though they can literally see the other characters nearby.

16. after killing the character, have others think the character had betrayed them so they’d always hate them and remember them as traitors and never say nice things about them… Give your readers no chance to have group-therapy with other characters by making them the only ones who know the truth.

17. right before their death, show a side of them nobody has seen. (someone who is always tough and brave being genuinely scared of dying alone; someone who is always laughing being in tears before dying, etc.)

18. make them the only person who knows a big important secret that would help other characters in the story.

19. have them being lied to before dying. (thinking they’ve been betrayed; thinking they weren’t loved; thinking they’ve lost their loved ones, etc)

20. make the character very enthusiastic/passionate about a certain goal, constantly put stress on their goal, have them die unexpectedly before they can reach their goal. 

and the best one…

21. have another beloved character kill them–better be a close friend to your character, one that absolutely nobody suspects, one that everyone can’t help but love, one who is always enthusiastic about things and encourages your character. THEN

reveal the truth only later when it’s too late and the a-hole character has already escaped.

have a cowardly character know the truth and never tell anyone else

have another character find out the truth and have them die before revealing it to others. 

have the said character ^ not actually die, but go through something so they’d forget the friend of the deceased character is actually an asshole. 

This way only your readers will know the truth, thus the frustration would be… most enjoyable for you.

Satan out.

22. Don’t kill their body.  Kill their mind.

Leave the physical shell walking and talking, but strip out everything that made that person who they were.  Make them forget all about their loved ones, themselves, their experiences and past, their skills, and have them have to start over completely from scratch.  Physical and mental disabilities bonus points.

And keep them in a place where their loved ones will be taunted every day by a living ghost.

[bobby-phantom-blog]

based off of the one character death that physically pains me to think about

23. Make the character a very loving and caring family person, whether it’s with their siblings or parents, their partner, or their children. Make them talk about how much their family means to them frequently. Kill them off before they could even say goodbye.

Bonus points if they have a very young child who means the world to them.

More bonus points if their family member kills them, or they believe their family member to have killed them.

Weathered Storm

You have a fear of storms, you watch the news every minute after a storm warning comes over it once. You have woken, shrieking in fear in the night as a thunderclap booms over head, but you do not realise your strength. You've stood with head held high against my storm and come out on top. You yelled over my thunderous doubt and drowned it from my mind, your tears turned to hail on my skin and cleaned the sin from me. Your arms held me, sheltered me from the freezing winds of fear and your beauty stood high above the clouds that never left, your smile was my sunlight and all I needed. You fear the storm but stood against mine, and for all you’ve rebuilt since, I will love you forever

Guess who got the new Charlie And The Grandmothers book today from Katy Towell?!!! So happy to have another of her books, she’s a brilliant writer

Stay Aware

I've seen a few things today that have really urked me beyond anything else. People think that with this new level of conscious acceptance of all types of people, that hatred and bigotism (it's a word now) are going to disappear but if anything, the opposite has happened. I hear stories of Pansexuals, Bisexuals and others being shunned by the gay community because they're not 'oppressed' like 'true' Gays and Lesbians are. I've seen my slim friends be put down and told that being skinny isn't natural or healthy and that they're subconsciously being what the world wants them to be. There are people I know who are happy with 'Traditional' gender roles and are looked at like they're horrible people for not being 'progressive'.

I'd like to say one thing to anyone that says these things; Fuck you. Plain and simple, fuck you, get out of my life right now. I will not degrade you, call you a piece of shit or the likes because you aren't worth it. You don't deserve my respect or anyone else's and you don't even deserve my insults. You will exist in your own bubble of self righteousness and always wonder why you trip at every step you take.

We have to remember that with this new acceptance comes new intolerance and new hatred, if we don't stop it now it will be the same thing as always but with different names. Next time you decide someone isn't 'truly' gay, remember you're no better than those who didn't see gays as 'true' humans. When you call someone unnatural for being skinny, think that maybe they can't help that or that they're happy. When you see someone happy with any part of their life, even if it doesn't make you happy, just shut up and let them be happy.

I cannot imagine myself without her; it seems to me that without her I should never have been anything. Each of my thoughts sprang into being in relation to her.

if a girl doesnt want hair on her vagina, arms or face shut the fuck up and sit the fuck down. if a girl doesnt mind having hair on her vagina, arms or face shut the fuck up and sit the fuck down. a girl can literally do whatever the fuck she wants and she doesnt need you complaining about something that has no affect on you

I long for you to live. I want you to have the nerve to live. I do not, repeat not, want you to be like me. I only want you to be the best of yourself, the very best. Using every inch of you and every drop of blood. Using it all intensely to be you.
