Hey! It’s been a while. Have a Qifrey!

Also as a small announcement: I changed my name! The old one started to feel boring to me personally.

you'll get the urge as an artist or a writer to say out loud the things you're worried about "the proportions are off" "kind of out of character" "i'm not good at summaries" "didn't get as much detail as i wanted" "i made a mistake and here's how" and that's the self-conscious part of your brain telling you "it's bad and if you don't tell them you know it's bad then they'll think you're stupid" but you've got to ignore that little voice and pretend you think it's good or else that little voice is going to ruin your life

Some of the best advice I have ever gotten was from a creative writing professor. She said never apologize for your work. Never critic it before someone else does.

Her reasoning was you are the creator. You made your work from nothing and can see all the flaws and seems and holes. But your audience may not see any of it. Maybe they will; maybe they won't. But if you TELL them about the holes and the mistakes and the problems....they will 100% see them. So don't tell them. Don't sabotage yourself just because you think you're not good enough.

this may be a hot take? but i feel like some of the fandom is being weirdly unforgiving of tartah. yes forcing the truth out of coco was wrong but is it not so obvious that a main theme of the arc was expecting truth from people you’re meant to trust? coco herself was demanding that truth from qifrey, would it not have been hypocritical to lie to tartah about it? like i said, it was wrong to force the truth from her, but he is also a child and this is something so important to his character he was willing to brand himself with that spell seemingly forever because of how sick the secretive witch society was making him

and i’ve also seen people express confusion on why he chose to leave with custas but?? he loves and cares about him and also understands him. he is also a disabled child in a world that was not made for him. even after custas himself hurt tartah he knew this all started because their society was rotten and it has hurt him so much he was willing to leave everyone he knew to be with someone who understood and didn’t have anyone else

death to the preponderance of nuclearized ‘family’ and gender essentialist bullshit in WHA fandom.
