I've searched the world for all the right words and my mouth is full of nothing- tahereh mafi

other fanfic writer: *cranks out beautiful, heartbreaking, 4000-word chapters weekly*

me, writing: “should I remove this comma?”

me, twenty minutes later: *removes comma*

me, an hour later: *puts comma back*

I often wonder what happened to authors of unfinished fanfictions.

[everyoneinspaceisgay]

I hope they’re having a nice life

[ts-virgil-angst]

we absolutely are not and that unfinished fic haunts us to this day

What I find really odd about fanfic in general is that you can almost tell what kind of a person is writing it, you know?? Like some people are really poetic in their descriptions, some people almost drown in the feelings they write, others create dialogue that flows so well it feels like you’re watching real people discuss things in front of your eyes… I just really love that aspect of it, and I love placing writers in a kind of “hey look they’re a descriptions/feelings/dialogue kind of person” box so to speak. It’s such a pleasure reading it when it’s written so individually

Well now I’m curious what you guys think I am? Descriptions/feelings/dialogue writer?

Sometimes I look at my writing and think, wow, it really sucks. The description is repetitive and the dialogue is a mess.

But then I think, wow, it’s improved a lot since I started writing. The words flow more easily and I’m finding my own style.

And then I think, wow, I can’t wait to read what I’ll write in the future. That’s what I’ll hold on to, that thought right there.

“And if I asked you to stay?” “I’d need a very convincing reason, I suppose.” “Because I don’t want you to go.”

Write whatever the fuck you want. Literally whatever the hell you like. Write that cliche. Write that overdone trope. Write that asshole character. Play into a stereotype. It’s your goddamn creation. You can’t make anyone like it but they sure as hell can’t stop you.

Everyone who wants another little writing game, here you go!

[muppethole-deactivated20240312]

me writing dialogue: “what is man but a vessel through which a higher entity may see? what is his purpose? must he find a purpose? we are but stardust; the universe comprehending itself.”

me writing action: they ran real fast from the bad men aand legs hurty

[incandescent-creativity]

me writing action: Her legs pounded against the earth, the familiar jolt grounding her like nothing else could. Magic, gods, royalty—she didn’t know anything about that. But running? That’s something she’d been doing since day one.

me writing dialogue: “I dunno man whatchu wanna do” “I dunno. What do you think?” “Hey man I don’t know”

[bidootdoot-deactivated20190601]
