Reblog the writers’ fortune cookie for luck!
Guys I reblogged this and then wrote an 8000 word story I didn’t even have a solid plan for. Reblog this shit.
i need fucking motivation-
okay, but no joke, i now am writing like 5 oneshots after reblogging this yesterday-wtf-
i need it to work rn >:0
really need this to work so i can finish that draft thats been sitting there for weeks-
OH MY GOD IT WORKED ASHJASUHJASHAJ
I reblogged this and a few hours later I’m getting so many ideas (probably because I was listening to two feet again) and i really hope they become real!
I need this again
Fuck i still haven’t even wrote most of the chapter that I’m supposed to post tomorrow please work fortune cookie🥴🥲✌️
Reblogged this once and it worked, so Imma do it again 🤞🏻🤞🏻
Hehe why not?
lots of spells,
moony
I searched for this because it’s been so long since I’ve been motivated and able to write “good” and it just sucks and I miss it and I’m genuinely really upset so please I’m trying everything, let this work!!
so i can continue a fanfic... maybe... because i want to get it done.
THE MISCONCEPTION ABOUT COMMENTING ON FIC
I’ve read all kinds of posts both from writers and readers lamenting about comments on fic. Authors are upset when they don’t get any, readers don’t know what kinds of comments to leave, etc. And it finally clicked in my brain why I think a lot of people don’t bother writing comments.
And this is what it boils down to:
Writers do not want praise. We just want to talk about our story.
I can’t speak for everyone obviously - but I think the majority of writers don’t care so much for the “omg you’re a brilliant writer!!” comments as much as we just want to hear your thoughts on the story. Even if it’s just your thoughts as you’re reading of “oooh x happened! I can’t believe y said this! What’s going to happen now that z has happened?!” We literally just want to talk about what we’ve written like you would with a friend about a tv show. We’re not out here demanding praise like some entitled narcissist.
While praising our writing skills or writing style is appreciated, it doesn’t need to be said on every fic and every chapter that you read. If you regularly comment on someone’s work that’s telling enough that you like our technique. Readers shouldn’t feel pressured to have to praise a writer’s abilities every time they want to comment.
In the grand scheme of things, talking about the fic/chapter is actually more helpful to us writers instead of spewing praise. It’s the same with artwork. As nice as it is that people tell me “wow your art is so pretty!” it’s a LOT more useful to me to get comments like “I love their expressions!” or “the lighting on this is gorgeous!” because then I know WHAT people are liking about it. If no one ever comments on my backgrounds, I now know what to improve. If most people comment on liking the expressions, I now know the strong points of my art and can use it to my advantage to make even better art in the future.
The same goes for fic. If multiple people tell me they liked a certain part of the story I now know that things similar to that are a hit. It’s feedback I can use to improve the story and give my readers more of what they want. Without that I have no idea what they like about the fic.
Talking with a writer about their story also gives them inspiration!! Nothing gets us more in the mood to work on a fic than to have people wanting to talk about it. A lot of times just talking about one of my fics with someone will give me that push to continue working on it. Getting a comment that just says “great chapter” or “you’re a great writer” doesn’t do much to motivate us to continue that particular fic. But if you talk about the story and the characters it gives us motivation to continue working on it, may even give us ideas for future chapters. I would hope that those of you with “comment anxiety” find this approach so much easier than trying to praise the writer every time you read.
So that fic the author hasn’t updated in forever that you’re dying to read? Talk to them about the fic and the elements of the story! It will make the writer want to talk to you about it and will get their mind thinking about it, hopefully inspiring them to continue where they left off. Fics that are left in silence are more likely to be abandoned or even deleted because nothing feels worse than putting your heart into a story to have no one say anything about it.
TLDR; Writers do not want praise, we just want to talk with our readers about the story itself, and these are the kinds of comments that inspire us to keep writing more.
YOU! YOU CAPTURED IT!
THIS. I got a comment pointing out all the little plot lines in a story once by my very good friend, and it meant so much to me. Those comments are just wonderful. I do love to talk about my stories, the praise is nice, yes, but the discussion is much more satisfying
@ mutuals, followers, anyone in the GB fandom really. Like, reblog, or comment on this post if you’re cool with me dm-ing you to talk about Ghostbusters or Harold Ramis content in general. None of my friends are into ghostbusters and I need more people to talk to or I’ll go insane lol. I also have a discord acc if anyone would be interest in talking over there.
Do it.
Hey, if you consider yourself part of the ghostbusters community, could you like / reblog this? Want to see how many of us there are.
If anyone (followers included, no matter how few you guys are) can help me use this site properly, please help...
I have been on Tumblr for years (not this account, but I can't remember when I started exactly) and this has basically been my official deal (besides stories practically long forgotten due to not knowing how to do masterlists and such).
Help is wanted and needed. ;-:
Reblog if you think fanfiction is a legitimate form of creative writing.
Falling.
That's what I remember when I looked at you.
As soon as you turned your gaze to mine, an ocean clear of destruction and fear looking into a mud ridden lake that holds nothing but what it once was in the long, forgotten past, I felt a pang in my heart that was welcomingly painful.
In my eyes, you see chocolate mixed with green herbs and blue flowers, red foods and the yellow sun. Something to savour in warmth and comfort. Hot chocolate, Macintosh apples, lavender tea, the warmth of the golden sun.
In yours, I see the sky. The sky that I uphold myself to every day, trying to reach it from the deepest depths of the ocean of tears that shackle me down to nothingness.
Uselessly drowning again and again.
I see you laughing. Oh, your laugh sounds like the rain. Gentle and unrelenting, deep within your chest.
Mine sounds like a beluga whale trying to talk.
Why must you be so close to touch, yet so far to love? I can feel you, taste you, and smell you, your love and your hopes and dreams...
Deeper.
In this pit of hell where I compare myself to a sliver of death. Death is a horrible yet beautiful truth. I find myself wondering if I have done something to taint your freeing mind, something to wound you when, in fact, I am hurting myself by worrying.
Is it not enough?
That I put myself through trials of pain, to see you happy and glowing and comfortable in the rain that is freezing and drenching to the bone that feels so electrifying but when the warm acid falls down my face in silence, you wonder if it was you that caused them.
You.
You would never cause me such pain. Temporarily, sure, but it is all me. My mind is the hell that keeps me from trying. A cage that I cannot escape from without you. You are my key, and yet it never looks like you can find the lock to this chamber that keeps my broken mind and heart from spilling out.
Running out of time.
To change and to hope, it feels like these mushrooms that bloom into and out of all of my skull's orifices won't stop growing as they continue to dwindle my living days to nothing.
Breathe.
Breathing isn't my strong suit, I wish I could stop so that I could give one final kiss before I went under. It is too damn hard to suck in air around you because you are so fucking breathtaking.
I can't lose you.
I can't afford it. You bring me to a high that I may not find in anyone else, you bring me up when I am at my lowest and I do the same because I am in-fucking-love with you. An ocean to which I can't ever reach...
Because I am nothing but a murky crater that can't find a river to reach you, to clean my scars and my burdens away as I reach the purest peace in your embrace...
Falling......
@jadedsilverlining
i am frankenstein looking at his forsaken creation…………. @milfjaster @startrekin-it @painthorseblues y’all forced my hand
This is so wonderful.
Please, reblog! IIt’s called self defense. Apart from having here, in the US, one of the highest cases of homicide and rape in the world and high rate of GBV, think about how this could help your mother or sister
It’s a shame I have to reblog, but please do the same
Always a reblog
Pass this along..💋🙏
Reblog if you: have no intention of using Post+ to put your content behind a paywall, and have no intention to pay to unlock any content hidden by Post+ either
I wanna see something.
Y'know what, fuck this bullshit. I need to know y'all are actually against it.
Reblog this if you will NOT use or support Post+.
I hope to make @staff see how that is total bullshit. Tumblr will die without writers/creators.
Tumblr Post+ and how to prevent it
Plenty of people here, myself included, don't want Post+. It's a paid subscription and will cause a lot (more) problems on this site.
What does it do?
- Allows blogs to create paid subscriptions that followers have to pay to see blog content. This can cause a lot of problems, as plenty of people come to Tumblr since it has never been a monetizable website.
- You can't block people who "support" your blog, meaning people can bypass the blocking system to harass blogs, just at a price.
- Creators have other outlets for these services, like Patreon.
- Again, nobody wants to pay for Tumblr posts.
Now, how can you help stop this?
By filling out Tumblr's Post+ survey! This allows you to give feedback about the Post+ system and what you would/wouldn't do. You can use this to directly inform Tumblr that you DO NOT want the "Post+" feature. If anyone has anything to add to this (info, updates, etc) I encourage you to! Keep resources current!
Sorry guys, but I'm sure many of you don't want this feature either. So I'm signal boosting.
I told the stars about you.
And they laughed at me, the bastards, "A lover? Oh, dear, they do not exist!"
I asked the stars about you.
Again, they laughed, the bastards, and ridiculed and scorned me, "Again! Again! Keep asking us what you want, we shan't give it to you because the lover you seek doesn't exist!!"
Every letter unsent, every tear unshed, to your address made the anger only bubble more into the parchment.
I find the written letters you and I wrote in white shambles, crushed from boiling rage, the fire licking happily at its share of sustenance, my hands blistered and bubbled by the dangerous heat.
Curse you! Curse you... The pain was unbearable, but I couldn't help but be so angry at you.
"CURSE YOU!" I cry, "CURSE AND DAMN YOU FOR PLAGUING MY LONELY HEART AND SOUL! DAMN ME TO HELL TO REPEAT THIS NEVERENDING HEARTACHE WHILST YOU LAUGH AND PLAY IN THE GARDENS OF PARADISE YOU REACH AFTER CLIMBING THE STEPS TO HEAVEN! CURSE YOU AND YOUR FELLOW BRETHREN TO DEATH!"
I couldn't find motivation to move much in my home for a month, then your letter came.
Your words filled me with love and adoration, other emotions leaving me as if they hadn't existed but moments ago, so I immediately wrote back, to set it off.
"I told the stars about you.
They thought me crazy, but I know not to believe them.
I asked the stars about you.
They tell me you do not exist, but where do your letters come from? Is this not the address you gave me to send you my love?
I love you."
I told the stars about you.
I’m sending some sort of trend here…
Batshit crazy men who could kill you and kill the world for you. Then themselves.
And then you end up not even posting it
