My dream wedding: outside, illegal fireworks, shoes are optional, mostly potluck, someoneâs dressed as a wizard, I get to insult my relatives, hopefully some live music.
my drama teacher mentioned to us âmost of my friends from college are deadâ and I knew right away what he meant. he explained âI was a drama major in the 1980sâ and still no one else in the class understood. he explained a little bit about the aids crisis, but these kids had no idea before. it is truly heartbreaking to hear about it, and especially to see it being erased.
We're not just desperate, but we're funny too! It'd the dead of winter, and we all know that nobody in their right mind would chose to move
Weâre not just desperate, but weâre funny too!
Itâd the dead of winter, and we all know that nobody in their right mind would chose to move when thereâs 6" of snow on the ground, but thatâs where weâre at - why are we moving?
Reasons weâre moving:
*Health- My mother has been living with MS for years now, which means she can no longer walk well, nor move or lift anything.
She just recently had an MRI and a CAT scan showing an abnormality on her lung. We donât know if this is related to the mold, or god forbid, is cancer - but we know that we cannot deal with either outcome in this house.
* A landlord who has not addressed issues, such as broken and dangerous front steps, supplying adequate fire alarms, and other issues such as:
-Heat - despite plastic on the windows, there is still cold wind entering the house, and the heat exiting the house. In addition to that, we hadnât had heat until Nov. 1st, despite the cold, due to the landlord not having the heating system fixed.
- Mold in the basement and the walls, that has resulted in difficulty breathing while in the house (though the difficulty subsides when at friends houses) as well as other mold related illness symptoms.
Essentially, our living situation is no longer bearable, and though moving in the winter is not ideal, we canât stay here any longer.
What we need:
Weâre looking to raise $1,000 by December 15th to help with the cost of hiring movers (as stated above, my mother is disabled and I cannot move our possessions by myself) as well as help with paying for a security deposit on an apartment.
If anyone wants to donate directly via paypal or by mail, our paypal link is: paypal.me/moldrelief2018 and our mailing address is 105 Court Street #161 Middlebury VT 05753
Any help would be incredibly helpful and deeply appreciated!

Large. Fucking. Mood. You canât consider yourself an ally if you just support hot trans people. Thatâs just being a fetishist. Your ability to pass or even just your general looks hold no bearing on your right for human love and support.
Bizarre AU where Character A was cursed for their vanity and now has to wear an eye patch over one of their eyes. Character A explains it as an âaccidentâ, but one day, Character B sees Character A without their eye patch on and gets a glimpse of what is underneath â a solid, sparking geode, which has begun to spread and transform the skin surrounding Character Aâs eye as well.Â
How to Write When Youâre Scared to Write, a novel by me: Someone who is terrified of writing.
I always read advice to beginners from professionals and they make it sound so goddamn easy: âJust do it!â âStart now!â âJust write a bunch/film a bunchâ - Itâs great advice and we should all follow it, but itâs more than that. Starting shit is scary as fuck yâall.Â
So hereâs my advice as a beginner to beginners:Â
Keep a little notebook with you and write down every idea. Every. Single. One. You think youâre gonna remember them - âThis is such a fantastic idea, itâll stay in my brain, I donât need to write it down.â WRONG. Write that shit in your little notebook because before you know it youâll start thinking about what you want for dinner and itâll be gone forever. I favor the little 3 pack Moleskine notebooks because they fit into my back pocket.Â
Alternatively: Get a voice recorder. And get used to looking like a weirdo when you talk in it. I drive a lot for work, so I canât always pause to write down an idea. THIS one is only $40 for a ton of memory. Also, the little buttons are nice so youâre not fumbling with the voice recorder app on your phone while youâre driving.Â
Now for the fun part-Â
Writing exercises. Just beginning to write your own shit is scary as fuck. You have to make up characters and plotlines, witty dialogue... Incredibly rewarding, but scary. Some more good advice Iâve heard is to âJust write a sentence. You donât even have to keep it in the story, you can edit it out later. Just write a sentence.â
However, sometimes you gotta warm up your creative juices. Just get all them juices nice and warm. Ew. And itâs easier to do this with a throwaway story, or some creative exercise that doesnât require you to create characters or plotlines. This is the reason I primarily write fanfiction. Itâs nice to just WRITE and use characters who are already developed.Â
One of my favorites is- If youâre warming up to write a screenplay, pick a scene in a book you love, or even some random book off the shelf, and write it in screenplay format. Not word for word, that doesnât count. Imagine the scene and write how you see it. How the audience would see it. Iâll attach an example.Â
On the other hand if youâre writing a novel, pick a scene from a movie or TV show and write that in novel format. Pick up on the subtext, what the characters might be thinking, decide whose point of view it is, how do those characters feel? Describe this visual scene in your own words. If you wanna take it farther, you can unpack the sentences. How? Â
These are good ways to get into the writing mood without having to stress out too much. And now youâre warmed up and all ready to write your own shit.Â
Okay thatâs all I have for now. Time for me to go write some throwaway sentences.Â
In the meanwhile, listen to this episode of Scripnotes https://johnaugust.com/2017/getting-stuff-written And then go and listen to ALL the episodes of Scriptnotes because theyâre fantastic. And go look up John August on Youtube.Â
My novel to screenplay exercise example under the cut. Itâs a scene from Tithe by Holly Black that I like a lot. I didnât edit it or do much besides write what I saw in my head.Â
