future writing and the fate of this tumblr...

heyyyy....how yall doin?

I have been very much away and distant from all things relating to writing, Tumblr, AO3, and these types of hobbie-esque interests that I have. This has led to me being very ignorant and abandoning to my last project, CCSS. The main reason is schooling but on top of that I also have realized how bad I am with commitment and following through on promises. I do this all the time with my own personal stuff because I let other things rip away at my free time and when I do get time to do things like crocheting or being on Tumblr or writing, they feel like chores. A lot of these sentences are starting with "I have..." or "I do..." because I'm trying to hold myself accountable and get motivated to do these things and manage my time wisely.

Something else I want to mention is that my latest fixation is the show Big Brother and I completely forgot how much I love and am infatuated with that show. The reason I bring this up is that I have a writing project in mind that is very inspired by this reconciliation of interest. I don't want to make any promises yet or any set dates or anything but this is a thing I'm looking into and plan on doing in the background, absolutely stress free and devoid of posting it (at least immediately) and feeling required to do it.

That's really all I have to say so if you're reading, thank you!

What made you pick wattpad in particular?

I use both wattpad and ao3, but I just grew up using wattpad so I’m more familiar with it and how it works

writing dialogue? easy.

describing where everyone’s standing during that dialogue and adding action tags? impossible.

“yeah i read a lot!”

“oh awesome! What books do you read?”

Remember not to give a shit and write cringy fanfiction and make bad art and wear weird clothes and dance badly to your favorite song never stop doing these creative things that make you happy.

Might be worth saying which parts of the world this applies to, because it's not the case everywhere.

It’s the Little Things That Make Them Real: Character Quirks

Physical Quirks ❖ Cracks their knuckles when thinking. ❖ Tilts their head too far when listening, like a curious bird. ❖ Always rolls up their sleeves; even when it’s freezing. ❖ Bites the inside of their cheek instead of nails. ❖ Writes with their non-dominant hand for notes/doodles. ❖ Compulsively counts stairs, tiles, or ceiling beams. ❖ Uses hand gestures way too big for the conversation. ❖ Stares just past someone’s shoulder instead of at their face. ❖ Always needs to fiddle with coins, rings, or a pen cap.

Speech/Language Quirks ❖ Uses outdated slang like it never went out of style. ❖ Slips into another language for swears or exclamations. ❖ Repeats the last word of someone else’s sentence under their breath. ❖ Adds a little whistle or hum between phrases. ❖ Ends most sentences as questions, even when they’re not. ❖ Misquotes famous sayings but insists they’re right. ❖ Can’t resist giving everything and everyone a nickname. ❖ Stutters only on words starting with the same letter as their name.

Behavioral Quirks ❖ Always chooses the same seat in any room. ❖ Eats one food at a time, in strict order, never mixing. ❖ Picks up random objects (salt shakers, paperclips) and rearranges them neatly. ❖ Never steps on cracks, lines, or patterned tiles. ❖ Hoards receipts, tickets, or fortunes from cookies. ❖ Stares at light bulbs until their eyes water. ❖ Reads the last page of a book first. ❖ Never finishes a drink—always leaves the last sip.

Psychological/Emotional Quirks ❖ Laughs during tense or uncomfortable silences. ❖ Refuses to say “goodbye”—always changes it to “see you.” ❖ Finds comfort in exact routines (same breakfast, same route). ❖ Talks to inanimate objects as though they’ll answer. ❖ Gets unreasonably angry at minor inconveniences (a pen running out, a sock slipping). ❖ Collects bizarre little “lucky” items like bottle caps or broken charms. ❖ Panics if they don’t have something in their hands. ❖ Over-apologizes, even when clearly not at fault.
