a mix of a first/second draft as I'm also writing by hand and retyping on this (this number is actually a little lower)

BTF -- 6,965 / 95,034 w

third draft rewrite of old story

YMM -- 30,860 w

mainly just for fun / experimenting with writing

an rewrite of one of my stories I wrote as a kid (now for adults with all the rage!)

[untossedchoclit]

Now that I'm out of school (officially this Thursday), I'm debating if I want to post the writings (poems and short stories) I did for my classes...

None of these would be related to the projects I'm working on... well, maybe all but one. Mostly just standalone narratives...

ok I know everyone’s considered Ryland grace wearing an “I put the ace in space” t shirt but. have we considered the infinitely funnier option of putting this shirt on eva stratt

[untossedchoclit]

I wrote some new pages for #projectymm but dont have the word count to update it as it was on a different device 😅

roald dahl was antisemitic and misogynistic. george orwell was openly homophobic. edgar allan poe married his 13 year old cousin. dr seuss cheated on his wife (and was racist as well as antisemitic!). hp lovecraft was racist as fuck. anyways they’re fucking dead it’s not like you’re enabling their behaviors in the afterlife or something. then again I think they bleed into the books so uh keep an eye out for that

the difference between these old white guys and jk rowling is that the former group is all dead. jk rowling is alive and using your money to oppress trans people

[partywithponies]

Strange racists and homophobes on the internet seem to have access to an alternate way cooler version of TV than me. "every white character on TV is in an interracial relationship" "every show has a gay couple in it" "main characters keep having to secretly be bisexual and nonbinary" "every show has gratuitous full frontal nudity" like damn promise?? What channel???

one time in college i was in a creative writing class and this guy was holding up the critique with what i can only describe as like cinemasins dinging another student's writing. and at some point the professor said "the plot is the fork and the prose is the meal. you are critiquing the taste of the fork"

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

some of the whump prompts that are very dear to me:

character being so traumatized by the assault they went through that they’re not able to sleep properly and always jerking awake at every little noise, because they’re paranoid and scared that the people who hurt them will barge through the door and hurt them again

character being so exhausted, weak and wounded that they sleep like the dead, still and limp and are practically in a coma-like state. they are completely unaware of the presence of any other people in the room (maybe these people are doctors and nurses who are helping them, maybe they’re the people who have hurt them, or maybe they’re their loved ones making sure they’re safe and okay, but regardless they are so deep asleep that do not stir one bit)

"just write a little every day" ok but what if i write nothing for 3 weeks and then suddenly type like i’m being hunted by god

[theunfortunate-author]

my daily affirmation as an author

Writing Update:

The creative / experimental project I am calling projectymm for tag purposes is now at 30,860 words!

I got a spark of inspiration tonight and for this session wrote: 2869 words

No where close to being halfway through the conflict though... 😅`😭

Here's a line from this new section:

Kalan nods, mostly to himself. “You need to wash.” Marta looks down at herself. At the gore and dirt staining her arms up to the elbow, her sweater across her chest, and even some drops on her borrowed skirts. Damnit. “Keeri can show-“ “No. Follow me.” He stalks off immediately. Marta wrestles with his disrespect by herself, catching herself before the instinct to follow sets in. Do not kill the Wolf King, Marta. How long would it take for Kalan to look back? To see that she is not there with him? Would he continue to yell at her? Good, if that’s the case. She wasn’t done yelling at him either. Her answer is only three steps. Three steps and he hunches over and turns his body to the side to stare at her without too much effort in his search. Those royal eyes pierce her own as he waits, patient and pissed off. Marta clears her throat before following.

They could never make me hate you, complex female character whose reaction to trauma was not pretty and digestible like how people think it should be.

“ *Insert blank* is the villain of The Pitt ” my brother in christ, idk what show you are watching, but the only villain I see is the american health care system

Some people can rotate a cube in their mind. I can rotate multiple cubes. In my stomach. I swallowed some dice

knowing that the past tense of "hang" is "hanged" when it's a method of execution can be very entertaining because you'll be watching a horror movie and someone goes "local legend says a woman was hung in these woods" and you're like "👀 good for her I guess"
