Fudge recipe on a headstone
I feel like I should make this just to be able to say a dead person taught me how to make it. Maybe I’ll do it for Halloween.
I desperately hope that she spent her entire life telling people that they could have her fudge recipe “over my dead body.”
That last comment is absolutely worth reblogging.
#she certainly said she would take it to her grave
@docloudscomeinpurple I feel like you might appreciate the robin references
Work
Writing is a job, but therefore ought to take up all your time and be your top priority. Forget that the majority of inspiration comes from experience. Write alll the time. Write until your fingers ache. Write until you hate writing. I'm sure your weiting will be just as peppy as ever...
Add Romance
I once suggested a favorite book to a friend, but she lost interest when I told her there was no romance.
Right now, sexual tension is what’s hot. People need to not only relate to your characters, but be pulled in by the suspense of a complicated relationship. They need to be able to live vicariously through your fiction. If it makes you uncomfortable, just power through because this is what the people want and this is how you can make your story realistic. If it makes your character’s uncomfortable, all the better because that will just add more drama.
Character Deaths
Don’t know what to do about a story?
Kill a character.
Need a twist?
Kill a character. Kill five. Kill the protagonist. Kill them all.
It will give you just the edge you need and will make the story more dramatic. You get to manipulate your reader’s emotions and stay true to your uniqueness. The reader’s expectations and the value of the deaths is irrelevant.
I’m sure they’ll thank you later....
Follow Your Heart
Writing is an art and should therefore just flow from the insides of your being. If you have this need to add something really dramatic that defies the conventions of your novel go for it! What are reader expectations anyway?
Every minor character should be intensely developed because, in the real world, everyone has a long story and it’s petty to ignore it because it has no relevance to your protagonist’s life.
Sorry that I stopped posting for a while. I haven’t been feeling sassy about writing in a long time, but ever since I joined a writing forum....let’s just say I have a lot of ideas now
writing tip #1232:
show, don’t tell. in fact, don’t tell anything. leave all the pages blank and let the reader figure everything out
Torture My Characters!? BLASPHEMY!
Don’t be afraid to tortureyour characters in scenes where they must suffer.
Make your reader furious with you for doing what you’ve done to your characters.
Don’t be afraid to try it, as hard as it may be!
Happy Writing!

writing tip #582:
write what you know. teach yourself what you don’t. practise murder techniques with your friends. as well as advancing your knowledge and writing capabilities, it’ll be a gr8 bonding experience
If you don't want your writing to be rejected,
just don't write
Under no circumstances use said. It is used wa-ay to often. Have you read the jack and annie books? Everyone one always 'said.' PLEASe. It gets uber annoying like that.
Better to fail than to burn and die.
Works for writing too
Always Obey Other Author's Advice
because why be creative in a creative profession?
If you are a writer who writes for fun, perhaps you should consider keeping to yourself. Reading your own writing can be fun, or you can write fanfiction. Publishing is jsut a lot of work and really stressful with no guarrantee of success.
