Read a poem I wrote in 2020..

And when she rose,

from the puddles

her tears created,

Realization hit,

She didn’t even remember,

The last time you said

“I love you”

[writtenbylex]

I thought I’d share my Ao3 skin for y’all 🥰

And ikik I only removed my name in one photo… I was zooted 😆

The most frustrating experience as a writer is having a clear vision in your mind of the story you want to tell but being too afraid to put pen to paper for fear of failing to do the story justice. I’m so scared that my actual execution will fail to meet my expectations that I’m paralysed to even start.

[prophetic-writer]

You cannot fail to do the story justice more than if you never write it!

I spent so many years feeling this way and now I look back on it and I'm so glad I finally broke through that mindset because even if its the worst iteration of this story that could ever be produced, it's the ONLY iteration of the story that's ever been produced.

I’ve gotten so used to being hated that I don’t hate it.

✨Introducing Me✨

Hi future besties it’s wonderful to meet you, I’m Alexis, please call me Lexi. ❤️ Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve been telling stories. No, I don’t mean that I have a silver tongue. When I was adopted at the age of 6 with my brother, to a couple that wanted nothing more than to see their kids happy, I was encouraged to be creative, my mom painted the walls in our home different shades of blue to inspire creativity. If it wasn’t for their love and support, I don’t think I’d have the drive to write this or the book. My dad passed when I was 12, before he could see me share what I love with the world. So this book is for them, and anyone else that cares to read a Slow burn, Enemies-lovers, Romantic fantasy about humans and shadow wielders.

If you’ve been dying for a man with shadow powers,inspired by Marvels Loki, this is one I promise you don’t want to miss this ✨

* For the first time, in what felt like ages, I saw Serenity’s face lift as a wave of determination hit her “I’m not doing this for you. This is for Orion.” “There she is.” I thought to myself while truly looking at her, standing there in her armor, ready and willing to die for what her brother believed in. She was so convinced, that what we were doing would bring peace. All I could think to say was “Okay.”

Soft Gestures for Comfort

Bringing them a blanket when they’re curled up on the couch.

Whispering, "It’s okay, I’m here," when they wake up from a bad dream.

Stroking their hair gently when they’re lying on your lap.

Running a warm bath for them after a tough day.

Holding them close and saying, "I’ve got you," when they’re upset.

Preparing their favorite comfort food when they’re feeling low.

Turning off their alarm and letting them sleep in when they’re exhausted.

Reading their favorite book to them before bed.

Playing their favorite soothing music to help them relax.

Just sitting in silence with them, letting them know your presence is their safe space.

[helpful-writing-tips]

When writing emotionally reserved characters:

Show your character's struggles with holding in emotions. Just because your character won't let themself go in public, doesn't mean they don't struggle holding everything in.

Find a motive. Pride and/or consideration for those around them can make emotionally reserved people hold back more than would be considered good for them. There are other reasons too, perhaps the initial cause and the reason now are different, but try to give them a reason.

Show side-effects. Everything you bottled up shows itself in another way, whether it's physical or mental. This can be long- and short-term, depending on the severity of the emotions.

Give them coping mechanisms. Everyone who wishes not to show certain emotions has a trick or two to keep themselves in check. Taking a sip of water, not looking people in the eyes, clenching their fists, breathing just a bit too deeply.

Write subconscious signs that they give off, which close friends or family might pick on. Just because these characters want to keep their emotions to themselves, doesn't mean they don't give off signs. Some manage to keep said signs well hidden from those closest to them, but it's more common for environment to pick up on something at the very least.

Not me reposting for my own personal reminder

[prophetic-writer]

"How do you write such realistic dialogue-" I TALK TO MYSELF. I TALK TO MYSELF AND I PRETEND I AM THE ONE SAYING THE LINE. LIKE SANITY IS SLOWLY SLIPPING FROM BETWEEN MY FINGERS WITH EVERY MEASLY WORD THEY TYPE OUT. THAT IS HOW.

[writtenbylex]

This is truth
