Hi, sorry for this but you are a writer, so umm.. I was hoping you could give me some tips/advice on how to write?

tbh the way I got into writing is a bit insane, but I do have some advice that can help. gonna put it under a cut just because it got kinda long

honest to god, one of the best pieces of advice is something you're already doing because reading can genuinely help you with becoming a better writer. stepping outside of your usual genres or authors can help expand your viewpoint and introduce you to more narrative styles so you can play around and see what works for you. eg. if you mostly read first person, give second person a shot. or if you're an omniscient third person, try limited third person. or even retrospective first person, because i often see people complain about first person pov when it's married with a present tense story. if you have a first person narrator talking about events in the past as if talking to you, or a journal it often takes an entirely different angle and it's something I've played with in Homestuck fics because that fandom tends to be more open to narrative experimentation. Writing is honestly a lot of looking at stuff you like (much like art) and smooshing it all together. Personally, I've gotten a lot of my writing style from stuff like The Locked Tomb, admittedly Lovecraft was foundational (but this is a great example of why to always remain critical considering his bullshit), so was Homestuck and Rick Riordan's stuff. I'm never trying to copy them wholesale, but I am looking at aspects I like - such as Riordan's humor intertwining with the narrative and narration, or the deeply unreliable narrators that Muir writes, or even how Homestuck balances purple prose with gut wrenching conciseness when it counts. A lot of modern day fast food fiction takes out a lot of the stuff that actually builds a story - pacing, playing with narration and technical writing - so you need to be conscious of what you're looking for in things. Often more established authors get to do weirder stuff than new authors, but don't discredit new ones because that would be leaving out folks like Xiran Jay Zhao and their phenomenal prose.

Another thing that helps greatly is reading writing critique. Video essays on books or even more critical thought pieces on writing, tropes, etc. can help you learn more about why something works. Lots of different channels on YouTube dedicated to dissecting media, absolutely recommend stuff like Hello Future Me, Overly Sarcastic Productions (real world ties + mythology, great basis to build things on), Zoe Bee (writer + commentary), Nerdwriter1 (media analysis + commentary), Just Write, and Tale Foundry. For adjacent suggestions that can help build up alternate perspectives that aren't directly about writing but are about critical thinking with stories (which is frankly an important skill to have), I definitely recommend Princess Weekes, Accented Cinema, Now You See It, Dominic Noble, The Storyteller, and Pop Culture Detective. A lot of this is discussing film (save Dominic Noble, who also talks about books a Lot), but the core essence of storytelling is helpful regardless of what angle it comes in - be it video game, movie, tv, or book reviews and analyses.

Actual writing. Varies on the person on if they do outlines or not and how, but I still recommend trying to do an outline when you're first starting out. One habit to immediately knock yourself out of is writing things chronologically. If you're working on a big piece and have more energy to write something in the middle? Put that in a new doc and leave a placeholder for where you're at. Legitimately, getting words on the paper is more important than those words being good. Because you can always come back and edit things to make sense.

Always edit what you write. I hate the "no beta we die like real men" attitude because people will dunk on editing but then praise stories for having "firm and satisfying" connections which can only really be built through editing. Your first draft is your rough idea. Your second one is when you read through and have it make sense. Three is making that make sense, and maybe 4 is more just grammar and spelling errors. Edit as many times necessary to make sure you like it.

Always work in broad strokes, then move in finer like with anything. Do a general idea for a story, then your main story beats, then how you connect them together, and then the nitty gritty of each. Keep lots of notes - do not rely on your head solely for everything - and just also be willing to let things go if they change.

What I tend to do when I write is I want a good flow. I often get that from reading my writing out loud to hear how it sounds, but I'm looking for a good beat to read along. Because even if the sentence is grammatically correct and structurally sound, it may not be very interesting to read. Like you could say someone feigned a polite expression to not let the other person know that they didn't feel comfortable with a topic, or you could go the angle I went with recently of "she painted herself an interested expression to wear as dread began to gnaw at her gut." Sometimes the more colorful or out there the language is, the better it sounds when you read it. Like instead of saying "that's just how things go for them" you could say, "but Fate had a funny way of making her disdain known for (X character)". And this is where reading other peoples' work comes in real handy because you can get a lot of examples of how people write things.

I also try and reflect themes of the story into the writing itself, like this section of a draft:

Still nothing. Seemed he wasn’t going to bother with a glass, instead just ripping the top off of some bottle of gin and tipping it back with little regard for himself. Still that chronometer ticked on; still that taught tension like another arrow had been drawn. A million and more things flooded Ysayle’s mind, itching to loose them at Estinien, yet found herself stuck in indecision as she stared daggers into him - ever her opposite as he just seemed despondent. The gin bottle hit the extended shelf loudly; one hand a fist around the bottle, the other balled up on the surface - knuckles as white as bone. Still, Estinien said naught. Still, the chronometer ticked on. Still, Ysayle’s heart roared in her ears - poisonous words damming up her throat.

The theme of this story is avoiding the mistakes of the past. How things often can wind up cyclical, and the goal is to break from those cycles and repeats. So naturally, several points of the narration itself repeat itself. This isn't standard writing style, but it gets that point across by repeating "Still" as the scene crawls on. I also use a lot of alliteration in my writing because I personally find it fun? So "a maddening matter made most malign", for example.

It also helps to change up how you write or what descriptors you use based on the character whose head you're in, even if it's third person. Third person can have a voice and I often use it to speak aloud a character's thoughts instead of relying on italicized dialogue-thoughts. It makes the dialogue-thoughts appearing hit more when they do instead of just having to be subjected to internal ramblings constantly. Like in this fic I just published:

“...Can we talk about it on the morn?” “What for?” You don’t know what it is you ask of me. “Tired,” Estinien said with a shrug. “We’ve morning patrol, remember?”

Compared to this fic:

“Yes, confusingly.” Her tone was flat as she leaned once again on Surkukteni’s shoulder, thankfully on the uninjured side. “I fear I may have been wrong, though I truly doubt it. To deny me twice, then throw a fit? I wonder — why didn’t you go through with it?” Not even Surkukteni had that answer. For the umpteenth time during that conversation, she refused to look at Her Darkness. That desire — twisted and poisoned as it was — was one that still surfaced from time to time, yet like clockwork made her ill and was banished from her thoughts. Why was that? She felt scorned back then, wishing the universe would correct this error in sparing him but taking Ysayle — but was she not the one who helped save him? Who helped tear those eyes from his armor? She easily could — and had previously — bluffed that it was to destroy the eyes and be rid of the threat, but given her hesitancy now? Why?

All of Surkukteni's thoughts are condensed into the narration so that I can separate out her thought dialogue from idle musings since she - specifically - has a connection with something that can talk telepathically. This thing comments on the literal narration of the story, so when she's directly addressing this thing it's thought-dialogue. But her actual thoughts become narration to avoid spending too much time with that, as I find it's better used sparingly.

Motivation for writing is probably the hardest thing, and best I can advise is to get really into critiquing the stuff you like because you wind up finding a lot of material in fix-it stuff, or just wanting to see more of stuff like you. It's part of what drives my xiv stuff due to how they treat female characters, and I really just wanna see more sapphic bi4bi. So considering it's something I've been stuck in for a very long time now and really like the ambient lore and wish it would do better, it's fueling my desire to write. And from there, there are so many other angles to take - like building ocs, building lore. Finding a sandbox is genuinely one of the best ways to do it. Again, like. You'd be surprised at how much is there because of spite. LOTR has Eowyn because Tolkien didn't like that the "can be killed by no man" thing in Macbeth was resolved with a character born by c-section, so he instead wrote Eowyn, the woman who killed the Witch-King of Angmar. C.S. Lewis didn't like the fact that Tolkien believed that modern technology - or slightly less modern technology - didn't believe in fantasy and he explicitly cited lampposts. And this is why there's just a random light post in the middle of nowhere in the Narnia books.

Critique is good and healthy. I'm critical with the stuff I like and my own things so I can work on them and myself. It's fine to like something that you don't wholly agree with, especially if you're using it to inform how you build on it or build your own things. Like I dunno, I looked at Dante from Devil May Cry and went "what if he was trans" and now I've got Rhombi, a character who has stepped really far away from the OG Dante mould, but you can still see hints of it as I used what I wanted to see out of DMC to build this bisexual disaster of a guy. I was disappointed by Elsword not really committing to some of their character concepts, so I kinda just took Eve (and admittedly Add) and made them into Celes and Neilos and took them to their logical conclusions. All three of them were originally fantrolls at some point, so most of the heavy lifting was done when I was back in Homestuck and all I had to do was scrub the barcodes off of them to build them up in an original verse.

Chemistry is also crucial. If characters aren't vibing, move on. Do not force it. Good chemistry can save a bad story (eg. FFXV) and bad chemistry can ruin a good story. Often it's the characters that drive a story so you need to do a lot of plotting and planning. Most writing is honestly just planning before putting the words down.

And I'm very much so rambling by now but my main points are these (+ others I'm realizing while typing):

Plot a Lot and keep lots of notes, and also organize those notes. The contents don't have to be pretty, but you'll thank yourself in advance if you at least sort them by core idea

Getting words down is more important than getting them down correctly. You can always come back and edit it when you have an idea of how to make it work

You can always place a [insert scene here] tag so you can keep your flow and don't get caught on something.

You also don't have to write chronologically - you wanna write the big confession scene before the intro? do it! just jump right into it!

also don't be afraid to delete stuff or remove it from your draft. save things for later to see if they work elsewhere, because maybe it could be a better spinoff.

dont listen to the advice of "if it really matters, you'll remember it in the morning" that advice was given by neurotypicals who don't have memory issues. make notes of EVERYTHING and then delete the ones that don't work

sometimes writing by hand vs computer can really make a difference in how you think. handwriting is slower and makes you think about stuff, so you may want to keep journals for random snippets or ideas like how doodling is good for building up your habit of drawing

Outlines can help but how you outline is up to you. Try a few styles out and go with what works best.

I cannot stress enough that having something like a marker board to write out your broad stroke story ideas is really really nice

Broad strokes first, then narrow it further and further down. Don't get wrapped up in the nitty gritty details

Chemistry is crucial and can often save a piece you're not fully feeling.

Read your stuff out loud while editing because it can help point out stuff that's not jiving! I find it helps a lot with dialogue

Read a lot. Listen to critique. Be more critical. Also don't limit your idea of stories to just books - expand the media you consume and you'll find really interesting stories that can help with yours

Don't be afraid to use tropes, but also don't super rely on them to where you're just checking off boxes instead of coming up with natural scenarios built on chemistry (eg. having the nerdy goth girl is fine, but the way the trope ends in most media ("fixing" her or just having her be a quirky cynical critic) may not fit with your story and it may be better to see how the story plays out rather than forcing it into something it's not)

Iron Widow is a good example here: the relationship between Zetian and Yizhi is pre-established and comes off as sort of "boy next door" vibes, or at least the very dedicated childhood friend. It quickly becomes apparent that he's as much a co-conspirator in her plans as Shimin is. The guy can be ruthless when given the chance, and that's how Yizhi goes beyond the initial trope and defines himself outside of it. Same with the contextualization of Shimin's seeming "aggression" as the "bad boy" and figuring out where that problem/persona actually stems from, and then the shift of viewing it as less aggression and more retaliation and self preservation.

Find something you do really want to write about, like filling a void in a piece of media you like or doing a take on media that made you mad or disappointed. Jane Eyre is technically fanfiction because the author wanted to see more of Jane and didn't get that. The Divine Comedy is self insert fanfiction of Dante Alighieri as he does worldbuilding with Christian mythos regarding heaven and hell. The Riordan verse is his interest in mythology crossed with a desire to give his son a protag that was like him (specifically ADHD and dyslexic), which then became wanting to let kids see themselves in the different halfbloods in the series.

There's a lot of ways you can get started writing, but the best way is to just write goofy stuff for yourself. Get out stuff that may look bad at first, but you go back and read it and critique it. Just getting yourself into the habit of writing helps a lot, because again: it matters less about the quality, and more getting it on the page and actually having something. You can always fine-tune writing, after all.

My first FFXIV fic isn't actually even published. It was just me writing something rambly about my Warrior of Light when I was starting to figure her character out. It looks nothing like what I'm doing now in part because that fanfiction became a launching point for me to work on others. I've got a lot of drafts that will never see the light of day because these were proto-concepts that became the stuff I wound up publishing. It's fine to have drafts that remain drafts because you can take that as practice, and practice is good. Anything that you write has value because you can use it to let your technical writing skills mature.

Also, don't be afraid to look for help. There are beta services on tumblr (or at least used to be when I was a teenager), plenty of writing guides or places set up to ask questions, plenty of youtubers that give prompts for you to work with. The hardest part is always getting started. But once you get past the awkwardness of the start, everything just falls into place and gets easier the longer you go at it.

You definitely have the desire for it because I've seen your very deep love of literature through the Bi-Library, so you can definitely become a strong writer if you put your mind to it 🫶 Find something to fix or address, and that usually is what gets the ball rolling. Worldbuilding is fun and can lead to something, but you can't have a well built world without a story to explore it.

Characters drive story, story is how you explore themes and the world itself, and the world itself is built on your experiences and interests. Embrace the fact that this is coming from your lens and experiences, because no media is truly void of the author and its other creators. Embrace that fact and use it as an extension of yourself. But really, just write. Literally anything. Just get into the habit of writing, and it'll progress from there!

#original #asks #answered #bisexual-coala #writing tips #long post #this is very rambly but getting into writing isnt the most straightforward thing #a lot of the time it really is just finding something that clicks and not caring about what goes on the page for the first draft #ive been writing fanfiction for...over a decade now? + a lot of rp (also over a decade) and now some p serious original stuff #my fanfiction has also gotten way more involved than it used to be #genuinely i got started writing by keeping a lot of journals and writing every idea i had even if im now embarrassed by it #what matters is just getting into the habit first and then looking at your stuff more critically once the habit is formed #it's hard to build a habit if you're immediately critical #but it's hard to maintain a habit or hobby if you're not - especially if you feel you can build on something #if you do feel it you oughta pursue it and see where it takes you #perfectly fine to not be critical with hobbies but being Constructively critical is how you improve and mature #constructive is key here. because being down on your own writing or being self deprecating is how you lose a hobby #like let's say you don't like your dialogue #go read scripts or books of stuff you like the dialogue from. analyze why they work in contrast to why you feel like yours doesnt work #maybe someone else has a solution for why it feels off #sometimes it's just as simple as taking a step back and looking at it as a whole or even just sleeping on it and coming back w fresh eyes #always approach something you don't like about your work with the attitude of ''how can i improve so i do like it''#like ''i need to be better at fight scenes. ill be sure to include more in my next piece to focus on it and maybe read some action books''#lotta ways to do it!! theres no one right way just a way that fits best for you!!!#just absolutely ignore the ''if it's a good idea you'll remember it in the morning'' stuff.#it doesn't account for people w memory issues and will screw you over #you do not have to wait until you're good at writing to start working on something. you need something to work on to improve #you can always come back to an idea as many times as you need as you grow as a writer #so just write until you build a habit and base style then analyze and move from there #fanfic is honestly really good for practicing style and technique - the characters and world are already ther so why not use em?

wip game!

tagged by @princess-of-purple-prose <33 ty for tagging me! :D

Rules: in a new post w/ rules attached, post up to five (5) filenames of your WIP’s; not titles, file names.

Post a snippet from one of them. Snippet must be words you wrote in the last 7 days. We’re posting progress here. If you haven’t made any, go make some and come back to post!

After you’ve posted, people can send you an ask with one of your file names. You must then write three sentences in that file. If the file name is one you can’t share (for example, an event fic), write three sentences on it anyway, and then write three more on another to share.

That’s it! You can invite others to join, or just post.

my five most recently edited docs are:

5 times vash needed some SUN

fabiniku…………… dies

edgeworth and his phoenix obsession acting insane

mfw my boyfriend ive been dating for 6 months thought we were just boy best friends (he is dumb and i love him)

edgeworth has to plan for phoenix not to swallow the proposal ring

i like to name my docs with at least a vague summary/idea of what im actually writing so i dont get confused looking thru my files so ummm. yeag. #2 is the only one that isn't actually a real fic idea and just a doc for fabiniku related snippets lol

would absolutely LOVE to share something from #1 because the fic is hilarious to me but unfortunately i only have a few lines written. so from #5 which is a proposal crackfic and exactly what is says on the tin:

On the third sheet, he forgoes proposal planning and dedicates a few lines to comparing the visual appeal of Miles Wright-Edgeworth and Miles Edgeworth-Wright. Then he remembers that they had already decided they wouldn’t hyphenate, seeing as they work in the same field and it would most likely become confusing or inconvenient or both, and crumples the paper with a sigh.

He misses the wastebasket again.

I am a failure and Phoenix Wright is never going to marry me, briefly runs through his head, before he remembers that Phoenix is also a massive loser and they complete each other. Perfect. I am a failure and Phoenix Wright is obsessed with me and he will say yes and we will get married, he thinks. After so many years, this therapy shit is easy.

tagging @bi-demon-ium and @kar-krashew and idk who else to tag so if anyone wants to do this u can say i tagged u :) <3 once again TY FOR TAGGING ME !!! this was fun

#edited the rules a little bit bc i dont want this turning into a chain even accidentally<3 #tag game #wip #misc

Writing Inspiration

Hi all,

I thought I’d pop on and do a little something to help pep others up. Here are some of my tried and true methods of inspiring myself to write, separated into categories:

BOOKS - Read about the craft of writing... or pick up a book in your genre (or an entirely new one!)

On Writing by: Stephen King

Writer to Writer and Writing Magic by: Gail Carson Levine*

No Plot, No Problem by: Chris Baty

The Harry Potter series - J. K. Rowling

The Hobbit + Lord of the Rings series - J. R. R. Tolkien

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

The Shades of Magic series - V. E. Schwab

Poetry (Emily Dickinson, Rainer Maria Rilke, Shel Silverstein, and e.e. cummings are my favorites)

Brain Storm by: Don Hahn

Reading Like a Writer by: Francine Prose

The Writer’s Journey by: Christopher Vogler*

Writing Down the Bones by: Natalie Goldberg*

The Art of Fiction by: John Gardner*

Steering the Craft by: Ursula K. Le Guin*

The Plot Thickens by: Noah Lukeman*

MOVIES - Watch a movie that sparks your creativity, or at least makes you happy to be a writer!

Howl’s Moving Castle (based on a book)

Spirited Away

The Little Princess (based on a book)

The Secret Garden (based on a book)

Secondhand Lions

Midnight in Paris

Dan in Real Life

Stuck in Love

ARTISTRY - Pick up a new hobby or research something new!

Knitting - you can make your friends/family/self nice things, and helps you check your tension in your hands/wrists!

Drawing - being able to draw your characters how you see them (and not based on a faceclaim) is super helpful!

Paleontology - dinosaurs are cool! No stories with dinosaurs? Maybe think about it after doing some research. Or human-dinosaur hybrids?

Space - space is INSANE. After even an hour of a wikipedia research, you’ll get sucked in forever.

Plants - try Wicked Plants by Amy Stewart*, The Book of Herbal Wisdom by Matthew Wood*, or Botany in a Day by Thomas J. Elpel*; helpful if your characters don’t have access to modern medicine!

Baking - not only will let you create something edible (YUM!) but you get to take out your frustration on kneading/stirring/whisking for a bit. Baking is all about precision, while cooking is more loosey-goosey. Any characters you can think of that are the same way?

Psychology - self explanatory; You are a human and your characters are supposed to be human-like (unless they’re dogs or aliens or cryptids or something cool), so psychology can only help in all of these instances. Read into gender, school systems, honesty, willpower, etc.

Anatomy - self explanatory; Characters get stabbed, shot, punched, etc. all the time... a little research on anatomy and physiology will go a long way in knowing which arteries are where, why bruises change color, what happens if you get punched in the face, etc.

MISCELLANY

Avatar the Last Airbender (watch it at least once if you never have)

Adventure Time (silly and heartwarming and weird)

Make playlists for your different wips! It’s distracting and relaxing! I use spotify!

Rewrite a scene from one of your favorite books. In your ideal world, what would happen instead?

Fill out character sheets! I can send you some if you need ideas!

Try out a website like WorldAnvil and get your story up there!

Write a fan-fiction! Pick one of your favorite stories/movies/shows and make your own character. What happens when you plop them in your favorite chapter/episode/scene?

Watch a video/listen to a podcast about writing! My dad got me into Brandon Sanderson’s youtube videos about writing, and I’ve been watching one during my “lunch break” every day.

Try comics! (Webtoon is an excellent app for reading them on your phone/on-the-go! I’d recommend Heartstopper, Let’s Play, Purple Hyacinth, SubZero, Lore Olympus, Castle Swimmer, Miss Abbott and the Doctor, Drawn to You by Hat-Chan, Third Shift Society, Blood Ink, Hooky, Muted, The Devil is a Handsome Man, Ava’s Demon, and tons more!)

Most of all, don’t feel pressure to publish anything. Don’t feel like you have to be productive right now. Keep your head above water and try to make time to write every day, even if it’s just a sentence or two. Hope these help!

-Kaylie-

(Books with asterisks are on my TBR (to be read) pile/list, but I haven’t read them yet, or have only read bits of them!)

Phandom Pairing Master List

Here it is, folks! An updated/updating list of ships from Danny Phantom!

(Updated Mar. 25, 2020)

The purpose of this list is documentation and, more importantly, reference. Have a ship that you want to share, but don’t know what to tag it as? Well, this list is for you, so you can tag your pairings appropriately! Is there a ship out there that you despise, or are just uncomfortable about? Check this list to see if it has a name, and you can blacklist its tag!

Here’s how it’s set up: the list is divided into 3 categories. These categories are the Humans, the Ghosts, and the Ghosts/Humans; each category goes through in alphabetical order. Every pairing is either marked with [P] or [R] to indicate platonic or romantic.

You may notice that there are a decent handful of unnamed pairings; this is simply due to me being unable to find a pre-established name and/or coming up with one at this time. I hope to update this list over time until everything has at least one name.

Suggestions are more than welcome! Think of a pairing you didn’t see? Got a ship name? Throw them at me, and I’ll add them to the list.

Now, without further adieu, enjoy!

Danny Phantom Pairing Names

- FrDP has weird pairing names. I’ve seen a few lists floating about but they’ve either been incomplete or not up to date. One night, we were talking on the slack and one of said lists were brought up... and I may or may not have got annoyed at the organization of said list, made my own list, and then updated it.

This was the result of said mess. Enjoy, phandom!

(Updated as of April 17, 2018)

Organized Alphabetically Based On the First Ship Name in Each Section

Sections:

(M/F) Human Pairings [25 different combos]

(M/F) Human and Ghost Pairings [24]

(M/F) Ghost Pairings [14]

(M/M) Human Pairings [15]

(M/M) Human and Ghost Pairings [35]

(M/M) Ghost Pairings [14]

(F/F) All Pairings [23]

Poly Parings [21]

Misc Pairings [34]

All Pairings With Danny [77]*

All Pairings [204]

*I may have missed one or two of the Danny pairings. Excuse me if I did.

(Note: The first name is usually the more well known name for the pairing, and for the purposes of organization, halfas are being counted as humans. Original chart and names came from here (x). Many pairings names taken from this (x) fic. Other name changes/additions are from phandom conversations, private decisions for a new pairing name, and/or new, recent trends for pairing names).

WARNING: This is just a list of pairing names and whether I condone said pairings is irrelevant. That being said, some pairings listed may not make you comfortable. I am including all pairings for information purposes.

If you want to add any names or if there are some alternate names I’m missing, submit them to me, or message me directly. I will not be taking names in the tags anymore.

With that, I hope you guys enjoy!

Lessons from Drawer Fic

I'll admit to being exhausted lately. (One shouldn't wake up more exhausted then one went to bed. But, this is my life and that can be status quo normal.) And I've been feeling like Scrat the Squirrel when it comes to both my writing and my current portfolio project.

You know:

Being tired, I went back and read a bunch of old drawer novel (what others might call fan fiction) and when I got to the end of where I'd written (somewhere 2/3 of the way through the third book) I read my notes and was somewhat sad that I couldn't remember exactly where or what I was going to do with it. (And also sad that the premise is so stuck in this certain fandom that I can't simply find and replace names and turn it into something salable.)

These first few novels (before I got to depressing point A and thusly got stuck and then got distracted by the Lone Prospect and the fun that biker werewolves) were the first real stories to me that proved I could write a novel with conflict, plot and a beginning and an end. The whole thing was supposed to be up to at least four or five novels before you got to the main bad guy that started the whole ruckus.) I learned a lot while writing it.

I learned about conflict. For a very long time, I had a very hard time putting conflict into my stories. Conflict is stressful even in the imagination. I felt greatly stressed and didn't desire to put stress into my fun time pretend escape, aka writing. Thus, a lot of my old stories are really long, have no real plot or stakes and thus get really boring! Sadness. Stories need stakes. They need the characters to be stressed about something and to have a portion of themselves on the line. Getting over this hump was huge for me.

I learned about research. The world for this fandom is huge, it's been rebooted multiple times, it has alternate canons, comics, television shows, movies and there is simple a ton of information that even dedicated hard core fans may or may not know. And I wanted to address some of the issues I saw in the main portion of the universe that I played in that had glaring plot holes, but first I needed to look into the rest of the universe to see what or who was already there. Then, I needed to research the actual area and learned a lot about things like police precincts and gun laws and the insanity that is the foster system and rhythmic gymnastics.

Now I do this research stuff without even thinking about it.

I learned about descriptions. Before writing this novel, I wasn't really great at descriptions. I favored leaving them out rather than having to fuss around with something that may or may not be important. (Because people glomp onto the strangest tiny details and that drives me nuts. No. That wasn't significant! It was there so you could see it in your head. Oh for fuck's sake!) But I was putting in a bunch of characters that people didn't know and creating new ones. (Police procedural buddy cops for the win.) I couldn't be lazy. I had to describe things! And it'd be silly only to describe the new things (and really obvious). So, I needed to describe what people already knew as well.

I learned that I could finish something long. You're going. "Ginny, you left off 2/3 of the way through the 3rd section of the story. How is that finishing things?" You missed the point. I finished 2 novel length stories with clear beginnings and endings. I had plots and subplots. I completed something! I could create something of a novel length that was finished and whole with a plot and everything! Maybe, maybe I could actually do this!

When you're at the Scrat carrying a coconut stage and have tons of stories in progress and you feel like drowning. Finishing something, anything is a major relief and accomplishment! Relax. Celebrate. Eat Gelato, Ice Cream, Sorbet! Order a damn pizza! Do a funky dance. You've won this minor war. You finished something! Go you! Or me.

I learned more about my writing. I'd known for a very long time that I was good at dialogue, that I enjoyed writing romantic comedies. I didn't know that in order to actual finish something I needed to throw in an explosion, a gun fight and some old one two action adventure fisticuffs. I didn't know that I wasn't that bad at description, just lazy. The concept of purple prose was terrifying and I never wanted to stray into that rabbit hole! Then, I tried it and realized that purple prose makes my brain itch and if I have a thesaurus to hand it's because I've used that word five times already or it's not quite the right word I want!

Old writing is useful. So, despite feeling like Scrat trying to shove his acorn places it just doesn't belong, I know that I'll get through this. I'll figure out how to get my brain away from world building a new series through yet more drawer fic (hindu based stuff, much fun is being had but Dawn Princess languishes) and figure out how to present my next portfolio project (good vs. evil, my usual style of showing by groups isn't working) and you know store that acorn in a hollow tree where it belongs. I've done it before. I can do it again.

Just stay positive.
