Griogar Samnha

Dhùisg Griogar beag madainn Samhna agus lorg gun robh e air an mullach-seòmair.   Bha ochd casan molacha aig, sùilean gun cunnt, agus cnatan sticeach anns a' bhrù.   Thàinig eagal air.   B'ar le a chairdean gun robh Griogair a' mealladh 'son farpaise culaidhe-choimheache. Cha robh comasach dha dhol ris an sgoil!

Dark Easter

Florida Memory: A young girl poses with the “Easter Bunny,” circa 1953, flickr I have a dark offering for those of us who feel the rose is off the #Easter bloom, especially since the inception of the pandemic a few years ago. A brief summary: four 50-word #horror stories set in a pandemic age in which children experience uncertainty, loneliness, and fear, in which darkness and anxiety are…

sorry i cannot find the energy to get excited about hacks s3 i have been sitting in the dark thinking about jaheira from baldur's gate 3 nonstop for 2 months straight with no signs of stopping anytime soon

#jaheira is the deborah vance of baldur's gate in this essay i will #150 is the new 50 #i have never been this unhinged about any fictional character and i would like to publicly apologize to my wife for it #anyways i'm like 200 words into a karlach/jaheira fic that's just gonna be pure wish fulfillment on my end but y'all can read it if you wan

This is a no hate zone but I just wanna say if Gale from Waterdeep was a woman I would be all over that character…

#arrogant know-it-alls who are socially awkward #who use $50 words when a $5 would get the point accross #traits I find annoying in men irl and have to be paired with being a villain for fictional men to invest me #but in WOMEN #WHEW!!!!! #it just hits different #I know fandom at large would hate her tho :(

Thankfully I track my daily writing amount, because I've just been continuing writing my story the last couple days. I knew I wasn't going to win Nanowrimo this year, I was just too busy, but I hoped I'd at least hit halfway. Unfortunately, I only had 23,219 words as of the end of November 30.

#original #words #it's kind of weird that writing narrative fiction is a skill that can rust #but it did; I'm glad to be getting back to doing it sometimes #if only I had an extra 8-no 20-no wait 50 let's say at least a hundred hours a week #I'd be able to properly practice all of my arts and hobbies #and still fit in almost enough reading and game playing #even some fuck all on the weekends

a friend of mine is currently reading Don Quixote which was written as a parody of (kitschy) knight novels. Now he's speculating if such a thing could be written about the contemporary YA genre. I would read that.

#too bad YA readers take these books way too seriously. #Lewis rambling #YA negativity #At best they're smut novellas which previously were cheap paperbacks sold for 50 ct. #no shame on 50ct novelettas but at least certain genre fiction indulgent writings are honest about their quality. #These YA story bit word mashes are not worth 25+ hardbound by the quality that is in them. #but at their most common very serious social politics become a comodified backdrop to demonstrate what a progressive minded person the MC

50 Words: Not a Stone’s Throw

It would be embarrassing if anyone found out.

Since childhood, he’d loved movies with characters who possessed telekinesis. Ever since, he’d sometimes tried to levitate objects while he was alone. He must’ve failed thousands of times. But today – there was no denying the rock floating well above his outstretched palm…

You can find this and much more from me on Wordpress! 😄❤️

a lot of the fantasy ive read and disliked lately kind of reads like a screenplay there was a nyt article about this but i lost it anyway thats literally what the problem is people dont even seem to get that novels are like their own thing & in the same way that there’s things you don’t get from reading a novel that you get from a film there’s also things you don’t get from watching a film that you do from a novel :/ but it’s self-fulfilling because if you don’t use those things then your novel will just be like. a worse and more boring version of a film

#dont want to be grumpy old lady on the bus AGAIN but #a lot of us who grew up with visual media seem to just like see novels as something you do bc you dont have the budget to make a film #with the intention that if successful it will be eventually turned into a film #at least in genre fiction #meanwhile litfic has gone in the opposite insane direction #thats just like never say how anyone feels or use the word was or let anything happen in your book ever #but yeah a lot of the worst fantasy prose is like literally clearly trying to describe something so it can be built be a sfx team rather #than like so you get a compelling mental image regardless of if its accurate #and also why i hate Worldbuilding because its 50% cool gimmick to sell my otherwise bad book and 50% masturbatory lore to make a spin off #from the film and release one of those nerdy lore books #mxtx books are sooo this also like idk how much is the translation but theres so many moments of tgcf that are like #boring + incomprehensible to read #but you can tell theyd probably make a cool moment in the show. #speaking of which season 2 in my mouth please please please youre nothing

Drifty

Pawel Nolbert, unsplash Lanie felt drifty, like a gossamer web blowing with every breeze until one day she detached and flew free, floating over the highway, over the city, over her childhood home, out to the sea at sunset. She would stay here a while, she thought. There was a lot of sea.

The funnest part of an unmedicatable migraine that never ends is that you can’t even get it together enough to have fun past staring at a word document and hating yourself for 30 minutes as the general pain gets worse as I stare at the bright fucking screen, the real thrills of life here man, especially with the brain fog where I can’t goddamn think of words which gets worse when I’m in pain, that’s my favorite part/s

#fuckin set up a dumping ground for each chunk of a fic i haven’t posted #yippee #the day I stop adding chapters is the day I die apparently #it’s up to 4 probably 40+k words when it’s done #maybe more like 50 with how the first chapter is 25k on its own #minus me editing crap out to be fair #and without me adding shit in #probably more viciously cutting stuff for the goods I’ve written lately for it #it’s dumb but I like it it’s like my kinky lesbian vampire shit it’s entirwly self serving #that project is my ocs and not fanfic so y’all don’t get that also it’s 90% in my brain #and no one reads original character/original character fiction #except in book books and fuck that that’s hard for niche kink shit with a vampire and her human gf #so I’m happy to write that as my I need to write women or I’ll combust time

about to become a fuuta kajiyama apologist

#⋯ ꒰ა starry thoughts ໒꒱ *·˚ #⋯ ꒰ა milgram ໒꒱ *·˚ #HI PLEASE NOTE THIS IS /HJ (A HALF-JOKE. mostly just a joke tbh) #i don't like being an apologist for anything even if it's fiction LMAO </3 #i will stop rambling (lie) #i love fuuta (real) #i think many just look at him face-value hebhgbahbghebhgjbjhebgjh but also IDK milgram makes me confused about my thinking process and all #it is just a wednesday what the fuck. i almost forgot i unfortunately still have homework #wow anyways can't believe i was here for the milgram site lowkey breaking bcs of fuuta. his power!!! he is so fire!!! #will never shut up about those kinda puns now. sorry (not) #oops i forgot to vote for yuno at all yet. i voted for haruka yesterday!! #did innocent to lower the gap a bit but ultimately i want to make sure he gets guilty but i am so conflicted....... #yuno ngl i would w/o a doubt vote innocent but i'm unsure what would be say... best for her? she doesn't have an actual crime imo #and i'm glad a lot feel the same (she has the right to do whatever she wants w her body!) but i do think she's too careless/apathetic #not that being apathetic or careless is necessarily bad but i wonder if a triple-innocent would be best even if i agree she should be #innocent. (please don't cancel me btw i'm just stating my thoughts at all hjhbadjgh i am pro-choice i love women fr) #i wonder what would happen with a verdict of 50/50. also idk if i've been using the word verdict right all this time lmfao

11000 words \o/

#i spent 50 of those words explaining why it's wrong to fuck the queen #apparently i thought this needed to be carefully explained?? #the rest of the words were mostly about fucking the queen #so clearly SOMEONE wasn't paying attention to those 50 words that i spent so much time on #but would we be spending so much time on tumblr fixating on fictional characters if they always did what they were supposed to? #(that's deep. i am philosophy itself. fear me.) #wip tag #the Sylki AU that got longer and wronger
