pearls are RIDICULOUS because you think you know what a pearl looks like, you can envision it in your head, it's just a simple little white dot, but then all of THESE exist also

I should probably specify this a bit more. I am absolutely not against putting these sorts of things in your writing. I am totally for it in fact. What I am also for, however, is authors specifying that they don’t approve of the actions displayed in their books. I’d rather writers not have to do this, but people often perceive fiction as reality.
Writing… opinion?
Ok so this isn’t a tip but I do find this important. Please don’t romanticize kidnapping and stalking or at least if you do please note that such activities aren’t, in reality, romantic. I have been around so many people who have copied such actions or have not been able to recognize the danger because stuff like obsession, possessiveness, and generally unhealthy habits have been so heavily romanticized. I’ve even had friends who have been stalked and yet not realized it because of these sorts of things! Please be aware of the messages your putting out through your work and don’t promote dangerous activities!
Opinion over.
The token straight is confused about the different sexualities
You know what everyone who asked me the question “What do you wanna be when you grow up?” I take back my answer.
My answer is no longer “I wanna be happy” or “I wanna be okay”
Bitch slapping is for everyone!
Important ideas to consider when creating characters who are black and indigenous people of color. (x) (Creator’s instagram post)
one of my worst writing sins is abusing my power to create compound words. i cannot write the sentence "The sun shone as bright as honey that afternoon." no. that's boring. "The sun was honey-bright that afternoon" however? yes. that sentence is dope as fuck. i do not care if "honey-bright" is a word in the english dictionary. i do not care if the sentence is grammatically correct. i will not change. i will not correct my erred ways. the laws of the english language are mine.
Writing tip to those who care.
Write stuff. It will always be hard to take the time to sit down and write, but your ideas are something that somebody out there would love to read. Try your very best to take even five minutes of your day to sit down and write.
To those who care, it’s over.
