I remember hearing the phrase “You went to the store for butter and apples, yet you came back with potatoes and cream but I can’t hear you complaining.” and honestly I feel that describes my experience with Tumblr.
I came on here for socializing and maybe some memes but I came out with more fears and cat pics.
Happy Halloween! Have fun, make sure to be properly hydrated and to be safe! Nothing is spookier than safety precautions.
Fun fact!
If someone asks you “How many bodies do you think you could bury there?” you should not start counting.
You also shouldn’t follow up by giving an exact number.
If you, somehow, were able to do both of those, you shouldn’t end with “Of course, you’d be able to fit more if you dismembered them, tell-tale heart style.”
Writing tip I think.
Romance… JUST BECAUSE TWO CHARACTERS ARE HOT OR BECAUSE THEY HAVE ONE OR TWO GOOD INTERACTIONS WITH EACH OTHER DOESN’T MEAN THEY SHOULD KISS. What I’m saying is that all good written romance is built off of good character interactions and chemistry. That being said, just because two characters are attractive or if by plot means (if they both play a center role in the story and work together) they would normally get together doesn’t mean they should be involved in a romantic relationship with the other. Some of the best romances I’ve seen so far is ones where they actually have both chemistry and ok interactions. Basically don’t force characters together just because they would look good together.
I think the tip is over??
So I was going through my google docs on my writing account. I found this gem:
GE: JUST TRY AND CATCH ME BASTARD. GI: YOU BETTER RUN YOU WHORE! *GE is caught by GI* GE: OH woe is me~ spare the young one! Be merciful upon me! GI: LIKE FUCK I WILL BITCH! *GI bites GE and is released upon* GE: YOU FOOL! YOU BUFFOON! YOU TRIED TO CATCH A GOD! GE: WELL FUCK YOU TOO! K: What the fuck are they doing over there
I can’t find any context for this
Tumblr is the one site where I am HEAVILY confused at what the formalities are. I know that there is some form of etiquette on this site yet after a year or two of being here I have no fucking idea
Tip for they writing that I, some random person on tumblr, bequeath upon thee, another random person on tumblr.
Endings! Every story has its end. Now as most people know that’s when you tie up any loose ends in the story and try to make sure every thing is concluded. However, endings are also your final impression on the reader. While other scenes in your story may be more memorable, the ending is what sticks the most. If you wrote a sad ending, the story up to that point will now seem melancholy or sad as well. If you had a gritty ending, the story will seem foreboding.
The tip that some random person bequeathed upon another random person is over.
YES THANK YOU
All I'm saying is, if a fic refers to characters by their physical attributes instead of their names or pronouns ("he smiled at the older" "the blonde laughed") when we know who the character is, and ESPECIALLY if the descriptions include "ravenette" or "cyanette" or other ridiculous words--
I'm clicking out of that fic so fast my AO3 history won't even register I've been there.
My throat hurts really badly now :(
