Everyone Is Grabbing Each Others Hands. And Patting Backs. And Slinging Arms Over Shoulders. Please Stop

SEND THAT BITCH MY WAY

Nicholas: ‘Eros, please, hold on!’ Eros: ‘No, you hold on.’ 

I can't believe I made his last words a corny joke. 

for any ocs who have died, whether permanantly or otherwise - what were their last words?

ask for a commission from these artists, who are donating the funds to palestinian aid charities. the thread also has lots of places to donate.

Just a reminder that I still make OC moodboards! Just tell me about your characters and I will create something (hopefully) aesthetic for them :)

You know what? Maybe the iceberg on top is how much words there are on the paper. But you wrote that entire chunk of rock. Because a word is not just a word. With every sentence you weave, you are conveying a multitude of meanings, you are juggling different characters with different agenda’s, you have pages of background info rolling around in your head.  After writing, the iceberg may just be two characters having dinner together and talking about their spaghetti for a full paragraph. Yet beneath the surface you have written two characters carefully scanning each other’s reactions for any sign their dinner-date is in love, too.  The iceberg might be a stiffening of character A’s stance, a look, the balling of fists. But you know the trauma that happened when A was sixteen and you have been digging and groping for the most subtle and yet most right way to convey that.  For every action you write, you have written thoughts, discussions, motivations in your head. For every scenery you have plannend a country. Even if you only write a hundred words per hour, you are writing half a life. And your readers might not see the entirety of your work. But as they admire the iceberg, part of their awe will come from sensing something vast and enourmous underneath the water.  

working on my Sheith fantasy au and it’s… going. slowly

do you still take requests? if you do, is it paid?

It's been a while, but sure, new requests are welcome! And no, definitely not paid. Just a little gift from one writer (or D&D-player) to another :). 

what is the most unique aesthetic you've either created for a character, or someone has sent into you?

That's a difficult question! I've read such awesome character descriptions and I hope I created something nice for each of them. I am still very happy with the Instagram-aesthetics I did for @futureauthor-mabye, that felt like a unique little project!

I am also satisfied with all my Waterwegen aesthetics, especially the one I made for Paco and the one I created for the full story. It's a story with a very distinct feel to it and I like to think I captured it pretty well.
