You Know What? Maybe The Iceberg On Top Is How Much Words There Are On The Paper. But You Wrote That

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.

Hey everybody!

I've been hanging around on this blog for a while now. Seeing all your amazing projects combined with the enthusiasm of the lovely @anightravensecho and @dreamsofbooksandmonsters has convinced me to introduce myself a little more clearly ^^.

My name is Anne. I'm a student and enthusiastic reader and writer. I started this blog because I make aesthetics moodboards when I'm stressed and I enjoy talking about writing projects. I thought I should combine the two and make fanart for WIP's and OC's. I'll certainly continue this, but I want to throw in some more writing-related stuff, too!

I used to be hooked on fantasy, and though this genre still has a special place in my heart, I now read (and write) anything and everything. I play a lot with diversity and (art-) history in my work. My current WIP is called Elementary (as a working title). It's a historical fantasy, set in England around 1800. It’s about a band of traveling artists/magicians (The Elements), each of them having left their homes and joined the group for their own reasons. I follow a couple of them throughout the story as they slowely split up.

I'd love to hear all about your work! Please do come into my inbox for a ramble, a question, a talk, a rant or to request an aesthetic moodboard. And maybe like or reblog this, so I can check out your blog!

Love and happy writing!

how do you make your mood boards?

Hey friend, thank you for the question! It’s quite a process, actually. If I make a moodboard for a request, I start out with making a clear list of the information I have, together with ideas for colors and such.Then, I go to tumblr/google/pinterest and just ‘look around‘. Sometimes I search for specific quotes or images, sometimes I simply look up things like ‘blue aesthetic‘, to gather inspiration. I try to make combinations of clear-cut ‘object-images‘ (like: if an OC always wears trench coats or has a loyal dog, I will look up pictures of those), and images that are more focused on the personality of the OC.Browsing like that, I collect way to many images. When I think I have enough, I have a critical look at my pictures and my first list, and decide if I am missing an important aspect of the character. If possible, I try to have at least one image for each aspect/point on the list. When I think I have enough, I start combining things. I simply put together pictures in Paint, try different sizes and combinations. It is easy to see which set-ups look pleasing and which don’t. I shift around images till I have reached a balance in colors that I like. Sometimes I cannot use pictures I really like, because they do not fit the overall scheme.I hope this is not too much/too vague. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!

This blog will combine three things I love dearly: writing, talking about writing, and aesthetics. So if you have an amazing OC for which you crave an aesthetic moodboard or Instagram page - tell me all about them, and I will make you one! After all, every writer needs fanart.
