Just posted Chapter 20 and maybe I'm drawing this out a little. I don't want to let this go, fearlings. 😭 But I promise I'm still writing each day. Just taking it slow and savoring it before I have to post the finality that is the epilogue.

Opening tumblr when I’m not alone is an extreme sport because idk if I’m gonna see the most wholesome fan art ever or those same characters receiving back shots fully uncensored

An updated cover for The Swallow's Promise!

I have tied my hair back in a high bun and donned my headphones. You know what that means, fearlings? It's writing time! Expect another chapter of Power Play! Thinking about posting another chapter of Mistakes in Witchcraft and might even get to Don't Fear the Reaper! Be prepared, fearlings. The next chapter of Power Play is a doozie!

"If you use em dash in your works, it makes them look AI generated. No real human uses em dash."

Imaging thinking actual human writers are Not Real because they use... professional writing in their works.

Imagine thinking millions of people who have been using em dash way before AI becomes a thing are all robots.

REBLOG IF YOU'RE A HUMAN AND YOU USE EM DASH

to those of you who are moving here from tiktok, from someone whos used both tiktok and tumbr for years...

1. DO NOT censor your posts

dont censor sex, abuse, suicide, dont censor it. we dont have censors like tiktok does, you wont be banned for talking about these things and tagging them properly helps people avoid them (also, we dont have shadowbanning here)

2. we dont really have an algorithm

you follow who you follow, and you see posts from who you follow or what you search. the 'for you page' is basically useless here. this also brings me to my next two points

3. dont crosstag

we get it, on tiktok you have to crosstag for reach, but thats not really a thing here. just tag your posts properly (also posters often leave more info about the post in the tags!! and when you reblog stuff you can leave your own notes in the tags, kind of like the old "repost comments" on tiktok)

4. dont expect to go viral/be famous

"viral" isnt really a thing on here (at least not for the average blogger). your posts will probably get 2-10 likes and you wont get nearly as many followers than on tiktok. thats just how tumblr is

5. blocking is your best friend

tiktok is VERY discussion based, and while tumblr is much more discussion based than other social medias, its still not a good place for ragebait/discourse. dont interact, itll make your experience worse in the end, just block and move on

6. you cant go into someone elses house and start rearranging their furniture

this is tumblr, not tiktok. dont diss old tumblr users for how they use the site or try to change them, thats like going into someone elses house and trying to rearrange their furniture. we've been here longer and we're familiar with the site and its culture, either find your niche, adapt, or find a different app

Ever listen to a song absently but then hear a random lyric and be like... "did they really just say that"? XD Jamming to music while writing will do that to you!

I'm sick as hell, guys. I'm not gonna be getting any chapters done anytime soon. I'm sorry!🤒😷🤕

Chapter 14 is gonna be a beast. It's already over 2k words and I'm not done writing it yet. It should be up soon though, so be on the look out for it! In the mean time. Here's a song hint for it to whet your whistle!
