“Your Writing Is At A College Graduate Reading Level”

Perhaps if I had written my brilliant idea down when I first had it, instead of waiting to do it later, I wouldn’t be currently struggling to remember that idea

BABES WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT?

Me, writing a couple chapters so I can be on top of my updating schedule: this is good

The gremlin living on my shoulder: you should post them now, post them right now, the people need to read them right this second, post them, don't wait, the schedule is a lie, post the chapt-

A Simple Trick for Fic Writers

Hey, if you're a fic writer and a character speaks in a different language, you don't just have to add the translation in the notes. Use the following HTML coding to add 'text on hover' to the word(s). If the reader is on a computer they can hover over the text to see the translation.

<span title="This is the text in the box!">This is the text that shows in your fic!<;/span>

Here are some examples from a fic on my AO3.

This coding here <span title="a fool, idiot (lit. emptyhead)">Eyn utreekov&lt;/span> will show this on hover.

This next example shows that you can add a lot of text. The formatting is the same as above.

PS: When doing this, there may be spacing issues, but you can edit the text through AO3's html or rich text editor. From there you can add italics (like I did), bold, etc, and fix any weird spacing issues. Just be careful not to delete the coding that you worked so hard on 😂

Looking back and going forward

apparently, having the wip document open on my computer while making tumblr posts about writing does not make words appear on the screen. interesting.

That took forever to scroll through

I totally agree about the alarms! I just have one that I change the time of whenever I need it (which was a pain on my iPhone but much easier on android)

i wish this default android clock app had "one shot" alarms. no not the timer. the alarm clock. like you set it for a time and once it goes off it disappears from your list

togruta are salamanders in my mind

u guys are hearing my ideas about this now (some of it is based on actual salamander facts others are just like. my own mind)

cold-blooded

• can’t regulate their own body temps

• prefer cooler temps though (~65°-70°)

• ahsoka’s clothing is heat-regulated

partially nocturnal

• their native planet(s) is the perfect climate for them, so they are diurnal there

• off-planet they prefer cooler parts of the day & nightime

• most active around late afternoon/evening

love moist/wet environments

• swim very well

• can hold their breaths for a long time

• dry environments cause their skin to crack

• not acclimated to snow or deserts AT ALL

• salt isn’t great either (ahsoka still eats it tho because she likes it (it burns her tongue a little but it’s Fine))

• skin is moist to the touch (ew ik but they’re salamanders guys come on)

• have to drink Lots of water if they’re in a drier climate

primarily carnivorous

• will eat other things but prefer meat

• they eat bugs too

• ahsoka will catch bugs off of trees & snack on them while on campaigns & the boys go BERSERK

• she just looks at them very confused with a mouthful of worms, and then offers one to them

babies

• they’re in eggs but it’s a live birth. egg is incubated & hatches in the mother’s womb

• babies can regenerate limbs like axolotls

• have gills that fall off during adolescence

anatomy

• biofluorescent. their markings glow under blue & ultraviolet light

• blue tongues!!! (this is very important to me)

• their fingers are very slightly webbed (like a tiny bit toward the base)

lmk if u want more bc this headcanon is constantly expanding
