Why does being really sleepy either make u feel mellow and content or like you're going to actually kill yourself for real this time & no in-between
Birdsrightsactivist Twitter = Spite is so revolutionary for me; God bless.
I genuinely don't know how I made the connection but I'm so glad I did because now I cannot unsee it
Why do you reblog your own fics so much?
Because someone might as well!? And look at this. Look. At. This.
Does this look right to you??
These are just the last three fics I wrote. I appreciate the likes, believe me I do, but you have to understand. Likes do nothing for content creators. It’s the reblogs. Because that’s how you find shit on your dashboard. Through reblogs. Not likes. This isn’t twitter or tiktok or instagram. This is a website that’s run by the reblog system.
Reblogging helps content creators put their stuff out there. Why do you think so many people stopped writing fanfic and creating beautiful fanart and edits? It’s because they put in hours of work and don’t get nearly enough notes for their masterpieces. Yes we do this because we enjoy it but like...some validation won’t hurt. A boost of confidence here and there might be all someone needs to finish whatever thing they started and left.
Anyway, I’m still going to reblog my shit...
Tumblr isn't giving us back the boops for ides of march so I will do it myself.
I just put these together real quick feel free to use them.
I really needed this

So here is a collection of some pointers that I use when I get stuck while writing (which as some of you know happens literly all the time)— I hope it helps anyone else who is struggling! These work for me but they might not work for everyone! I urge you to try them out!
settle your mind and create a space for your thoughts and ideas to flow
Make sure you are comfortable in your surroundings wherever that might be. I personally prefer to be tucked into my comfy armchair with a blanket!
Take a shower!! Might sound weird but if I feel dirty or oily or gross I can’t not write!!! Go take a shower, get clean!!
Get a snack and/or drink. Fuel for your brain!!! My favorite writing snack is tea with cookies, scones, biscotti, or any other pasty type of thing.
Write when you are alone! I can tell you that you will not accomplish much if your surrounded with family or friends. Distractions are your enemy!!!!!
Pick a time to write! I prefer writing early early morning or at late night (probably bc those are the time my world and family are silent and still sleeping).
If you are stuck on a specific scene try to imagine yourself there and as your character. Or even go to that place irl—idk if y’all got forests near you but if that’s where your scene takes place march your ass down there, find a nice tree to climb, and write. (Just don’t get wacked, I would be very sad to hear that my tip got you murdered lol)
Get background noise! I personally find songs with lyrics to be too distracting when I try to write. I use an app: Relax Meditation (it’s free). You can pick whatever sounds you want and lump them together and into like a song/mix. I usually play the sounds I need to try and immerse myself into the enviroment of my character. It really helps!!
Don’t keep stopping to change words or think “I’m being to repetitive in my language” —just keep going and fix it later. At the end of ur writing session go back and google some synonyms!!!
Put down some bullet points of what you wanna write—give yourself a mini outline to work with.
Do not write something that you don’t wanna write!!! (Unless it’s for school then you kinda gotta) if someone requested a mushy love scene between two characters that you just loath DONT DO IT!!! It will probably be shit bc your heart is just not in it.
Try changing up what your writing! If you are stuck on your fanfic/book/essay/whatever and just can’t look at it any longer, try writing a one shot or drabble of something completely different.
Take a break and pet a furrybaby (or a slimy one idk what kind of wacko pets y’all have)!!
I hope this helped for some of you guys! I love you all so much and don’t ever give up on writing!!
KEEP GOING, KEEP IMPROVING, YOU GOT THIS!
